 weighing down shelf divers. So I have a Vatundoo, and his big head and little feet make him a shelf diver. I popped off the head and put some fishing sinkers in the legs to weigh him down.
Just wondering if putting any kind of metals inside vinyl could have any negative long term effects. If any one knows of any better way I'd like to know too.

Re: weighing down shelf divers. I'd use glass marbles instead.

Re: weighing down shelf divers. the marbles are a good idea. i know some people have used the museum wax/putty/something to kinda stick the item to the shelf, i believe that it leaves no marks on anything.

Re: weighing down shelf divers. Thanks guys, I'll get some marbles. I have a glass detolf so I'm trying to avoid any kind of wax or adhesive putty that would be visible from underneath.

Thank you Kaiyodo released Takora and his loyal muscle in '99. Thank you J.B. That is a wonderful photo! They both look great in the wild outdoors, and interesting choice of foilage too. Takora's and Chonbo's colors really stand out nicely against the pink edging of the plants. Great toys!!!
