    I have some loose vintage 3-3/4" figures that were stored in less than optimal conditions (hot attic, damp basement) over the years and they are tacky/slimy to the touch now. Any way to safely clean them without scuffing the paint? Or is their plastic just naturally beginning to break down? Has anybody else encountered this with their collections?

    Plug this into Google (without quotes) - there's quite a bit of information and some videos.
