As a generic mech, it looks good. However, I can't see it as a Marauder, the cockpit should jut out beyond the arms. This is more like a MAD imo:

After it went to the All-You-Can-Eat Buffet and porked into a MAD II.

Boys and girls, we are talking about THE Marauder. Next to the Mad Cat one of the best Mech Designs ever! (Can`t wait to have it in MWO).
So please MWs and PGI don`t change much on the detail of this iconic Battlemech if ever coming to MWO!

except by NOPT changing it, we can never have it. I would rather have one that captures the feel, than none at all, thanks.

Also, the Original can't even bloody walk. It's one of the most ridiculously designed mechs, ever, which only makes sense when one realizes it's meant to be a hopping, flying anime space robot.

As well something that makes no sense what so ever is that the cannon is an AC/5, it looks like it could be a gauss rifle, maybe even a ac/20.

I'm a Marauder fan-boi as much as the next guy.. possibly more.. but Bishop is right.. short of giving HG a metric butt-tonne of cash, we will never see the "original" BattleTech design in MWO
