Tomino is an atroform, a drone with a body shaped after metahuman shape and using similar propulsion method (limbs), It's not a suit of armor, the space within its shell is filled by its interal workings, it can be adapted to contain a CCU so probably a head can fit in but the rest of the body? Rigger Cocoon is meant to be installed on vehicles or drones large enough that can be converted into vehicles. So unless you get your brain extracted from your body and fitted into a CCU no Tomino armor suit for you.
Arguable. Very arguable.
Worst case scenario, there's nothing stopping a PC designing their own and basing the design on the Tomino.

Question about MilSpec in General: Can you install Stuff like Skimmer discs in it and if so, are there any rules for such stuff?
If not, how would you handle the Armor Modification of such Cyberlimb Mods?
Yes you can. I did look this up the other day.
One character concept I was toying with was a character that wore a heavily customised mask, form fitting body armor and a lined coat. The FFBA + mask is environmentally sealed, with rebreathers/air filter out the mouth, commlink built into the help with a trode connection (or DNI via datajack - either way). Said mask would have all eye and ear mods out the wazoo and some other goodies built in. Specifically I was thinking software for judging intentions, skillsofts, etc. Other ideas involved making the suit fireproof, water proof, coating the jacket/mask/FFBA with ruthenium polymers, turning the jacket into a flying squirrel suit for low altitude jumps, etc.
I had a stack of ideas....
While not milspec armor, it was designed intentionally to be far more flexible and usable in multiple environments (and appear to be little more than run of the mill clothing).
