    Going to get some prints of this guy's models, which are based off MWO designs, but he's done a good job modifying them to mini-size proportions.

    The Catalyst Locust is pretty gaff, but I think chopping off the oversized antennae and medium laser helped it out a lot.

    I think aside from maybe replacing the pic of the old box set with one from the new box set, the OP is pretty golden.

    Also, that and my first post were from May 2014. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

    FYI, if you're wondering:

    The next backer update clarified that they were using a Test version of the canon characters database, and so it didn't have all the final updates people had made. Accordingly, in a little bit when they do a full reload, then you can worry about accuracy. :D

    Awesome terrain, very lightweight and pretty inexpensive (I think he got the Cityscape set for 110$ or so). It really adds a ton to the game, having proper LoS blocking.

    Ooh, I gotta update my section for that. I had a bit of a windfall at the beginning of the year and ended up adding a lot more to my order before they locked things in.

    Edit: alright, should be up to date for me now. Sadly, the only want/trade match I see is Tox's Night Star, but I don't seem to have anything I'm willing to part with that he wants. Since I'm getting the pack with all 4 legendaries, if I get lucky with the free Legendary blindbox and it's another Natasha or Morgan, then we've got a deal.

    The clan & legendary salvage boxes are probably going to be where things open up for me. I'm already getting the entire invasion 16, and the legendaries pack, so hopefully I get stuff other people want in the blind boxes.

    They have redesigns coming for most, but not all, of the 24 Inner Sphere battlemechs that were in the starter boxes for a long time. I'm getting most of them, but I'd like to trade for the couple remaining (Zeus and Trebuchet off the top of my head). Hoping they eventually do the others (I <3 the Clint & Whitworth for entirely stupid reasons).
    1. Commando - AGoAC starter/IS Retaliation Force
    2. Spider - IS Support Lance
    3. Jenner - IS Striker Lance
    4. Panther - IS Striker Lance
    5. Assassin - not yet
    6. Cicada - not yet
    7. Clint - not yet
    8. Hermes II - not yet
    9. Whitworth - not yet
    10. Vindicator - not yet
    11. Enforcer - IS Urban Lance
    12. Hunchback - IS Urban Lance
    13. Trebuchet - IS Fire Lance
    14. Dervish - not yet
    15. Dragon - IS Support Lance
    16. Quickdraw - not yet
    17. Catapult - AGoAC starter/IS Retaliation Force
    18. Jagermech - not yet
    19. Grasshopper - IS Heavy Lance
    20. Awesome - AGoAC starter/IS Retaliation Force
    21. Zeus - IS Fire Lance
    22. Cyclops - IS Support Lance
    23. Banshee - IS Heavy Lance
    24. Atlas - IS Direct Fire Lance

    I'm also hoping they'll remake the remaining Clan Unseen, that is, the ones FASA commissioned Victor Musical Industries to design for the 3055 Tech Readout (both the redesigned anime mecha, and the ones that weren't based on anything). Standouts are the Jenner and Rifleman IIC, which are AFAIK the only Mechwarrior 2 mechs not getting a new mini. But of the ones they are making, my trade priority is the Hellhound, as a fun historical anecdote.
    VMI-designed Second Line Clan Battlemechs
    1. Howler (Baboon) - Clan Ad Hoc Star
    2. Incubus (Vixen) - Clan Striker Star
    3. Horned Owl (Peregrine) - Clan Striker Star
    4. Conjurer (Hellhound) - Clan Striker Star, aka the Wolverine IIC (but clanners don't say that word, so they renamed it)
    5. Vapor Eagle (Goshawk) - Clan Striker Star
    6. Glass Spider (Galahad) - not yet
    7. Black Python (Viper) - not yet, not to be confused with the Viper (Dragonfly) 40 ton omnimech
    8. Stone Rhino (Behemoth) - Clan Heavy Star
    9. Bane (Kraken) - not yet
    VMI-designed Inner Sphere Refits (original IIC series)
    1. Locust IIC - not yet
    2. Jenner IIC - not yet
    3. Phoenix Hawk IIC - not yet
    4. Griffin IIC - not yet
    5. Shadow Hawk IIC - not yet
    6. Rifleman IIC - not yet
    7. Warhammer IIC - Clan Heavy Star
    8. Marauder IIC - Clan Heavy Star

    Every time they send out the updates for the "here's the new designs we're working on for "x" star/lance" I'm always disappointed when they're not showing off the Stone Rhino. It's my number one "I have to see how they reworked it" mech.

    So the Clan Invasion coronavirus update is basically, "expect delays, and more information when we have it"

    I ended up cashing in my canon character. (Just wasn't feeling it, and it ended up becoming weirdly stressful? Anyway...) So they had sent me a unique URL to the Catalyst store that would reflect my credit.

    A sale, I thought, good time to cash in for some maps and some PDFs!

    But the link they sent isn't store credit. It's a "discount." And you can only apply one discount to an item. So I can't use my character "credit" with the sale.

    Oh well. I'm mildly irked by this, but not really. It's no one's biggest problem right now and hopefully the 20% sale will juice some actual cash sales to help out Catalyst and its employees right now.
