Do any of you know if exposure to fluorescent light bulbs like in pic related causes yellowing in plastic? I've heard incandescent ones can cause plastic yellowing.

I got some vintage stuff and whilst I keep them away from direct exposure of sunlight, my home is lit with these bulbs and I ain't got a clue if I should display my collection anywhere near these things or not.

Not sure if it will yellow plastic, but they do create heat, so the plastic might get weaker or warp. So too close mught be bad. led are better in my opinion

Luckily the lights aren't anywhere near the bulbs, so I'm more concerned with yellowing.

It's more for ambient lighting. I have a LED setup on my shelves.

>the lights aren't anywhere near the bulbs

I meant the toys aren't. Fuck me, I should be sleeping.
