The odds of three consecutive 1s on a d20 are 1/ (20x20x20) or 1/(400x20) or 1/8000.  To put it another way they aren't so bad although where someone gets off thinking you should lose a limb for something that common is beyond me.

Besides the bit in the SECR which is a basic cybernetic replacement you would find more "advanced" options in the Galaxy at War book.  Note that more advanced stuff runs risks of rejection and possibly worse.

Since this is brought up, and since I have been a glutton for punishment at this point, I am going to ask...

Is it possible to transition any stats for cybernetics found in the RCR sourcebook "The Hero's Guide"?

I understand that including some of the stats gained by using the cybernetics would probably break the game in some ways, but is it possible to water them down and make them less Cyborg Superman-esque?

I can take a look at it over the next couple of days.  I did the same thing for RCR diseases and poisons, I think I could make acceptable conversions.

Although it might be easier to just modify standard cybernetic parts with Tech Specialist and call it a day.

Well, I mean of course, you don't have to do all the work alone. I can look at it, too. The main reason I was asking was I have a character a player created in one of my campaigns - while I used RCR - who has cybernetic arms and legs that increase his strength and speed. I wanted to convert it to where it not only fit in the Saga Edition parameters, but also not make him be a god-like cyborg.

So it seems that most of the advanced cybernetics not duplicated in Saga from the RCR simply grant a skill bonus.  My original thought of using Tech Specialist with Mastercraft Device seems to be on point.  The skills I've listed with the cybernetics are the ones that I feel could be logically associated with the limb.  The cost of these limbs includes the price of Tech Specialist or Superior Tech.  It should be noted that a GM should feel free to disallow the bonus if they feel it doesn't qualify.  For example, an enhanced cybernetic leg should grant the bonus on an Endurance check to run, but it's not going to help an Endurance check to hold breath.
