Yeah, I'm gonna need a bunch of those new fleas...
Good news is the lab boys say the symptoms of asbestos poisoning show an immediate latency of 44.6 years. So if you're thirty or over you're laughing. Worst case scenario you miss out on a few rounds of canasta, plus you've forwarded the cause of science by three centuries. I punch those numbers into my calculator, it makes a happy face.

And that is why I trust pictures of the minis over the CAD renders. I will probably buy all four. None of the prior CAD images made me want to buy them.

Old Flea is probably closer to the MC2 art, IMHO. New Flea is much cooler. If you're buying one, buy the new one.

* Because Battletech is a conspiracy by Habsburg & Bourbon pretenders - MadCapellan
* The Hellbringer is cool, either way. It's not cool because it's bad, it's cool because it's bad with balls - Nightsky
* It was a glorious time for people who felt that we didn't have enough Marauder variants - HABeas2, re "Empires Aflame"
