Thanks Joe!  Attaching this to mecha group for those interested.
I think we'll be putting these to good use.

Hey, what's the stiffness like on those new ball sockets?  Are they stronger
or weaker than the existing technic ball and sockets?  Us mech(a) folks are
dying to know!

I don't have the AT-TE set (yet) but you can get 2 of the the ball joints in
the Geonosian Fighter set...they are pretty sturdy, and have a bit more
resistance than the technic ball and sockets.

The attachment point on the ball is relatively small (2x2 'studprint'), tho. If
you want anything with mass (large arm, for example), you'll have to use a
technic axle slid into it for support.
