I mean, if it's valuable and of worth in your own eyes, I guess that's what counts. Honestly, I'd probably scream my head off if any of my figures are bootlegs. I check my stuff carefully before buying, and I get really annoyed when it comes to dust too. Probably getting one of those IKEA display-cases.. one day, with slightly dimmed UV lights on top so that my figurines will be protected from dust. What I can't protect is de-coloration. =_=
Yeah I just keep them all in my bookshelf. I mean who do I really have/want to show it off to anyways? I do have real figurines I buy from the only big con around me, but that's about it. It's seriously too expensive if I really want to be picky about it. And yeah, dust and decoloration are bad, I'm pretty sure some of the bootleg stuff worsens quicker than the originals, but most of the stuff seem to be in pretty good condition overall.

Agreed. Do not like joints and crap like that. All of mine are non posable.
