Is there anyone who has any suggestions or ideas for using new hands with the thinner pegs in older figures with the larger wholes? Thought about using blue-tac type of substance but don’t want to get it stuck in the wholes? Probably no good solution but figured I’d ask and put it out here. Thanks.

I use clear nail polish on the pegs to build them up.

Great question. I just tried putting the pointing finger from the Royal Rumble Macho Man on the legends figure and wasn’t expecting it to be so loose. I keep them displayed so it’ll do but the hand kinda sits there at a weird angle. Will def try the nail polish idea.

I’ve used a small wrap of plumbers Teflon tape with good results. Works especially well on figures that already have white wrist tape as you can easily hide overhang by doing another thin wrap over the wrist tape which looks more authentic than painted tape anyways.
If i taped wrists or black/colored stuff in wrists and arms you can carefully trim off any overhang with an xacto knife

Some of them fit fine. Savage is snug for example

if it's loose try using a bit of blue sticky tack.
