	A '''mushroom joint''' is a type of [[swivel joint]]. It is based around a peg or pin with a wide ("mushroomed") top, over which another piece can be fitted. The widened portion is what holds the swiveling piece in place. Mushroom joints are typically found in built-in accessories, such as [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys\|Battle Blades Optimus Prime's]] swords or the smaller guns on [[Bulkhead (Animated)\|Bulkhead's]] small roof-mounted guns. They are designed primarily to be an easy way to attach permanent parts while being detachable [[for safety reasons]]. In that regard, they serve much the same purpose as [[ball joint]]s, but in cases where the part in question should only rotate in one direction.

			Depending on the [[Paint operation\|paint application]]s of the figure, the peg can sometimes be unsightly. This has been particularly noticeable when used as the hub of a wheel, and even more so when other wheels on the figure have different colored pegs or simulated hubcaps/rims. The ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (franchise)\|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' (particularly ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise\|Earthrise]]'') has many examples of this ([[Hoist (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise\|Hoist]], [[Barricade (IDW)#War for Cybertron: Earthrise\|Barricade]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise\|Prowl]], etc.)

A '''mushroom joint''' is a type of [[swivel joint]]. It is based around a peg or pin with a wide ("mushroomed") top, over which another piece can be fitted. The widened portion is what holds the swiveling piece in place. Mushroom joints are typically found in built-in accessories, such as [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Battle Blades Optimus Prime's]] swords or the smaller guns on [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead's]] small roof-mounted guns. They are designed primarily to be an easy way to attach permanent parts while being detachable [[for safety reasons]]. In that regard, they serve much the same purpose as [[ball joint]]s, but in cases where the part in question should only rotate in one direction.
