Exactly the same as Al and also no ill effects to date.

Hi there diecast fan, I know your thread is a little old now but all my boxed models are stored in plastic storage containers although I have added slight vents to the lids and also each model where room is spare inside the box I have wrapped the models in soft tissues, they have only been stored this way for a couple of years but seem fine so far as I check them every so often and will continue to do so....
