The C joint is an accessory mounting system using a rather simple 3mm bar and c-shaped clip. First used in the Revenge of the Fallen/N.E.S.T. Global Alliance series on a few items in 2009, by the time of 2010's gold-packaging Transformers line and Generations, the C joint has seen much more widespread use.
The system has been given the internal nickname "Miyake joint" by TakaraTomy employees, named after its designer Miyake Tomoya[1], who first used it on the Revenge of the Fallen Recon Ironhide toy.
