want to know where he(?) got that chrome radar dish.

The radar dish isn't chrome - it's gold.  One of C3P0's eyes from the technic
set.
Is that model all ball joints? I wonder how it can pose with just ball
joints...I've tried them and they are too weak for me.

The model doesn't look terribly big.  At that scale, ball joints should be okay
for standing.  It looks like he used the Throwbot ball joints, which are of a
harder plastic and stiffer than the C3P0/Bionicle ball joints.  It also looks
like he used a single SW click hinge for each knee.  This model, I would guess,
was meant to be eye candy, and not something that is built Tonka tough.
