Please stop giving your leg amputees weird robot toes. I don't know why this is as much if a pet peeve to me as it is, but there's a reason why even the most advanced prosthetics irl don't have them and its not because the tech isnt there yet (kind of).

Making that many joints so close together is very difficult and will make the foot increadibly heavy for function that can mostly be replicated by a sheet of bendy carbon fibre (what irl prosthetic feet are usually made of). That many articulated joints are hard to control (even on hands, it's a challenge, and your hands dont have to weight bare), they will add a lot of weight, and will mean more power will be needed. Not to mention the joints would be points of weakness in an area that will be, at some stages in the walk cycle, bearing the majority of user's weight. Unless your character is going to be using their prosthetic feet as hands to grab things like that villain from Kim Possible, they are more trouble than they're worth, and your character doesn't need them.

And look, if the reason you want to give them robot toes is because you have a thing for feet... why did you make them a foot amputee, of all disabilities lol? Odd choices aside, if that's the reason, just be honest about it, because why else is it always "sexy cyborg" type characters that have them?

Joking aside, the goal of a prosthetic is not (usually) to look as similar to "the real thing" as possible, it's to improve mobility. As such, sometimes the best solution will not be what looks the most "normal with a robot aesthetic twist". In the event looking like the real thing is the main goal, we already have the tech for that. Many prosthetics have silicone covers that look so realistic you wouldn't be able to tell unless you can see the top of the socket (where the artificial limb meets the real thing) and you don't have to give up much mobility or functionality to use them, since that carbon fibre sheet I mention just gets hidden inside the cover.

Signed an amputee who finds your pudgy little foot fingers unsettling and wishes people would stop giving robot ones to characters unnecessarily for the sake of making something that looks "normal".

Torn between "Agent Harper was bad because wtf was Roy doing working for the government", "Agent Harper was good because it demonstrated his skillset and gave him necessary experience for later life", and "Goddamn Roy looked good in a suit"

And Drew is going after Sami because he hates Jey. The gay drama 🤌🤌🤌

The way that I want Sami to be like, beaten down and in the corner about to take a Claymore to the face and Jey just appears out of nowhere and takes the hit.

Jey’s splayed out on the mat, and Sami rushes to his side, tears in his eyes as he asks, Why?? Why Jey? You have a title match tonight!! You don’t have to protect me!

And Jey’s eyes just barely open- of course I do, Sami 🥺 can’t watch you get hurt over me any more. You’re worth more than the World Heavyweight Championship to me.

They make out- Drew’s head explodes into rainbow confetti and there’s not a dry eye in the arena

Love wins 💖
