Do NOT get me wrong, I LOVE the extra hands and heads but when will it reach the point where it's too much? I bought a pack of 100 small polybags for the pairs of hands alone. What will we eventually do? Sell a pair of hands on Ebay? Or just fill up a bin with JUST heads and hands? What's your thoughts on this guys?

I have sandwich bags full of extra heads, hands and other parts from various figure lines. It comes with the territory. Sometimes it comes in handy as I bought a loose DC Multiverse Superman that didnt come with open palm flight hands, but the DC Multiverse Shazam had them

"How long until the Mattel consumer demo turns on a mostly popular new feature as the latest symptom in its uncontrollable inability to allow Mattel a single, solitary win?"
I don't know, what's the average?

It just wouldn't surprise me at all to see this board completely turn on a good thing, because why wouldn't they?

I'll never get tired of having extra interchangeable heads and hands.

Its like having a bunch of keys and not knowing what doors they belong to.

I have tons of plastic bags. That's pretty much it. It's not really a big deal.

If a figure I want comes with something I can't see needing, I either chuck it or toss it in the catch-all drawer, where it'll eventually get chucked.

My only regret is that the arms from figures I've collected in the prior 9 years aren't compatible with these interchangeable hands. Sure you can fill the wrist cavity with sticky tack, super glue, or squeeze them to close the space, but it's just more work.

the hands are ok I guess. I could live without them for an extra accessory or something else but they seem to pack those in when the deco isn't off the wall like they did with E63 dean, but the heads will never get old.

It's hit or miss. Some times it's cool to have those extra hands, but I too have a zip lock bag of hands right now that go to waste.

They are stacking up quickly. But I enjoy them. 3 sets of hands with EC3 seemed excessive but it's all good.

I've put my spare hands and heads into a little tupperware box. I got a bit confused the other day when I saw a pair in there that were also on my Bret Hart Ultimate. I couldn't figure out why I had two sets until I realised that the spares actually belonged to Tommaso Ciampa. I've had the same problem with Star Wars Black Series because I have so many guns that I don't know who they came with.

It won't be too many until I have enough to go back and replace all of the past Flashback and Legends figures' hands.

It wouldn't matter much to me if they stopped doing them tomorrow. I'm still old school with action figures. lol They seem to be becoming more and more like model kits. I don't even need all of the super articulation on the figures to tell you the truth. If the sculpt/pose looks good and not too static or anything I'm fine even with a small amount of good articulation.
