I know I'm alone here, but I'd love to see an Owens that isn't droopy and has arm variant parts.

I'll probably just be voting for the primitive rifleman

I don't know how many nominations I'm limited to, but the Juliano just mentioned is up there on the list.  So is the Anzu and the Carronade.

Kansas City players, or people who are just passing through the area, come join us at the Geekery just off Shawnee Mission Parkway for BattleTech!  Current days are Tuesdays in the afternoon and evening.  I can't make every single week, but odds are pretty good that somebody will be there.

Carronade is already available; i'm staring at one about 80% finished right now.  >:D An Anzu would be cool as well.

I'll throw in for the original Goblin tank from TRO 3026/3039.  It's the only tank from that book that has never had a mini (Barring the APCs and that engineering... thing).



My vote is for an AC2 Carrier. I have never seen the damn thing but have used the hell out of it.

Love the ideal of a resculpt Flashman.  The vandal gets my vote too and I'd like to see a resculpt of the Black Hawk KU based on the 3058U art.

Argh! too many to choose from. OK,  1st requests;
1. Re-sculpt the Highlander, needs to be bigger, more imposing.
2. Re-sculpted Imp to match improved artwork
3. Re-Sculpted Flashman, I agree with other comments on this one.

New Sculpts;
1. Hawkwolf
2. Primitive Dervish
3. Primitive Rifleman

I could go on and on, but I think this is a good start.

I could get behind these ideas. I wanted to suggest a new blood kite but was to hesitant to do so!

My vote could go this way as well.
Perhaps getting the Tiger Tank sculpted would be good too.

Haven't posted here in a while... but my vote goes to a resculpted Flashman as well. I can get behind having a Gauntlet done for us Lyrans, too.

You are going to give a top 3 from that list to go on the poll. Not going to have a poll with that many items on it.

Beside the before mentioned Resculpts on the Op: Klondike artwork, i would be happy to see a fixed Galahad 3 and Bane 4. While i love the stats of both, the sculpts are definitely one of the worst in BT history out of many reasons.

And a question regarding the very first Titan. Would it be possible to do a mini for that ? Or is the source of the artwork questionable ?

There would need to be existing official art for a new mini to be done since it would be totally new and not just a variant.

I think for the original Titan there is only one artwork in the old BattleTechnologies.

Thats brilliant that you are taking suggestions and then voting.  So my suggestions are:

Templar III- great assault mech
Centurion Omni- another unique looking that is also functional for many games
Saracen Mk II HCV (Or Saladin)- to pair with the scimitars that are out
Gossamer VTOL- pretty good unit, but mostly because its a very unique looking VTOL (so is the Hawk Moth II lol)

Yeah, I didn't pick ALL the mechs that haven't been done yet, just the important ones I know I've seen people request elsewhere, as well as my personal preference.

B-3...whatever you do, when you do Omnis, can you please try to get some, if not all of the variant parts included. It's been hashed out, and re-hashed out on the forums that we are willing to pay a little more just to get those extras included in the mini itself.
