Gold Khan Collections are exclusive Clan Collections that include a Premium BattleMech with a unique Golden Camo Pattern, in addition to our most popular Masakari Clan Collection.

As of Thursday April 24 2014, there are only 50 Timber Wolf Gold Khan Collections remaining, and when they’re gone, they’re gone!

Pre-order a Gold Khan Collection to become part of MechWarrior history on June 17. http://mwomercs.com/clans

See the Frequently Asked Questions for more information on Gold Khan and standard Clan Collections. http://mwomercs.com/...ollections-faq/

Not sure if allowed to ask, but how many Gold Timber Wolf Collections were there from the start?

[BLOOD WOLF]

only 50? so im guessing out of the 50 you started with only 50 are left? JK, just kidding. Those sure do look sweet, now i wish i really could get one.

Hmmm...is it just me, or does the Timber Wolf in the picture have its arms pointing in separate directions?

I still think it's goofy to put an alleged "only x number of things" on a digital good that you can copy as many times as you want, but I realize it's just a marketing ploy in this context

[101011]

To some extent, it is exactly what they are doing with Inception/Phoenix/Revival 'Mechs. There are only a certain amount that will ever be produced, and once they stop selling them, they are exclusive. Gold 'Mechs more so.

Wow.. only FIFTY left?

That doesn't sound like some limited item to me.. especially when you know the Timberwolf is the one they sold the most of..

I was really considering buying the Gold Direwolf a while back. Im a huge fan of the Chassis and I was thinking it was going to be something special ya know?

Prolly only a handfull in the game.. but if FIFTY is running out... wow.. so glad I never fell for the "limited quantity" shit, really it's just about stating you dropped an extra $240 than you needed

I wonder more whether the uller gold pack sold at all. I mean, you could have a gold timberwolf, or a gold uller.

[Blitzace]

There is only one reason they did this, marketing. Make it seem desirable by saying there are only so many, or that you have only so much time to buy it. Gives it a sense of urgency. My feelings are summed up quite nicely by this article here. http://www.forbes.co...0-golden-mechs/

[101011]

Funny, I was not offended by the golden 'Mechs. If people want to buy them, they can go ahead. Why complain about them supporting this game?

[KGB GRU]

Face palm marketing team. One would imagine given the price it would be limited by default and doesnt need some sort of artifical limited run thrown in our faces >.>

Please spend more time getting the details about what people are condsidering buying or have already bought supporting you I.e. Clan packages with details. Were less than 2 months away, the details should already be ironed out enough to share. Warhorns? Extra modules? Targeting computers? Half of the clan tech?

What in the name of god and all things holy is this abobination!?!?

[Duncan Aravain]

Are there bulk discounts?...................

[GrandLocomon]

It looks like easter egg wrapper LOL.... I'd still want one though, but I'd rather have golden kit fox muahahahaha!

[Malcolm Vordermark]

Well this settles two of the more valid complaints I've seen raised about the gold mechs. First, the claim they were limited without actually stating the limit and second what the gold skin actually looks like.

I'm not about to buy one but I see no reason to be upset by something being sold so long as it is purely cosmetic.

[WVAnonymous]

If only you could resell them to other players. Someone could corner the market!

So much shiny instant target on target list
