semi articulate

[sgt goat]

wotcha guys! so.. I got my first joe this week a renegades ripcord.. and am buy turning him into an ARW postman for th contest..just a couple of questions please
I am slightly appalled at th limited articulation on him..next to the ARW bods he looks like hes got arthritis, which line of joes is it that sport th hand swivel? also...are there any joes with hip swivel arti at all please. ?
my final question is WHAT THE FECKIN FECK ARE FECKIN HASBRO FECKIN THINKIN WHEN IT COMES TO FECKIN DESIGN?

ahem your thoughts?

 

[K-Tiger]

Every line from PoC forward (Renegades, Dollar General and Retaliation has some figures with the hinged wrists. Unfortunately, it's not a universal point of articulation.

The only Joes I recall with hip swivels are the Renegades box set ninjas.

ahhh tiger san ye auld one stop factotum!
again my thanks for th save... man..why on earth wouldnt ye makes that a regular feature?
is there a list of figs with th wristy action anywhere please?

 

[K-Tiger]

Costs, so they say.

No list that I know of. All the figures that use the Shock Trooper arms have them, same goes for Snake Eyes v.54 sweater arms. All the Retaliation ninjas have them, but those hands tend to be useless for gun-users. Joe Colton and Kwinn have them, as does the Joe Trooper, Agent Mouse and Gymkata/Ultimate RockBlocks. Dollar General Cobra Commander has them, as does Renegades Cobra Commander. Renegades Duke has them. PoC Jungle Viper and Lowlight have them.

Hell, they first showed up on Star Wars figures, but the only one I know for certain that has them is Pre Vizula, though I'm sure there was a Clone or Stormtrooper that utilized them, as well.

Yeah, the Clone Wars clone troopers had the extra wrist articulation as well KT.

Yo Simon,

I will inbox you in a bit, since you are in the UK like me, I will see if I can dig out any fodder/figs I can find fr you with wrist swivels.

Do you have anything to trade?

Hip Swivel -

The Amazon Renegades 4-pack had this. And only 3 out of the 4! (SE, SS, Red Ninja)

For reference, I used the above SE (from waist to knees) for my 1st ARW custom figure.
