Sorry roguegeek, he was 100% android, just had un altered programing.
the first one was "ASH" he was the evil one.
Goat, i dont know, major is hot man, but Gally is a fighting broad from go.
check out "Gunnm" or "Battle Angel Alita" the first is the true Jap/anime name. the second is what it was titled when it came to america

I think the cyborg is not a true cyborg until there is an actual neural connection between the organic and inorganic components...at least that's the way I understand it. I guess your bud and the pup would be rudimentary cyborgs. But I don't know if either one has an actual neural connection with the arm or the legs...I don't know them. If you look at it in some ways I guess you could say a motorcycle rider is a cyborg for a time. But there is no neural connection. Love the White Owl, Canada and this forum.
