TTM21 here, would be much appreciated Robbie!
I have no clue how it's supposed to work, but apparently Entropy is also willing to make the chestpiece/neck for Bill the Butcher too. Just not sure how the head is supposed to work with that as well.

Ok fellas,here is what I came up with that requires no cutting or drilling.
Im a big fan of magnets. I use them all the time in my scenic models and I, like many, have used them to attach heads to bodies.
You will need two sizes of rare earth magnets(silver not black).
The bigger of the two I got from Ace Hardware. (12mm disk)
The smaller from Harbor Frieght.(8mm disk)
First pull out the post of the neck. I used pliers with a little bit of hairdryer.
Glue in a stack of the smaller magnets. I put a drop of thick super glue in then add a magnet repeating the process till I get to the top. Technically you only really need to glue one magnet to the neck, but gluing them all keeps them from pulling out when you remove the head. I use super thick cyanoacrylate glue for everything I do but you can use epoxy or what ever.
Use the bigger magnet and glue it to the inside of the head. The big one is wide enough to not go into the drilled hole. Smaller ones can be used but you will either need to fill the hole or stack enough so that it can get close enough to the next magnets to hold.
And that's it. I don't know if this makes the head sit at the correct height. Height adjustment may require more modding. I think cutting down the neck may be required if you find it sits too high. Only thing I made permanent on this was gluing the big magnet in because I'm not going to use this body for mine.
Hope this helped.
