| Hello, I'm new and I apologize in advance if I'm wrong to post this request;
I've read several suggestions but would like a clearer answer on who's
been there before if possible.
I'm starting my collection of minifigures (all after 2014 except 3 between
2000 and 2011), which will be "locked up" and protected inside a display case
not exposed to the sun and inside a bookcase therefore without sudden changes
in temperature (and will not be touched again).
I'm asking for help figuring out (being new to Minifigures collecting) if
there is a way to dam or prevent cracks on minifigures, I've read that
some individual pieces (like 93095 or 99780) may take the stress off the minifigure,
have you ever tried? how do you make sure they don't crack? and then they
all die or not?
Thanks in advance to everyone

Pretty much if it’s assembled it will possibly crack one day. I’ve heard that
some people keep the minifigures unassembled to prevent cracking

The only problem I have ever had with cracking for display-only minifigs is for
Iron Man and War Machine, both of which have polycarbonate clear 1x1 round bricks
in the feet. Both cracked at the back of the legs.
I display (and in some cases pose) over 1000 figures in rotation. They are the
only ones that have cracked due to being assembled for me.
Others have cracked when being played with.
