I had family round tonight so decided to show them what a Pleo was after a discussion on Xmas, & I noticed that while showing them RB's neck didnt move very well - he/she was still off (have yet to turn it on) so I only did a slight wiggle just to show them the head moves, but while the left side moves fine I've noticed the right side (the side it lays on when in the box) barely moved, it moved like a centimetre then stopped, it felt like there was something blocking it from moving any more.
Is that normal? ???
Sorry for all the questions!

A little bit of slack here and there is normal but please, please, please be extra careful when moving the neck (or any other part) while turned off! You could damage the cables or motors. Pleo is not designed to move when turned off.

So nothing to be concerned about? Thank god. Its the side that didnt move that worried me, I wondered if the neck was broken or something..
Oh god, I wont be doing that again then! Thankfully I literally just did the little wiggle, wouldn't even call it that, just slightly movement either side.
