COVID-19 - AS LOCKDOWN ENDS, GROUPS OF 10 FIGURES ALLOWED TO BE DISPLAYED ON SAME SHELF

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

COVID-19 - AS LOCKDOWN ENDS, GROUPS OF 10 FIGURES ALLOWED TO BE DISPLAYED ON SAME SHELF


In case you missed it, there's been a global pandemic hitting earth over the last few months. The W.H.O. (World Health Organization, curiously unrelated to Doctor Who) has given instructions on how to avoid spreading the virus, for example, by washing your hands often, wearing a facemask and "social distancing" (which is pretty stupid, it should be 'physical distancing', you're still allowed to talk with other people, as phones, messenger, Skype or Zoom exist...).

So far, no rules have been given for action figure collections, so with the lockdown starting to end, ToyFarce News thought it would be time to dust up a few rules:

- Action figures can be displayed on the same shelf as long as they are not more than 10.
Groups of more than 10 figures are not yet allowed, and there should be a distance of at least 1ft (30cm) for 1:6th scale figures, and 0,5ft (15cm) for 1:12th scale figure (to be proportionate with the 6ft (2m) distance for people).

- Your figures should wear a facemask to be sure not to spread the virus.
Even if the mask does not agree with your style, remember that it is important to wear one. We know that Batman figures are generally unhappy, considering the mask covers the only part of their body that is exposed, but if everybody wears one, your collection will remain safe.

- For the figures already wearing a mask or a helmet (Darth Vader, stormtroopers, mandalorians, predator,...), make sure that the proper filters are used  for them. We do not know how the virus would react with organism from other planets, so better safe than sorry. If anybody has any idea how the mask go on a Xenomorph, please let us know in the comments.

- Vintage figures (from the early 80's or before) are in the highest risk group and should wear a mask at all times. The ones that are still MISB (or mint in sealed box) should be safe, but any loose figures will need to be protected.

ToyFarce News hopes that everybody is safe and healthy, and doing their part. We know it's not a laughing matter, but if this article can brighten the day of at least a few people, we will consider it a win. Stay safe, and let us know if you have more ideas ideas on how to protect your collection!

BREAKING NEWS:

HE-MAN TESTED POSITIVE FOR THE CORONAVIRUS, NOW IN QUARANTINE

It is a sad day in Eternia. Late last night, He-Man made a public announcement to confess that he had tester positive for Covid-19, and will now be quarantined for a few weeks.

It is common knowledge that the most powerful man in the universe get into close combat with his adversaries, and he must have been exposed to the virus during his latest fight with Beast-man or any other of Skeletor's henchmen. It is unknown at this moment if anybody in Snake Mountain has been tested, but we can assume that they will not get tested and probably try to continue spreading it, due to them being evil.

In a surprising turn of events, it was later revealed that Prince Adam of Eternia, the son of King Randor and Queen Marlena, also tested positive for the Coronavirus, which confirms what everyone expected: He-Man and Prince Adam really are close friends. We were told that Orko is working on a cure for Covid-19, but there is timeline was provided to us as to when we can expect it.

ToyFarce News wishes them a speedy recovery, and hopes that everyone stays safe and healthy in those uncertain times. Also, wash your hands.
