The models look fantastic. The Black Knight is on the top of my "To Buy" List. I can't wait to see an update to the Upcoming Releases List. Crossing my fingers for the Tiburon and the Wendigo. I've got a Sea Fox unit to build.

OOOOOO

More TRO 3085 stuff.
I hope there is a Goshawk II and Arctic Wolf II on the way.

The Ares and the Hatamoto! Oh my!

Seriously, the Dragon does have such wonderful looking toys.

Look, dude, when you are a real mechwarrior you don't need to get all dressed up in cooling suits and cool helmets to work on your mech. You just strip down to your 1980s panties and crop top vest and start wrenchin' it.

Wow!  Beautiful all around.  Can't wait for the Black Knight.  The others will test my willpower on penny-pinching.  I don't have any Republic forces, but an Ares looking half as good as that render would be tough to ignore.

These are obviously FedSuns 'mechs, but what unit would they be from?  I like the color scheme but I can't seem to match it up to anything on the CSO website.

I believe that it is the new/old Davion Guards paraide colors.

indeed, i am glad to see them moving back towards this far more attractive version of the scheme.  IIRC they also have the Guards in these colors on the cover of the new AlphaStrike book.

In old school Davion Guard colors, I can see it at that angle.  I'm not so hip on the handless Black Knight, i guess MW4 redesigns that WizKids implimented are unforunately canon.

Indeed,  I like them so much myself that I just ordered the new Atlas and Black Knight minis to try my hand at duplicating that paint scheme.    ;D

Is the Black Knight available on the IWM web store? I did not see it.

The Black Knight isn't slated for release until the end of the month. It will be another 30 days before it is on IWM's site to give LGS a chance to sell the initial ones.

Maybe I am the only one complaining, but the Ares is waaay to big. Even if it is a superheavy mech. ******, this monstrosity has the footprint of a dropship! If that's the case, it should have about the same size as the clicktech monstrosity.
Is this taking scale creep into new dimensions?!?

Gunz, if you mean TRO 3145 RotS...that's a Prefect. The XTRO RotS has not been released yet.

You are not the only one. All I can say is that scale is a topic of heavy discussion behind the curtain. Have faith, all will work out in the end ;)

D'oh!  You're right.  I did offer several other new mechs already along with the Atlas and I forgot exactly what I ordered.  Oh, well, I will order the Blank Knightas soon as it's actually available.   ;D
