i'm at work and dont have my files in front of me but if i remember right its said that his leg was cut off below the knee making walking easier with a fake leg.
but there is a shot of him in a gold leg with it above the knee. i dont know if raptor mentioned something about that, its artist error, or just my bad memory. if someone can clear up my foggy memory that would be great. i plan on working on a custom here shortly while i'm working on a new boat at the same time. i have the parts just want to make sure i do him justice |

Billy's leg was lost just above the knee. Special servos and gears developed by Fred 4 (builder of Cobra Commander's Battle Armor suit) gave Billy the ability to move and walk easier. There are numerous examples of customs of Billy, some with a prosthetic leg and some with out. I say do not worry about the small issues, as long as you are happy with your custom. I made a Billy but had the artificial leg on the wrong side, but I still like how he looks so I left it.
