Pretty sure the answer is no, but did the Firefly from Op Klondike ever get sculpted?

Correct,  no.   But all the Klondike mechs (except the Sling, which is released as an online only mech.) would be great treats if ever released.

Yeah, I'd love to see David White's HOP-4Bb get a sculpt... Especially if it also had parts for the HOP-4Cb... >:D

Firefly was up for vote in a previous fan funding, but didn't make the cut.  Should another similar nomination process come up in the future of the fan funding, I wouldn't be surprised to be suggested and/or garner more votes to be produced.  It it a pretty nice piece of artwork.

Is this what you are talking about?  It's on pre-order for May.

That's the Flea. We're talking about this Firefly:

Wow.  Cant believe I missed that voting round.

Oops!
No idea if that's being sculpted, but there are several things in the pipeline that have not been announced yet.  I've funded three and I'm making arrangements for the Testudo siege tank.

Actually we changed the version of the flea we did. It is more inspired from MW4 version and the art is in a future CGL book. It made sense to switch to the newer art for the Flea that they would be releasing since it could be used for most of the other variants. One of those times when things align at the right moment.

David White rocks. One of my top 3 designers.
