I've had trouble with the shield too. I got it on fine. But I was messing with it couple days ago and his hand kept coming off with the shield in it. I didn't have this problem with my other caps. Is this...a thing for this figure? the Hand and peg that keeps doing it look like they're in working order.

Yeah, quite a number of people have been complaining about this (locally, that is).
The part is real fragile as it's a thin peice of plastic.

is the peg breaking? or is it just slipping out?
if you want a quick fix, you could cut some scotch tape and wrap the hand peg to bulk it up a bit. I know having to do this is kinda crummy

To me it sounds like it's a case of the hand not being securely attached to the peg. Sometimes it feels like it is, when it's actually not. If possible, I usually bend the hand around a bit to see if it bends with the joint, just to make sure.
But yeah, many people have reported (including myself) that the shield for this particular figure seems particularly troublesome to apply. Even ShartimusPrime, who has always easily been able to to apply strapped shields to Cap figures, stated this one was a pain in the ass to attach in his review.

Normally, what I would do if the hand does not fit in snug to the peg, is to just take a hobby/exacto knife and slice away a layer or two of the peg hole in the hand...no problem every since.
Most important is to not try attaching it by force as you risk breaking the peg inside the hand hole.

that would work if the peg is too big. But I think in this case, the peg is too small

Well, with most of my figures, I hear a slight pop when I put the hands back on pegs, I didn't hear that with this Cap so maybe it's just not secure? I don't know. It's just not as easy as with past Cap figures. I'll work with him more and see. My time has been limited lately so I haven't been able to enjoy this figure as much as my others.

In that case I think wrapping a little blu tack around the peg should do the trick

The plastic holding the shield strap broke.
But I also have difficulties with the pegs. They arent damage, though.

Hm I keep seeing that people had trouble with the shield ... I didn't at all. Sure it wasn't as easy as AOU Cap but it wasn't all that tough either ...
