A Highlander, the IIc version or a Black Watch in Northwind Highlander colors.

Baring that, the old style Stone Rhino since its no logner on the unseen list.

slightly off subject, but id like to see what the Vulture mk 2 and  mk 3 is. since they make the Mad Dog/ Vulture and then the Vulture/ Mad Dog Mk 3

whats the Mk 2? a 95 ton Vulture?
was the Mk 3 a 45 ton Vulture?
(following the Mad Cat/ Timberwolf pattern)

it would be really cool to get that filled in at some point - the Vulture/ Mad Dog has been one of my all time favorite mechs since MW2 came out

According to Sarna.net, the Vulture Mk II is the same version/variant as the normal Vulture, except the Medium Pulse Lasers were moved from the sides of the torso, to a turret like mechanism on the "chin" of the mech.

I'm sure someone else could probably be able to give some information on the Mk III version though.

I'm not gonna say "Urbanmech"  nyah

I will.  I'd wanted an Urbie since day 1 of the game.

I think it's funny that so many of the "wants" on here got fansculpted at some point by one person or another. Great minds and all that.

I would have loved a Dervish or just more old 3025 vintage machines. Urbs included.

ok Maybe not so much as a kind of mech as much as a particular mech should have had a Gear.
All of the Dark Age Riflemen Mechs should have Been "AA" ...  even more so since they were not able to have gear placed on them like the AoD Mechs.
And also...;    Only 4 factions get it... thats it????
 Not that Mercs are a "FACTION"

And note with the Zeus, the only steiner-related faction that got it was a pirate faction?

Exactly, per Herb in the unscheduled battlechat last week, the Stormhammers, Dragons Fury, Sword Sworn, etc, are pirate factions.

Well, perhaps, but, per The Lord of Nukes, God of All Things Battletech, they are "pirate factions."
And that the Stormhammers had Victor Hannan still does not count towards Steiner having a Zeus.

The House Alliance that merges those two factions kind of gives him to them, but yes--it was an egregious error to not explicitly give House Steiner a non-unique Zeus in Firepower.

Did WK ever do a Vindy for Liao? Or an Enforcer for Davion?
 I don't remember.

They never did a Vindicator, but they did do an Enforcer III unique for Julian Davion

A couple of them were in the Davion pack as well, along with Templars and Atlases (Atlasii?).

I always thought it amusing that the Uller never found it's way to the Jade Falcons either. ;)

They just never reused that sculpt after the turkeys came into the game. Par for course. Otherwise you would have had to give a zeus to the steiners and a raven to liao. Did you really want to see Sam play with a zeus or me use the raven instead of the anubis?

If it meant Ullers and Cougars for me to enjoy? I'll take that risk, sure. More goodies to play with, how can that possibly be a bad thing? ;)

Really, the initial Age of Destruction set should have included: Kit Fox and Cougars for the Jade Falcons, Centurions, and
Riflemans for the the Davions, Zeuses for the Steiners, Anubises for Liao, when Fire Power came out, it should have included
Panthers for Kurita. The lack os the re-use of sculpts for their parent factions always kind of bothered me.

Considering Kelly did not like Urbanmechs, yes. Hunchbacks were supposed to show up in Outlaws,
IIRC.

Did not know that.  Oh well what i get for hiding under a rock and know really makes me wish the set would have dropped   And I am going to say one last thing about mechs I would have like to see by saying the only mechs i really hoped and prayed would never be produced.. Lams 
would have been horrible both in game play rules and the fact the way wizkids QC was most of the mechs that could have transformed would have arrived broken but other than that my main wish IS that anything that appeared in the pc games would have found its way to our plastic miniature world

Plenty of stuff in the proper scale bro, even some that transform. Just make a custom dial.
