As an added bonus. i like the pointy nosed Catapult a little better than the stock one. Love them both actually, but the founders one looks closer to the tabletop mini.

For now! But as the game grows bigger and bigger, new players will come and we'll look all kind of badass in our elite Mechs

I almost feel guilty if i didn't support a company that is making me feel this excited about an online game again.

Before I go all commando on the Founders package I want more information about what C-Bills are used for and how often I will be required to fill my C-bill coffers. What exactly does "Premium" buy me that Free to Play excludes me from? Why is this a good deal? How far will $80 in C-bills get me in this game? Can we get some hard data please?
If you ask many of the die-hard BattleTech fans on the forums, we are infact getting all those bonuses for free, because if PGI came on and said "Hey, we need some extra funds to keep things going through launch, and for getting additional servers set-up and what not, can you guys help us out?" we would still throw our money at them and ask for nothing in return aside from a great product. The Founder's packages items are just icing on the cake, and will attract others who may not be AS rabid as others, but for many those packages are just a nice gift from PGI.
As for the in-game currency bonus, I read that as the MechCredits, the currency you get for paying cash. C-bills are earned through playtime, they're the regular currency for buying stuff. MechCredits are for buying special stuff, such as hula girls.
And lastly, "Premium" account status, I'm assuming, offers a C-bill, Pilot XP, and Mech XP boost for every match as long as it's active.

I'm in this boat, but I'd like someway to show my support. I'd love it if they had some form of MWO merchandise, so I could buy T-shirts, hats, coffee mugs, mouse pads, mice, keyboards, joysticks, key-chains, book stands, lava lamps, desk lights, pens and pencils, sketch pads, post it notes, headsets, laptop covers, 1:48 scale models of ingame mechs, concept art books, soundtracks, MWO themed energy shots, House flags, heck I'd even buy a complete UI overhaul for Windows 7/8 to make it MWO themed.
no to mention MechWarrior Online, the Flamethrower

Spend $60 for the elite package
Pros:
Mech
Monies
Supporting the game
Feeling badass
Possible T-Shirt
Cons:
Possible food shortage for a week
Definite and severe beating from the wife
I feel that the pros outweigh the cons!

But I will say thanks for creating the game, and fork over my $60 regardless.

One simple reason is to get ahead of others.
I am waiting for the "Free to Play" game to be rolled out, then I'll play it and see if it's any good.
I am not an investor in developers ideas and promises, waiting for a real product.
