If anyone knows a reason why the current joints and JCMs should not become official, this is your last chance to speak up. SERIOUSLY!

My big gripe with the JCM is the collars, I think the shoulders look too rounded, and should be more square. I started to do some joint controlled magnets for a previous version. They seemed to work reasonably well, though I got distracted by other things before I had a chance to test them properly. But obviously A built in fix would be better than an add on. There again that is only my aesthetic judgement, others may feel there is nothing wrong with the shoulders.

On a more objective note the head twist JPs look like there is room for improvement, a nasty crease develops in the neck when the head is twisted. Eventually I discovered that I got much better results by implementing all of the twist in the neck, which fortunately twists very well. I think moving the Twist Start for the head up to about 0.607 improves the situation, lessening the crease. But I have not had time yet to test this along with other bends of the head and neck.

When I was making the hand poses, I felt there was room for improvement in the thumb, and perhaps the fingers. Though I forget the details now, mostly the twists I think.
