Guys, dig deeper. Battletech in late 80s/early 90s, inspiration for Rhonda Snord is undoubtably Wendy James from Transvision Vamp.

She does have "Heavy Metal" printed on the side of her Gauss Rifle -

Sure looks like duel AMS on the back of its legs?

[Tragos]

Probably just decoration.

Why not go for "Defend and Avenge" on the other barrel shield?

To defend: this is the pact.
But when life loses its meaning and is taken for naught...
then the pact is to avenge.

All you have to do is take out the left shoulder/torso, and you have effectively stripped most of the weapons off of the that config I see.

UH OH
4 Energy - (1 LT, 3 LA)
1 Ballistic - (RA)
2 Missile - (2 LT)

Yeah...but your gauss can explode and won't damage anything! ^^

Hope "Snord" isn't in the title.

Now that Ive figured out how to do it, it should blare this in combat:

So is this the next hero mech ? It's odd that we would get it before the standard highlander are released but I imagine the sales would be pretty good so people can get a jump on playing the highlander

Let's hope. I will gladly trade them a Flame and a Yen-Lo for this baby.

REALLY hope the Highlander is a very GOOD mech. kind of getting unhappy that the last 3 mechs are not as good as the ones that came before. Spider is bad (no debate). Treb is not AS good as the centurion A (admit it) and the Jager can do some cool loadouts but it is just so EASY to hit those side torso's that I do not enjoy piloting it. On top of all of this I DO NOT like the stalker.
I have NO FUN piloting it, even though it is a very powerful mech. If highlander is sad and worse than the awesome (don't hate on awesomes! I love them ) . Then im going to have a bad time. But lets hope not eh?

TL;DR
I want the highlander to PWN so I can throw my c-bills at it!

[Mechwarrior Buddah]

Isnt the Jager's head huge too?

It looks a lot like a rifleman to me

Colors: Black / Black / Grey

It looks horrible to me. It has not captured the brutal bulk of the concept art. How did this concept art become this model?

I think the 3D model has acquired a rather matronly chest

If Yakety Sax is an option--which it definitely should be--they should also make this as a hero Raven.
