Some of them have slots on the sides so I would say, probably so. Or you could use the double ball joints they have.

Bunch of stuff, root around in the subcategories and you can find tools, spare Gundamn hands (good for TFs) and other goodies. I ordered the double-ball joints too, they look just as useful, especially for shoulders.

LOL I don't want your wife to think were funny so just a good handshake will do, and of course I will make sure all credit is put in, I'll even put a link to your jewels like you need anymore help with publicity now that your even in the PS mags, but ya know I could use the help.

Checked out the Gundam hands and The Guncannon Manipulators look like the most versatile to me so I picked them out. Here is the link as they were kind of hard to find http://www.hlj.com/product/BCL2756

Also, about the hands (manipulators) it seems I can't find those that are articulated

Awesome tutorial Jin!

P.S. Is this what you have been up to instead of more customs?
