   Sorry, not up on the lingo - What is a KK2 hinge? So that perhaps I can avoid them next time.


He means the Knight’s Kingdom (action fig) joints. I wouldn’t avoid them. They’re nice and strong and bloody useful.

Ah, I had no idea those were Knight’s Kingdom, since I don’t/wouldn’t own any KK. Mine came from the Creator sets - I privately refer to them as Dino-joints.

I used them because they seemed to be the correct size for what I needed, and provided lots of rotation in a small area. However, after a disastrous attempt at a non-IronMecha, I now know that those things are not suitable for all joints, and should be used only sparingly, since building around them can give unwanted results.

Thanks for the clarification.

Really the legs just look a little small for the arms, if you used the joints again in the legs and covered the actual hinge (...) (18 years ago, 9-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
