It's been awhile and my Search Fu is weak. That and I'm at work but I'm curious...
Have there been stats published on Kid Stealth before?

Nope, just his legs

Is it just me, am I, like, not cyberpunk enough, or do other people also find the whole metal velociraptor legs thing just - FREAKING DORKY?
I mean just too much to be cool.
On one hand - badass roleplaying? But on the other, if there were not Kid Stealth in the fiction, and your player said, "Hey, I want these bad ass dinosaur legs that let me run and jump and stuff (and who cares if I never get laid again - and I'm instantly recognizable to every law enforcement officer from Seattle to Caracas)," wouldn't you just write the freak off as a munch?
Admittedly, though, the story of how he lost his meat legs is pretty killer.

The legs were interchangeable with another set of more normal legs for when he was off the clock if I remember correctly.
Blowing them off in the first place to escape should give you an indication of his mental state.

Wow, I didn't know that those Kid Stealth legs were named after a real character.

You aren't cyberpunk enough.

Quite. If real life Punks get an absurdly large number of facial piercings and giant rainbow then fictional Cyberpunks can certainly get digitigrade cyberlegs.

Likewise. When I first read the entry on Kid Stealth cyberlegs, I thought, "What the hell is stealthy about digitigrade legs?" Which book has Mr. Stealth's tale?

I believe it's Wolf and Raven, a compilation of short stories about Wolfgang Kries who is a partner of Kid Stealth. I don't think Kid Stealth has his own book per se.
