I own two and their heads stick pretty bad with the torso, and when I try to
replace them, the new heads fall off if you turn the minifig upside-down.
Why? Is it supposed to be this way?

The helmets have two places like in the new helmets, where, I suppose, a
visor can be connected. I have not seen this on any pics on the web. Again.
is this OK?

About that head-falloff thing:
<a bit off-topic>
My friend gave me a yellow minifig in school. I got very happy, but he said
"now you´ll have to buy them if you want more!". So, during the lesson, he
picked up 5 minifigs, flipped them, walked them across the table etc. until
I heard a loud "shit!" followed by that characteristic sound of a lego brick
hitting the floor. Itturned out that the head had fallen off a minifig. So,
I looked on the floor, where a red, smiling head was lying. I picked it up
and we laughed and laughed andlaughed. Well, maybe not so fun when
re-telled, this is one of those things you have to experience for yourelf.
