What do you do to keep delicate toys from falling, especially the ones that dont have good balance?

I heard people saying museum wax or museum glue I don't remember the exact name, works perfect I've never used before, maybe someone can tell you

I use the little clear 3M double-sided sticky square mini tabs. They are made to hold up posters, however do a good job on figures without damagind the feet.

You can buy them at Michaels.

I have heard from old timer collectors that this stuff ruins toys.

I don't' recommend it.

my medicom misfits era danzig is down right suicidal. I could prop up the front of his feet, but we've started looking forward to him falling over, it's just funny.

Coins under the feet for balance works sometimes. We used this when I worked at J1for displaying the figures

I use somethng called 'Handi-Tak' which I bought at Michael's. It looks to me like it's basically the same as the 'blue tak''...excepting the color, or course (it is yellow)
