But I'm glad the warning was recieved. If you're buying a figure that'd appeal to that kind of person, beware of whom you purchase it from. Think of the figure as an adult magazine, you wouldn't buy an used one from just anyone.

for me, I didn't even think of the fact that it would smell or cause bacteria growth, I was just worried about any lingering remnants that could be on it, which is gross! the only figure I justify fake slime for is one Melona statue because it goes with her character, it is also pink and doesn't look like "Slime". I just don't feel like cleaning something I payed so much money for, I don't wanna pay $50 for a figure that I will have to clean, that is rediculluos to ask.shizen22 wrote:I think the need to worry about those things is greatly exaggerated as you need to clean them figures really well to get all of the slime off. As someone else already implied, chances are it'll be cleaner than when that guy got it. Another thing to consider is assuming a figure collector is that kind of person, no figure/toy is safe from his hands; even if it's not outright NSFW, a sexy enough figure would be enough to illicit a shower. Another thing to consider is that a lot of the pics out there actually use fake slime; using the real slime can be rather inconvenient as it can breed bacteria and then there's the smell so it's not something a self-respecting figure collector wants to risk. Because of that, I wouldn't really worry much about it but that's me. And before anyone gets the wrong impression, I don't slime figures either. :p
I don't mind dust in the joints, but anything else would bother me, and sometimes the revoltech joints do go back together, once I was posing Menace and her leg joint fell apart, so I put it back together and it never worked the same again, but it was a bad joint so I ordered some new joints from amiami, but it was slightly off color so I was glad it was only in her leg/hip joint were you can't see it, the joint was always slightly weak, I'm supprised it didn't fall apart soonerSonja wrote:I'd honestly be more worried about it with jointed figures rather than statues. The joints are always harder to clean when you need to, you have to actually dismantle the figure.
Fun memories of bathing dolls when they get home to get rid of resin dust...
