So obviously direct sunlight and ponies don’t mix, but just how much care do you put into display?
My G1’s don’t want to be locked in a closet anymore (albeit carefully sorted into separate totes in single layers etc) but I don’t want sun damage risk for my 3 MOC (which already have some signs of trouble with the adhesive) or some of the more rare gals I have (if anything happened to my 4.99 thrift store Rapunzel I’d never be able to replace her).
So-
Glass display case? Tinted? Wall that doesn’t get direct sunlight? How much indirect sunlight is also too much?
This wasn’t so complicated when I lived in Washington, but Southern California means I get a lot of sunlight streaming in year round so I want to make sure I don’t get my gals displayed only to realize in a year I’ve done irreversible damage.
