You cant really tell but they stick out alittle so styrene wont work i was going to put other leg together then paint it. The lego pieces are ratchet joints from a lego Knightseries that had a few knights about the size of a bionicle. I think i seen some on a Batman robot they had out...just keep your eyes open or there online lego store might sell the pieces.

hm, ratchet joints would be best for this aplication.  I wonder if they will eventually give out from the weight of the walker though?

Love this build.  Waiting to see how it works out for you, may have to emulate.  Looks like the parts are from Lego "Knights Kingdom" sets, such as "Jayko".  Good luck!

So I finally figured out what I wanted to do with that Ninja Turtle bike, I was inspired by the Lego set with the droids and the escape pod, it had a brown swoop with a sandtrooper on it so..

Finshed the other leg, the only problem is the front is too heavy and tips over so i might need a weight on the back.

Don't I know it. Family always comes first and then what you need to make ends meat. Congrats on your promotion!

Looks really good! The articulation certainly adds to the play value of the vehicle. Hopefully you'll be able to sort out the center of balance.

Wow, your mod of the AT-DP is awesome! I think many people including me did not buy it because of the lack of articulation in its legs. So I agree with Starchaser!
Hasbro can learn a lot from you! It's a shame that they cut tooling costs at the wrong end...so really nice work on this nice walker! Thanks for sharing!

Cool articulation on that AT-DP.
