      Try to imagine what it feels like the first time you clean Commander Koenigs top? Will the black run? There's only one way to find out.........

              Like most of you here, I like them clean, so I don't mind that. I would prefer that if something has been repaired or repainted or repro parts added, that the seller state that, but I don't feel like cleaning would require a mention.
              Nostalgia just ain’t what it used to be.

                that's kind of like asking a stamp collector if he likes unused stamps or ones that have the cancelation mark on them.

                Some philatelists will tell you that a stamp should be collected as it was intended to be used, canceled on an envelope or post card.

                Most collect them unused and in perfect condition.

                Personally, I would clean the suit.

                  It's sort of like asking if you were going to buy a vintage Big Wheel, would you want the one that came straight out of a guys musty basement, with dirt and grease on it, or would you want the one some guy took a few minutes to wipe down with Windex or soap and water.

                    I prefer cleaned up, but as the price increases, my desire for background on what was done to the figure also increases. "So, did you clean up that Wondergirl figure with Woolite or gasoline?"
