Getting my pvc bishoujo statues ready for summer!

I have been collecting figures / toys on and off through out the years. So my question is in the summer time my house inside does get quite warm/ hot with no ac on when I'm at work most of the day. Will these PVC statues hold up? Ive had figures in the past look like they getting ready to melt from the hot weather in the summer. Anyone has had issues with these or any other figures you may have owned? I might consider moving all of them to my basement in the summer months.

Keep them out of direct sun and they'll be fine. Prior to air-conditioning, my figures have withstood temperatures high as 46 degrees.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Yeah this bothers me as well... I live in Arizona where every day in the summer reaches approx 100' degrees. My air conditioner recently kicked the bucket... I keep them in their boxes and out of sunlight anyways since I don't have a lot of display room. But will this stuff melt in their containers?

I had a few playmates Simpsons figures years back moc. So when my houses reaches 80 plus easily in the summer when I'm not home, I see residue forming inside the plastic package. The toy seem ok. But the packackage inside was not. Just my experience. I'm no longer a misb collector for the most part. Now I'm just cautious about my loose PVC statues.
