OK, so a few years ago I had this crazy idea of cosplaying as R-ALF, the cyberwolf in some of the Project Future stories. Canonically he is feral, but a cosplay would have to be anthro, so I did some tentative designs for an anthro cyberwolf, which can be seen here:

...anyway. Long story short,
sofox got a 3D printer, and almost as a joke I suggested creating a cyberwolf fursuit head, figuring he'd laugh and say "no". But he didn't. And a few months later, with significant amounts of work from both him and me, R-ALF came to Confuzzled 2019. Thanks Sofox, it really turned out awesome!
Owing to time and sanity constraints, we only produced the helmet, which required a bit of work my end to finish it off, including padding (car wash sponges), the glowing EL eyes and even a pitch shifter for voice modulation, which I built on veroboard using an ATMEGA 328P, and wrote the software myself. I also fitted a BeQuiet fan into the head to keep things cool.
The tail was made largely from flexible hose intended for use with fish ponds and was completed about a day before the convention. For the rest, I used some robotic-looking paintball gloves, and Harley-style boots. Since CFZ2019 had a spy theme, I also brought the Johan Cross trenchcoat.

Well, the original concept was kind of "Let's take a bunch of parts and slap them together", i.e. the android chassis fitted inside the black armour, with a cyberwolf head (R-ALF's?) stuck on top. I'm certainly not ruling out it becoming canon eventually... them being Daryil's elite guards is a distinct possibility, but it would send The Powers That Be into hysterics.
The rationale is that the cyberjags and cyberwolves are feral and have no hands, which to some extent limits the amount of mischief they can cause. The jaguars could have their claws blunted, for instance. But putting them into a body with hands allows them to manipulate objects and weapons which they are presently unable to do.

PETG, I think!
There was also this, which I only noticed after I'd made the compilation: https://twitter.com/tapewolf/status.....82386400870400
