A practical reference for adult collectors. Apply the checklist to the actual model and situation; this article does not replace the manufacturer’s instructions.
Weight, storage and handling
Plan the entire route from delivery to storage, including stairs, doorways and the work surface. Compare the packed weight with the product weight. Support the object evenly and follow model-specific joint limits; ask for help rather than relying on an unsuitable stand.
Comparing two alternatives
Compare like with like using the same headings. Leave unknown cells blank instead of guessing, and note which differences would actually change your decision.
Build a useful record
For your notes, record the exact model or offer, the date, the source of the information and any unanswered question. Keep private order numbers and contact details out of public posts.
Next step
A useful conclusion explains what is confirmed, what remains uncertain and what should happen next. Update the record when new evidence changes the picture.
Community questions
Which detail would change your decision? What did you verify directly, and what would you still ask the maker or seller?
