The safe way to do this is with a dry cloth or very mild cleaning solvent. We cannot recommend one cleaning solvent – you need to research what solvent will remove the dirt or debris without harming your collectibles. When screening or grading your modern figures before submitting them, look for the following common flaws: Bubble dings on the interior and exterior bubble Creases visible from the front of the card An AFA 85 is typical of a figure pulled from a factory case, but these figures will still exhibit minor flaws. For more information visit the Grading Scale page. If you have a figure that’s valuable or very important to you, we recommend that you double box it when shipping it to AFA. Inspect your bubble carefully for even the smallest cracks because those flaws will greatly affect the grade your figure receives. Check all boxed items for double tape from the factory because AFA only grades double-taped items in the rare instances where the majority came from the factory that way. There are very few vintage items that AFA will grade when double taped. If you are sending in loose figures, confirm that you are sending in the correct number and color of accessories. AFA will not grade incomplete action figures in most instances.
