3145 Mechs you want to see next
« on: 03 September 2014, 23:08:00 »
Just wondering what 3145 Mechs people are interested in seeing next out in Miniature. We want to get a feel for what people are interested in as we are getting ready to put together the 2015 release schedule.

Only 'mechs? I suppose I can't request the Gorgon, then... :'(

Lessee....'mechs...I guess my top picks would be the Celerity, Kheper, Sarath, and Juliano.

Sarath Sarath Sarath.

Also: the Avalanche.  Not the bestlooking mech but a demon on the battlefield

Do they have to be 'Mechs? If not my list would be (in descending order of need):
Red Kite Attack VTOL
Götterdämmerung
Prey Seeker
Stalking Spider II
Red Kite Attack VTOL
Vulture III
Tomahawk II
Red Kite Attack VTOL
Loki II
Thor II
Wendigo
Airon
Cyllaros
Harpagus
.
.
.


Oh and did I mention the Red Kite Attack VTOL? ;) (I like other vehicles too, but the Red Kite takes a lead and since you only asked for Mechs, I thought it would be enough to smuggle one on the list ;))

There would also be some (a lot of) BAs on my list, but those tend to be released as online exclusive only, so I won't put them on my list.

Pardon my saying so, but a List of those that are currently in the works would be helpful, so we don't "Overlap".  You might have a few in the early stages that us Mere Mortals know nothing about after all.   O0  Barring that, here's MY list starting with my Top 5, then the rest in no particular order.  Do my first three count as votes for vehicles also?   :D


Arion
Cyllaros
Harpagos
Lu Wei Bing
Stalker II
Raven II
Phoenix Hawk L
Centurion CN11-O (Maybe with variant bits?)
Quasimodo
Neanderthal
Jaguar
Ursa
Stalking Spider II


For BA I'll nominate:
Fenrir II
Buraq

It would also not qualify as a 3145 'Mech, since it had its Battletech debut in TRO 3085 and not the TRO 3145 series. :)
