Hi there,
I just wondered if anyone has advice or insight as to what sometimes appears to be slightly melted or deformed bubbles on figures heat sealed with the waffle pattern. Was there scope in the factories during the vacuum in the making of bubbles or during the heat sealing process itself for bubbles to catch wind of too much heat? The effect being a wavy and / or a rippled effect to the shape of the bubble? Much like an enlarged effect that the bubbles very edge has where it meets flush with the card going into the heat sealed waffled area.
Or is this nearly always thought to be likely tampering of some sort? (Such as the hairdryer technique I've read about when trying to remove dents from bubbles).
Thoughts appreciated as I know of one I've been considering buying. AFA 80 graded, Card 85 / Bubble 75 / Figure 85
Quite similar to this pic I've attached
Thanks!
