Anybody have pics yet of the new-and-improved Deimos?

Is it supposed to be different from the Limited Edition that was sold at the conventions?

With due respect, the mini I saw before could use some new-and-improved - nothing wrong with the base shape, just it needed (IMHO) a lot more detailing. Good to hear if it's getting it!

I think they pulled it back earlier to add some detail to it. But I am stopping by there tomorrow on my way to work so I will ask Gordon.

It needed some modifications to height, arm positioning, shoulder size, the cockpit area, the feet, etc.  Uncertain if my suggestions were implemented as I have not heard back from IWM yet. The original was way too large and I believe the resculpt is still too big but hard to judge from the pictures.

Maybe IWM needs to open an N-scale line, with the 2nd sculpt Blood Asp and 1st sculpt Deimos in it?  :)

Neg...but resins might not be too far off perhaps.

Huh...I saw it up on IWM's site as a November release. Are they just behind on shipping?

Curious to see what they changed on the mini.

"Warriors, not war machines, are the backbone of the Hell's Horses. While others worship the BattleMech as the ultimate weapon, the men and women of this Clan see even this awesome piece of technology as the tool it is. We have held to this philosophy since the days of our first Khan, who knew that the value of the common soldier far outstripped the brute force of the BattleMech. It is one reason our Clan possesses fewer mechs than most, and has led many to underestimate our fierceness and courage. Our survival against all challengers when others have fallen proves the folly of such arrogance, and testifies to the wisdom of our founders."
