How To Take Care Of Metal Soldier Figurines

By Catherine Roberts


If you have children, it is almost impossible to bring them up without buying them toys. Toys help your child not only be creative but also have fun while they are playing. At the same time, if you are a collector you will have action figures in your home. However getting a toy is one thing, taking care of the toy is another different thing. With this in mind, here are some techniques you can use to take care of metal soldier figurines.

Note that these toys need to be kept in an environment that is suitable for your child. They can be kept in a place that has moderate temperature and moisture. Though they are made of metal that seems durable, if exposed to excess humidity, temperature and chemicals they can easily get damaged.

The toys are made up of metal and when the coating is worn out the metal is exposed which may cause it to react with water and oxygen causing a chemical reaction. The best way to take care of these toys is to make sure they are sealed or locked in a dry and not too hot place when they are not in use. Exposing the models in any open place poses the danger of damage.

Despite the fact that the action figures are fun to have, you have to make sure that they are made of the right mixture of metal and especially the correct amount of lead. A good toy should be made from high-quality metals and high amount of low lead thus reducing the chance of oxidization taking place.

Since oxidization is a chemical reaction it does not mean that if one toy begins to oxidize the rest will do the same. It is important to know that oxidization is not something that can be spread to the rest of the dolls. The best way for you to detect some signs of decay is to find out what is causing the reaction which may require you to change the storage.

When it comes to storage, you need to make sure that you keep them in a clean, dry environment. If this is not the case, then you should wrap the toys in the light paper like the facial tissues, and place them in cardboard that is in a dry area. Note that you should not use any form of a plastic wrap or a container as this would lead to traces of moisture sealed with the figures.

It is hard to display your collection without it coming into contact with dust; however, you should make sure that you make a display that is as dust free as possible. When these toys are covered with dust, they appear to be neglected and are not attractive. Even so, dust is harmful on the figures since it absorbs moisture from the air.

Despite the fact that the figurines are delicate, you need not worry about handling the toys. The oil in your hands is good for the toy and handling them is good fun. All in all, it makes sure that you enjoy handling the collection.
