Did not think so, looked on CamoSpecs . . . is it on the schedule yet?  If not I might need to order a BSW . . .

Doesn't look like it's on IWM's schedule for this year.

Really, of all the mechs in 3145 it's the one with the most conveniently available substitute mini.

Stalker II just came out a couple weeks ago.  They released it with the Kodiak II and Tomahawk II.  It was their second quarter run.

And as someone noted, this is a BA taxi. Really, most weapons are in the arms, legs are open to stuff like jump jets... it is almost like the internal design for the mech is meant for configs for carrying and supporting Battle Armor against mechs and other vehicles.

The Prime must certainly work well with critseeking BA, I admit that I never tried that. I'll have to give it a whirl some time.

Bit of a thread drift, but I completely missed the Stalker II mini coming out. Are there pics of it anywhere?
