Keith, why not just go ahead and build your own? You don't have to wait
for someone else to tell you how! This is, after all, Lego... supposed

Keith,
This is similar to the problem that I had for years with walkers, mecha, what
have you.  I just didn't know where to start when it came to leg
articulation.  When I was a kid I just used 2x1 horizontal hinges, but when I
came out of my dark ages that wasn't good enough, as they weren't very
sturdy.  Then, one day, Lego came up with the Throwbots.  Those leg/arm
segments with the ball and sockets on either end rock.  I suggest you start
looking at those.  and if it looks too mechanical maybe you can cover it up
some-- or better yet-- it could be a clockwork dragon!  Ooooooooh.
