Huh, that's weird. That's the exact same bags and logo of bags I got from Gtzip.
The websites look identical too. Same company? G.T. Bag Company - Recloseable Plastic Zip®Bags GTZIP.com - 2 Mil Lock Top Zip ® Bags Wholesale |

For the gtp bags, how do you verify which types are acid free?

Polypropylene I believe is the acid free form of plastic.

4x6 for the bulk of the collection. 6x6 for figures like Jungle Viper, Hulk, Archangel, etc. that need a bit more width.

I do the same thing. Acid Free bags put in those exact shoe box bins. I put my figures standing up though. For my Cobra Army Builders, I use the bigger flat 8 gallon bins.
https://www.target.com/p/sterilite-1...l/-/A-13794492 If you stand them up, you can get about 130-150 figures in each one. I separate my factions with cardboard inserts. These bins are bigger than the Shoe bins, but a good way to store army builders if you went a little crazy on them like I did.

Note: acids free is just one of the steps to preserving your figure to the extend that you can. Keep them away from light, sun light particularly, extreme heat and extreme swings in heat. Keeping the figures in the bags within bin should insulate them from natural annual temperature swings. HHFF, The one’s labeled Ultra Clear are the archival ones. Yeah I think that’s correct.

I use GTZip too. You get a thank you call from them the first time you order from them. I like that old school business touch.

Plano and Flambeau both make large clear cases that hold 12 4” figures and include adjustable dividers that supposedly help prevent rust. I actually have several for sale on eBay as I am selling off my collection.
