Dang again!

So I guess it's not going to happen.. :) ^_^ :) :(:(
I like the MWO models a lot better than what's out there. And would be awesome to get 6"Catapult to paint.

Er...

Why not just buy the TT model of your mech for considerably less?

'Cause the MWO models are arguably some of the best looking Battletech designs ever.

I have an 6" tall ForestryMech and 10" tall Madcat from the Dark ages line that came out... Idk when a while back.

At my dads I have a box containing an Axeman, Hunchback IIC, Bushwacker, and an elemental(?) from the old toy line lol. God those things were cool when I was a wee Merky.

IWM used to do Museum Scale mech figurines. You can still occasionally find them on E-bay.

They don't make them? Are you joking? www.ironwindmetals.com has every mech from this game plus the majority from battletech itself including vee's VTOL aero infantry and battle armor.

I would love to have static models of many of the mechs. Especially my Founders Cat and the 4sp hunchie...oh and the Stone Rhino of course :)

Someone on 4chan's /tg/ had a Cataphract mostly done for them. Far larger than TT scale but dear GOD is it pretty.
