This is still a huge bummer, his figures look terrible without them imo. He doesn't wear tape, it's just silly.
Did they ever acknowledge why they would stop using something that was already tooled?

They stopped using the already tooled gauntlets because roman changed the shape and style of the gauntlets, so using that mold w the new figs would be outdated. They should have made a new mold though

You'd think with the millions of Roman figures they make they could afford to make some new gauntlets.

I got a couple old Roman basics with gauntlets for dirt cheap and arm swapped the elites. So now I can swap out the vests whenever I want and it won't clash with the gauntlets. Best of all, it helps with the limp wrist problem that every single Roman figure I ever bought has. Seriously, I have like 8 Roman figures and they all have a limp left wrist.

It sucks because if you do swap the gauntlets they don’t have the color design on them. Imo the molded gauntlets completed the Roman figures.

For me it's the right arm that has the limp wrist, always have to get a replacement because it snaps off after awhile
