It has been a while. I think it was back around 1980.
I can't say what they are painted with at the factory, but from what I understand, most custom action figure makes use an acrylic, like Testors Model Masters Acryl, to paint their figures.
Long-lasting
Testors 8702 are fine tipped paint brushes that can be used and that are very reasonably priced.
No. If you have old oil paint that is failing, cracking or alligatoring, the new paint will fail as they are expanding and contracting at different rates. In order to have a good, long lasting paint job, it must be stripped to the wood.
testor models are testors of models and pocher models are reciprocals of tester models
Pratt and C2 make the most durable paint for your front door. Both companies manufacture paint that is both long lasting and weather resistant and you can have your choice of several colors.
You can buy a one-part, or precatalyzed epoxy that will give kitchen cabinets a durable and long-lasting finish. It can be found at most paint stores.

Paint it. Model paint works (Testors, found at hobby shops). Sharpies are terrible on orange tips. Don't use a sharpie. Also, you can use spray paint. Use the matte or flat black tho, cuz it works better and matches the gun.
Krylon makes a good paint that is specifically designed to work on plastic. To be honest, I wouldn't do it. The paint will hardly stick on the areas that are not fit together, and the areas that have to fit together will not fit because the paint will make them too large or too small...also the paint will definitely come off when the pieces are fit together.
Yes
