While ball jointed hips don't stop me from buying a figure they don't look like they fit in with the rest of my collection when displayed.
Thus my TCW's Mandalorians get their own special shelf so they don't look as silly(to me) when posed alongside their other Mandalorian counterparts with the more sculpted, less posable, mid sections.

Hmm, I dunno, I think Hasbro have been doing a good job incorporating ball-hinged hips. Eg. Bespin Luke and Jedi Luke. It would be nice to get them on the prequel Jedis, since their robes can hide it anyway.
Ahh, and a sale can't come soon enough. $10.99 at TRU is a rip off!
