*Looks under his Firestarter's foot.*

Depending on which way that is facing, it could also be a Firestarter. Particularly given that one toe is larger than the other two. Though it doesn't quite seem large enough.

I'd guess Cicada as well.
(though for reasons I have not yet figured out, my first reaction was Griffin :()


Actually that's quite true... Griffin is very likely. I don't think it's rounded enough for Cicada which is why I was looking at Firestarter.

If only there was a 'tale' that gave a hint as to which direction we might be facing compared to the foot print.

Nope!

Griffin footprint looks nothing like that (or at least, none of my Griffin leave prints like that)

Ah you're right. My Griffin Feets. Firestarter then!

Because Cicada is guessed.

It's totally unclears! :(

Still say Firestarter or Griffin. (My pics weren't clear enough and I still can't find handy spots where the feet are perfectly clear.)

Spoiler

but sometimes had to walk through it a few times (giving it time to clear) to really check it.

I still think that's a Cicada.

It should be the Firebrand's though :D

It was a Cicada. PhoenixFire55, Shar Wolf, Uite Dauphni, luxebo and Bront got it. This one was too easy. :ph34r:

Picture added, Links added, highscore updated.

Next mech is coming soon. Thanks for participation!

Not possible. :ph34r:

But feel free to post pictures of similar footprints. In this case we should not do another contest with the similar ones.

Ooooh you picked a tough one - lots of mechs with very similar (if not identical) footprints to that....

I'm leaning toward the Thunderbolt or Jager.....
mmm....

Jagermech?

Impossible to tell, those square ones all look the same. Random guess... Thunderbolt.

There are (sometimes?) little differences - the gap in the Trenchbucket print being an example - or the little bits on the side being different (maybe?)

Most of the time ya don't get clear prints though - which makes rememberin which ones had which "bits" a pain. :)
