Edit: The world famous Transformers customizer Encline has put up a review of this pair of Optimus Prime's hands! In the video he shows the assembly process, installation, and he finally showcases how well the hands worked, holding weapons and giving various poses! Again, I am very honoured to have my designs reviewed in such an awesome manner. Link is located below!

Just added: a photo of an awesome leader Starscream custom using these hands, done by my good friend Encline!
Note: I have tested these hands in both Strong Flexible and Detail material, and I conclude SF is the better alternative as it is much hardier and is able to stand up to the wear and tear of the joints. Detail material is disappointingly unable to do so, and the joints are too loose for comfort. For better surface detail, I highly recommend ordering the hands in White Strong Flexible Polished!
A pair of posable hands for the Revenge of the Fallen Leader Starscream figure!
Each order comes with 2 hands with interchangeable core, giving customizers the freedom to mount the core with a 5mm socket to allow arming of compatible weapons, or the lack of a socket for an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Each hand possesses 3 posable fingers on ball-joints, bending in 2 places, and 2 thumbs also mounted on ball joints.
The wrist too, is on a ball joint, allowing for dynamic poses on a already awesome figure.
Due to the nature of the installation, this model is for experienced customizers only. You need a dremel, cutting knife and a strong epoxy sculpt. These are for removing the existing hands and installing the wrist ball-joints in their place.

Version 2.0
A pair of posable hands for the Dark of the Moon Leader class Ironhide figure! Each finger is double-jointed, the wrists and thumbs are also ball-jointed, and the hands still fit behind the windscreen in his alt mode!
Not for casual collectors. You will need a dremel and some skill to install these hands.
I recommend these to be printed in Strong Flexible material for maximum reliability.

Version 1.5
A pair of claw weapons for the HFTD Tomahawk figure! This design is inspired by the appearance of the Wrecker Whirl in the IDW comics, and are meant to emulate his 4 fingered claw design.
Each finger-claw has 2 ball joints and are mounted on a wrist section which can rotate 360d as well.
Because of the fist-sheath that is supposed to hide the original hands of the figure, these claws are not suitable for all figures. As a rough guideline, the width of the figure's forearm should be equal to or narrower than 12mm. Also, the figure should be able to hold a 5mm peg handle.
