Where I live, earthquakes have been running rampant for the past few days. For a normally earthquake-free zone, the near 100 we've had lately is a bit unsettling at best. Most are just tiny little Mag 2's, but we've had a few big ones, up to 4.7 so far! And they are gradually getting worse!
While fear for my safety is a given, the relevancy is in the fear for my figures. Last night's 4.7 knocked a few folks over, much to my dismay. It was only my standless ones, like the Revoltech Skeletons and Saber Casual who was bashing away at the Pop n' Music machine. Nonetheless, I panicked and have now packed everyone away. Hopefully everything will settle down soon and I can refill my now barren shelves. :<
How do figure collectors from areas that get regular earthquakes deal with it? I've heard of some sort of 'earthquake resistant shelving' but it's somewhat difficult to come by and I don't really get how it works. What would you guys do in this situation?
To end things on a better note, my Saber Lily figma came in today! Only need Saber Normal and I'll have all the Sabers. <3 Also, the super-glue trick worked wonders against Asuka's hover-boob syndrome and now I don't regret her at all. ^^

And good to hear about the Asuka. I'm curious where did you glue? was it the seam where they separate from her torso?

Someone also mentioned using a hair dryer or other heat source and heating them into place, but I'm better with superglue so opted for that instead.
