I am still working on my X-Wing model -- but it is more of a Model Team-scaled effort. The only preview I have so far is this (...) (26 years ago, 3-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)

I'm guessing it must have some sort of "teeth" which let you set a position. I don't think current hinges (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)

Those new pieces you mentioned look like they might have a " T " bar arrangement to (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)

Assuming they are the same pieces (no reason for them not to be) that are in the '99 Adventurer's sets, then they are 1x2 bricks with a horizontal side rod, as previously seen only on 1x2 plates. There is a similar 1x2 brick with a verticle (...) (26 years ago, 9-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)

The new piece you describe, with horizontal rod, sounds exactly like what it is. Although there still may be (...) (26 years ago, 9-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)

So whatever special hardware is there, it has to go on the short-side of 1x2 (...) (26 years ago, 11-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)

Those things have quite a bit of friction. But who knows? Maybe (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)
