Do the new removable / interchangeable hands bother you? I just feel like I am always concerned they are going to fall out :/

Haven't got the chance to put any newer figs through the ringer yet but they seem pretty sturdy.

I've never actually swapped out the hands, and this is as good a venue for this question as any: How do you do it? Do you just yank at the hand until it pops off?
I also have another question. If you have a figure, like say, the new BA Billy Gunn, who has a closed right hand...can you pop that hand off and use one of the interchangeable hands, or do you need to have a figure that has the interchangeable hands to do something like this? (I want him to hold a mic, but he's got the closed hand.)

The interchangeable hands seem to pop in and out easily enough yet are firmly in place once you do pop them in. I don't want to swap too often though because I'm pretty sure over time and use the peg will weaken. One of those things that only time will tell for sure.

What's wrong with the hands? Are they wobbly? Loose? Spontaneously combusting?

I give it a little bit of twisting back and forth while pulling, as I am still a little afraid of breaking it by just pulling it straight out. I've seen other people put the interchangeable hands in older figures arms, they fit but I assume they are a bit loose.

I think that the either the hole will enlarge or the peg will start wearing itself down size wise before it breaks.

They don't pop off. They stay fine. I always wore that when i can the hands, it'll be loose about i switch them.

I haven’t played with my figures in several years but I didn’t get the impression that it would be an issue. I only have the Summerslam Matt Hardy but they are both easy to swap and sturdy enough to stay in place without breaking
To answer the question of how you change them, all you do is gently pull them out

I've interchanged many of the hands, (and between eachothers) and I can catagorically tell you that they are no problem.

They seem to be a lot more solid than some other figures that have the feature so should be all good. Oh and at are age we don't play with our figures...we pose them with extreme prejudice

i play with em toss em around and pose em frequently and i think the new hands are so much better the old massive mushroom peg would get fused in the lower arm socket a lot. the new ones are just a much better design overall

It just sucks if you use the cena hands while you’re playing with them. Other than that nothing wrong with them

I was hoping someone would ask. I just got my first two figures with the new hands. I've swapped each like only 2 times and now they spin rather loosely. Giving them a little time doesn't seem to tighten them back up either. Why can't Mattel get things that Hasbro does so easily right? So many mangled face prints and now hands that can but apparently shouldn't be swapped. Took my excitement down a notch.
