A little contribution. Hope it helps. This is for the Sideshow Exclusive Nightcrawler comiquette.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Thanks!
Michael's is an arts and crafts store in the U.S. - not sure what all of the regions are that they operate in... not that I've gone there yet to see if they have anything like that. Given that it's more for "packing" then anything else, that may have been a bad guess as to where to find it. I see places online that sell it, but they seem to sell in large quantities and it would be way too expensive. I can't believe how difficult it seems to be to get this stuff....

I really prefer the thin foamsheets (e.g. Venom & Mystique Comiquettes or Iron Spidey or Mola PF) above wrapping in plastic baggies or plane thin papersheets.

Foamsheets also protect a little and paint doesn't rub off.
Thin paper tear/rips to easy and does tend to rub off some paint.
Plastic baggies, what is the benefit? I don't know.. It keeps dust away, but temperature changes can create some moisture I guess..

I like sideshows decision giving DD comiquette THREE tombstone nameplates, one of them 'blank'.
