[QUOTE="jedisearcher, post: 335548, member: 3582"] I've got a screwdriver set and the cover on that has yellowed. It's old, but not as old as some of the MOC's. Without having the ability to recreate the actual plastic used for the bubbles, I don't think we'll ever know what's making them yellow. Some figure are more prone than others though, so perhaps on some level the chemical reaction between figure and bubble contributes to the other factor of the poorer quality of the later plastics (not only do they yellow, they're also much more brittle, so chemically they're deteriorating and becoming more unstable).
