I have read that this is not a good way to store dolls, and that the plastics can deteriorate more quickly when the dolls are tightly sealed in bags. I have also read that the plastic of the bags can sometimes react with the plastic of the dolls.
That said, it is a good way to keep accessories together, it keeps the hair from becoming excessively matted and tangled, it protects the clothing from dust and dirt, and it keeps the bugs out. The transparent bags also allow for more quickly finding dolls and figures when I'm looking for them. I have not yet had an issue with dolls reacting to the bags.
I would prefer to wrap the dolls in tissue paper before placing them in the bags. I do that with dolls that are likely to be in storage for a longer time. I also do not usually place multiple dolls together in bags. This was a quick, temporary put-away after yesterday's photo.
They're not dolls, they're action figures!
