Anyone seen this inside the bubble before- looks like there is some sort of staining on her hands - bubble is fully sealed and not a reseal

Weird that innit? :?

Is the figure tight up against the bubble? Must just be some sort of reaction with the paint.

Maybe it just 'That time of the month' :roll: :lol:

The time of the month when your knuckles spew orange gunk??

I hate that time of the month!

:lol:
 
Kids will be kids :D

On a more serious note looks like it could be a case of Polymer Degradation. To quote something I've just read

"The degradation of plastics can be said to begin as soon as the polymer is synthesised, and is increased by residual stresses left by moulding processes. This can be followed by exposure to light (especially UV), humidity, oxygen, heat, bacteria and stress. Plastics can also be contaminated by other materials, including other plastics."

Maybe this card has been stored face down (with the figure resting on the bubble) for a long time and over the years the 2 different plastics have reacted in a negative way.

That's what I said! :x

Interesting. Could be there's something to be said for storing cards back side down. Bloody science screwing around with our MOC's!

So did I , Barry

I was just too lazy to read the whole thread, googled 'polymer degradation', then copied and pasted (makes it look like I know what I'm talking about even though I'm thick as two short planks.....typical Wiganer :lol: :lol: :lol: )

"typical Wiganer" :shock:

Your not that thick, you moved away. :D

To be honest mate it was the best and the worst decision I've ever made....... just can't please some folk :lol:
