PlanetaryHub Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Please could someone tell me what the correct Lego terminology is for the cylindrical sockets and pins used to attach mini figure accessories, for example a feather to a crown: Thanks. Quote
deraven Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 It's not very exciting, but the only more technical references I've seen to that is "with Hole Ø1.5" for the "socket" and "with Shaft Ø1.5" for the pin. Anyone know if Lego has a more official label for this that's not just purely physically descriptive? Quote
PlanetaryHub Posted March 28, 2016 Author Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) @deraven Thanks. I guess, if Lego have no official name, it can be referred to as the "Ø1.5mm shaft & socket connector system" without confusion? Edited March 28, 2016 by PlanetaryHub Quote
deraven Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 @deraven Thanks. I guess, if Lego have no official name, it can be referred to as the "Ø1.5mm shaft & socket connector system" without confusion? Well, I think that's slightly less confusing than "that little nub at the bottom of headgear and Friend's animal accessories" or something. But it would be nice if there was something easier like "micro-stud and socket" or something. Quote
The Sarge Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Accessory pin and accessory hole are what I'd say. It should be the same for all the flames, feathers, Friends stuff, Clone Trooper gear, helmets, hair etc. Quote
