You did a great job with the
big photo e. It was like a clinic in big-mech joint-tech. I could make out
what looked like a worm gear-large gear pairing for the “jumping-jack”
movement of the shoulders, throwbot gear boxes for the front-back arm swing
and leg swing, technic ball joint elbows, bionicle neck, AT-TE-style click
hinges in the knees, and technic gearboxes in the waist and ankles. I just
can’t make out the rest of the hip joint. And of course the head...

You got it all right. Except for the 29,003 right side wedge plates.
Ok the hips are a simple worm gear set up using technic triangle plates and worm
gears paired to 24 tooth gears. 2x4 plates with technic holes secure them.
See here:
Thank you sir, I’m glad you found the pictures helpful, it is my sincere wish
that people can find my work and photos useful to learn from.

P.S., I think we buy the same brand of little plastic parts drawers.

No way! Mine are 10 feet tall and I can crawl inside the parts trays with room
to spare. Plus the opening and closing motion is controled by 50 RCX’s with
DUPLO figs connected at right angles.
