I'm aware that some of the robes and jackets may stain the figures. I have a stained Nikolai, Yoko, and Martel. But do ALL robes/jackets stain figures?
I ask because I'm not a MOC collector. I like to take them out of the package and display them. But will I run into the same problem by keeping the robes/jackets on my figures? Will I end up with a stained masked Elite masked Cody if I keep his jacket on him? Or a stained Kerry Von Erich?
Also, does this only affect the arms of the figures? Or the torsos as well?

its hit and miss but the stains on the arms can be cleaned with a little acetone thats what i did. unless they have tattoos. it also appears to be happening to those ones that have been sitting for a long time. like i said it can be fixed its not the end of the world

Mostly I'm concerned about my figures that aren't currently stained, but wondering if they will eventually become stained by displaying them with their robes/jackets on.

Wash the garments first to get rid of the excess dye and you should be fine displaying the figs with their gear.
