    Anyone use it before???

    I was walking into a BB&B with Viv yesterday and noticed this stuff in the "earthquake kits" section... I think it's just white tack that you roll into a ball and place under whatever items you have on shelves and such to prevent them from easily falling over...

    'Course it won't prevent anything from falling over in a big 'quake, but it seems like it would work for smaller shake ups or mishaps...

    I was concerned on whether or not the stuff would discolor the plastic on TFs though...

    Anyone know???

    I had poster putty and I was using it for TF feet back in college. It gets the feet pretty sticky and tacky, you've got to clean them off with, I dunno, some soap or Goo gone if you use it.

    I mean, it's not going to make the TF's defy gravity (trust me, I tried posing them on walls) but it's good to keep some of the more delicate fellas standing (like Swoop, for example.)

    Well, I guess you've got to store Tarantulas and his arachnid pals somewhere when you run out of shelfspace ;)

    Transformers, Spiderman style!

    Ive always found, with delicate figures, or ones that dont stand too well, try to position them behind sturdier figures, preferably of similar stature though.
