I managed to snag a sealed box of Citadel Miniatures last week on eBay, the Ships Crew box set.
Imagine my glee of being able to own again, a set of figures unopened since they were made all those years ago!!!
Unfortunately, sixteen out of the twenty are covered in some kind of dark gray powder or soot, which rubs off slightly when the figures are handled.
I've contacted the seller three times and have had no reply, so I am at a loss to what to do. Is this is a known problem, do lead figures go bad like this? Can it be fixed in some way, perhaps some cleaning agent to remove the gray material without damaging the figures?
