Yep. That’s pretty much it. Though I use the needle-nose pliers to also pinch the forearm bracket where the wrist joint enters, in an attempt to prevent the peg from popping out again. Sometimes it works. I like the additional character pics you posted to show how you did it.

I agree, nice new character, hope to see him deployed in some scenes.
In my experience this technique works as a way to simply attach the wrist peg back in place, but it fails to make it secure or lasting -- that can only be achieved if the metal brace (under the silicone skin) can be kept from moving backwards and easing the lower arm's clamp around the wrist peg.
You can also put a few drops of Super Glue on the part that goes back into the wrist. i had to to this with my Wonder Woman. Then it will never come out again. Just make sure the peg is straight when you glue it in.

Thanks for the tip, Ephiane!
