Are those metal bb's or those little silver cake decorating balls?
I heard having metal bb's inside vinyl is a bad idea but maybe not?
Now I'm just rambling...
Super nice pick-up.

My only concern would be from possible metal oxidation staining of the vinyl... I'm sure the exposure to air is minimal, but if the balls tarnish, it could seep into the pores of the vinyl. I'm completely speculating, so I wouldn't worry too much unless someone has a horror story.

The only thing I would possibly be worried about is the bb's rusting and staining the vinyl a nasty reddish brown color. Honestly though i wouldn't imagine it happening sealed in a figure inside a climate contolled house. Looks AMAZING.

Other than oxidation, over time the metal bb's could probably cause scratches and stress the insides of the vinyl.

There was a post about this a long time ago somewhere, I think it was something about the metal BBs sinking into the vinyl or something?
