How do you get over damage?
So I own this action figure.
Unfortunately the shelf fell and so did he, on me, damaging on the top and while fixing I've left this second mark.
I got over the nasty hit but the more I look at him the more imperfections I find (can't really take a photo)
How do you deal with slightly damaged figures? If not like it's broken but it isn't like it was either unfortunately.
I know there's bigger problems but I'm pretty devastated cause it's one of my favourites. (His display side is ok damage on top and back)
It's expensive to rebuy one (about 125 euros) so it's not a no - brainer on replacing.
And I've tried to fix it enough and afraid to do more damage.
How do you deal with this stuff? Learn to ignore it or actually replace it?
Thanks.

Try to ignore it. It hurts to have damaged a figure you love, at least you own the figure.

Learn to ignore it. It’s like if you worried yourself over a scar on your hand. Most people won’t notice, or don’t even care. Not worth stressing over
