    Unicron's or Primus' legs have them built-in of course. For the arms, I chose BTR(Built To Rule) Mega Bloks sets. Ironically they were TF BTR sets :)

    I just got a lot of Lego Knights or something like that, so far they hold just fine and the ratcheting is great! and reall easy to dissasemble

    I would go with Napjr suggestion.
    They're called Lego Knight's Kingdom and honestly, they work great. I used to use Bionicle ball joints but now, if I can fit a rathcet in then I use that.

    Plus, you can pick up lots of them on ebay for dirty cheap. I got a box of about 15figures (original price = $10 each) for $10 + $10 shipping.
