I've designed a new neck mechanism for InMoov to add a degree of freedom. It still needs some fine tuning but you'll get the idea.

Will do. Thanks again.
Just for the record, I don't know why Anthony posted a picture of his latest render on this thread, it really doesn't have much to do with the thread. It is not a remix of a design by me but rather a remix of the original design by Gael Langevin the creator of the InMoov robot. Anthony's design will not fit on my modification unless it is modified. I have asked Anthony a couple of times to remove it from this thread - but he doesn't want to. I just think that comments made on a "Project Showcase" thread should be about the project being showcased!
Ok one more kick at this! This part -Throat piston V2 ( from InMoov website/downloads) I referenced was designed by Gael Langevin. @Anthony, if you are going to leave your design on this thread, please change the attribution for the design you remixed to Gael Langevin. Thanks Buddy
@Anthony? What are you doing dude? This is Bob's thread... he doesn't post his stuff in your thread(s). I think you should have some respect....
Hey Bob. I started printing this but had to abort it. I realized that I didn't have enough filament to complete the print. I have more on order which should be here tomorrow. I plan on starting the neck and head again tomorrow. I will let you know the results.
@ Bob, So far so good, I have the upper and lower neck joint done and they fit perfectly,
I'll make a short video when everything will be fit together.
Regarding Antony's modified Throat piston V2, its modification looks nice and is a good idea, except he should reference Gael Langevin as the original author.
