General Cleaning how do you clean figurines/anything with this kind of furry coat??
this has always bugged me so much and ive never been able to understand how
i never tried water because i was worried it would ruin the quality

That furry coat is called flocking. I found a few people who recommend a tooth brush and oxyclean.

Is that ShinShan?
And if so, why is his butt not out?

It's an anima, ShinChan is the boy on the left.
And he always gets his butt out and then his mother beats him lol

I would personally wet it and wash in the sink with soap and water if it can't survive that it's not worth keeping in my house personally

I saw a video the other day that recommended micellar water but I haven’t tried it.

I use a slightly firm makeup brush and tbh I store these specific velvety figurines in transparent boxes
