Yeoman, the ugliest mech ever built.  Not even it's own techs like the look of it.

Huh!  Kind of suprised at the number of people who actually want the Yeoman.    ???

I kind of picked the IS battle armor by default, as there is nothing in this month's list I was especially deperate to get (now if they would list the Men Shen, I really need a few of those!).   ;)

<face palm> Thanks for pointing that out!

I was just on there the other day placing an order, I wonder how I missed that.  I've been putting off buying a few of those for a while now, waiting to see if it came off archive.

I know, but there's just nothing on the Archive List that I NEED or want.    :(   I've got all the Quads and T-Bolts already.   :-\ 


It would be COOL if the Goliath and Scorpion got the "Primitive Treatment", then got made into minis.   O0  I don't care much for the Primitive Wasp, but I LOVE the others!   [drool]  O0  O0   I'd never been much of a fan of the Banshee before either!

I'm kind of in the same boat.  Not a lot left from archive aside from Solaris mechs that I don't have.  So I guess I'll throw out what few I don't have.

Stalking Spider
Great Wyrm

Hmmm, now that I can afford a new mini or two I find that I don't have a Cronus or Enfield but I might need one. If they haven't been winners recently...

Hmm. 

Arctic Wolf

And I'll second the vote for Great Wyrm.

Jimmyray - Cronus won a few of months ago (came off the special return list with the recent update?).  I think it's been about a year for the Enfield.

I'd strongly disagree.  The Yeoman is a spectacular looking mech, but it just doesn't fit well with Battletech rules.  Armless mechs were a failure, and the Yeoman is underweight (also oversized for the miniature).  But put that Yeoman in Metaltech: Earthsiege / Starsiege, or CAV, it totally fits the look.

Now you want ugly...Mackie, the double-dong diving suit.

And I just realized this morning that I ordered a Cronus before it went back into archive after that win. It was on my desk awaiting assembly and I completely forgot about it. I'd still like a shot at the Enfield and maybe the Musketeer...

There are a lot of mechs that keep comming back up, every few months over and over again. Either they do not sell well when they come up or if they do what needs to be done to pull them from archive?

I don't believe there is a threshold for removing them from archive. It is one of those situations where folks put forth an idea, a unit may get a second or a third voice and the end up in the poll.  I'm pretty certain the Firestarter Omni and Challenger have made 2 appearances in the past 12 months.
