Does anyone else have a problem when they get a figure signed in black sharpie they end up fading over time? Is ther any way to protect them anyway?

I usually keep them in a tupperware box in a average temperature room with little moisture.

not much you can do except keep it out of sunlight (even reflection, through window shades, etc.).
Fading is common in autographs... as long as it's not drastic, it's completely normal.

Use a paint marker in silver or gold. Or the rarer colours like purple, pink, yellow paint markers.

Get it signed in Blue instead of black.

I'm not sure how to keep the ink from seeping into the figure, but I can offer you this advice...
From now on, use a paint pen to get your figures autographed. It will stand out better, and you'll never have to worry about the ink fading.
