It's official, hero mech, Heavy Metal Highlander, coming soon!

Will this be the first hero to be released before the chassis? Also of note its MUCH more pink than in the video, without being too much of a flaming pink.

Too bad that I'm 99% sure it wont play music. If it did, I'd definitely buy me some more MC!

EDIT: For those that dont know, it's on the front page.

PGI, if this mech blasted Elvis music every time I rode into combat, I would spend sooooo much MC for it, just to see people complain in chat.

[darkkterror]

So, they announced the hero variant before the actual normal Mech itself...

If this is a ploy by PGI to get more people to spend money and get the Hero Mech in order to be among the first to pilot the Highlander...

Dangit, I need more MC...

I can just see it now...

-Begining of the match-

Mechcommander: "Alright guys, flank down 6 line, stay together and hit them hard!"

-Six minutes later, after a crushing defeat-

Mechcommander: "Dammit, we had plenty of ECM and were out of line-of-sight, how did they see us coming?"

Highlander Hero Mech Pilot:"Sorry, that was me. They didn't see us coming, I forgot to turn my speakers off. I guess they HEARD us coming."

If I can make it say ATTENTION, RIVER CITY! I'll buy it.

That's how it is in lore. It's so ugly it's beautiful and I will enjoy shooting them.

i hope thats a decal on its gauss.

fingers crossed for decal system


PGI's dastardly plan to release the MC version of the mech first. Exclusive access so to speak.
Question is how much will you pay to have a Highlander before everybody else.?

Glam Metal.

Add integrated voice chat, and then enable this mech to tie into it and taunt other players through its pa system.
You will sell a million of this mech if you do that. I'm not even kidding. You could sleep on a mountain of money from just this mech, pgi.

No Decals until Community Warfare launches in May.

[Vite Ramen]

They usually announce the hero mech a week in advance. Does this mean highlander comes out next week? That's 2 weeks sooner than usual for the monthly mech.

[Rizzelbizzeg]

Finally, a mech with a real woman's figure, I'm tired of all the MANtlases waddling around ;-P

[Odanan]

I guess this helped a little:
