Hey Everyone,
I have been out of the collecting game for a few years. Just recently started collecting the WWE figures again. I have always been a loose figure collector. I am just curious what every one's opinions are on the interchangeable hands/fists that come with most of the figures. As loose collectors what tips do you guys have for not misplacing or losing those extra hands and fists? I'm open to any tips or suggestions!
Thanks!

I have mine on a shelf in alphabetical order so I know which is which. I have a pile of random extras though.

Attachment DeletedYou could even put them in jewelry organizer or even a small tackle box depending on how many you have. I keep all my parts and Bafs in a couple of these.

You should melt them a bit, then flatten and roll them and shape them into weiners and glue them onto the figures for that realism vibe.

I put the extra hands away in a box but I might have trouble matching it to which figure it came with.

I put them in small plastic storage containers and kind of group them by hand type, separating out for example plain hands from hands with tape or gloves on them. Also, you could probably divide by men v. women hands to I guess.

I’d like to organize my extra hands in a little storage box. I’d used to keep them in a zip lock bag

As a Moc collector I don’t care for them, I have no use for them & they look weird in the packages....they’re more for the loose collectors, they’re great for those kinds of displays

I keep all my interchangeable hands in a ziplock bag in my parts/fodder bin. If I decide to sell a figure, I just google him to see which hands he came with and pick them out.

So far I've been using the small box that the ringside display stands come in to store the extra hands and I have multiple of those boxes.

Bought an organizer from Hobby Lobby for like 12 bucks. There's enough sections for tons of my figure parts.

I do Ziplocks for each figure to keep track of accessories and etc. so I just keep them in those.
