First of all let me say I AM NOT complaining about QC. I had heard about this problem and just want to know how common it is.

Mine too. Stuffed a tiny amount of cotton wool down the side of the peg into the hole and it's tightened it up.

I use these things called Loom bands, about 20p a pack.. Basically just very small coloured elastic bands. My Joe, Owens, Rollins had loose hands so I just wrapped it round a few times. Come in all colours so blend quite well.

Mine is loose, but not nearly falling off.

Mine is perfect. Oh wait I don't have one. But to fix it you can either find a wrist stem that is thicker. I think the Triple H and Brock figures forearm molds usually get the thicker stems. But the easiest way it to put a little cotton or putty into the forearm to tighten the fit.

Mines loose as all hell. Sounds less like a random QC issue and more like Mattel effed up on this one.

Mine is super loose. I don't even collect, just buy a few figures here and there, but I've noticed some weird little quirks here and there. Super loose hand on Joe, stuck foot on Sami, some loose parts in general.
I just pose them with some of my other collectibles, though, so no huge deal. I may just glue Joe's hand.

Mine is very loose too. It won't fall out of the peg, but there is a slight gap.

The wrist peg they used is too small for the forearm hole. It needs a thicker wrist peg, I swapped mine out for a elite Taker wrist peg. It fits well, however I need to paint it white now :/ The whole figure is a let down for me, makes a great statue but a terrible toy. The articulation is garbage.

Mine has a very loose left hand, but I don't think it's going to fall out.

The loose hand is BS. You know if Bill had an a elite figure of himself (which I think needs to happen), it would not have a loose hand. Fix Samoa Joe's hand Billiam!
