would be awesome to have my legs surgically detached from the pilot seat

I just saw a really cool video on Youtube where they showed off the (potential) interior of the inside of a Sidewinder.

had me thinking that it would be absolutely awesome if the interiors of the ships were modeled and could be walked around in!

I would even pay money for an expansion like this. It would add so much more depth to these awesome ships in this immersive vast game. I started playing a couple months back and my goal right now is to buy an Anaconda because I love big ships and exploring but all over youtube I've heard a lot that people end up disappointed after buying it because it really doesn't feel like the massive monster of a ship that it is.

also an expansion/update like this would help you complete with Star Citizen when it comes out.

I've heard that a design for a fully modeled thargoid was released... so maybe something like this is in the works, but who knows.

Legs have always been the plan

Here are some handy sources

• Ye Olde Newsletter of Hyppe
• Ye Olde Roadmap
• Ye Most Venerable Kickstart Vid
• Ye Striking Launch Video of Daydreaming Devs
• Ye Glorious Badge of Lifetime Pass Ownership

After launch they got less delicious with the details. But they still prod that bear occasionally. See this spangly collection of more recent reaffirmations regarding future Legs DLC for example:

• 'The team and I all see Space Legs as the feature we will love to add and are at the top of our specification, but it's something that will not happen in the Beyond season. We will talk more about it later.' (Translated Sandro - Jan 2018)
• 'The future for Elite Dangerous is very exciting, including a whole raft of incredible features, yes including 'space legs' but so many more things too.' (David Braben - April 2017)
• 'All of the things, and there are lots of other things as well, that we want to do are a way away, because to do them well... Doing an animated character is only part of the problem, you've got to have things to do with it, it's got to be rich, and a great experience. So don't hold your breath, but when it comes it'll be great.' (David Braben - Dec 2016)

There is a purported leak that suggests the 2020 DLC is Legs...

Hope the torso, arms and head are included in that!

Space legs is coming in 2020 according to frontier's aproximated roadmap as well as the leak that has been 100% correct so far

Nope, each of those will be a separate expansion requiring 2 years of development. Left and right arms will be separate too.

10/10 would prefer a disembodied set of legs than a real model
