Some one get a photo of a locust and spider next to a car now. I want to see how small this is.

[Uncle Totty]

I can make an Urbie out of this.

I will call her, Urban Fox.

(Shame I will have to give PGI/IGP money to get it only THIS late.)

[Merrick]

so glad they kept the ears, it's the only light i actually like

[Alaskan Nobody]

Playing older mechwarrior games I knew this thing as The Bug (especially in mech4 with the antenna)

[Felio]

Same problem as the Adder: Firepower and speed somewhere between a light and a medium with the armor of a light. And if history is any teacher, it's probably the size of a heavy.

EDIT: I'm being snarky about the heavy thing. Just making a jab at a lot of mechs being oversized generally. Though it does seem wide, and I don't think I've ever missed a light because I aimed too high. The spider is hard to hit because it is narrow, not because it is short. The Jenner is shorter but much easier to hit.

And you can have it for c-bills in August.

Sexy looking beast. Better than the Stormcrow I preordered, but it's the firct c-bill mech, so I don't regret getting my crow over this.

From the comparison photo I put up. Its somewhere between the size of locust and Spider. Its small for a 350 tonner.

EDIT: Shar Wolf found a mistake.

Fixed that for you - which is semi-appropriate, cause it was always kinda small (if I remember right)

On the other hand it is a lot more "square" than the other light mechs - so it may be giving up height for bulk (like the Stalker)

[Durant Carlyle]

Kit Fox sure is cool-looking. Which is good, because I can't stand the Adder. At least I like the looks of one of the lights...

Yep, they are keeping the release schedule to the order of the Collections themselves, from bottom to top.

That's good, because it only weighs 30 tons.

Edit: Damn you, Shar! lol

It's actually slightly bigger than the locust (and the adder is about the same size of the jenner, so where the hell did the "heavy sized" criticism comes from).

The Kit Fox is basically a Medium with the size of a light.

Also you should not be underwlmed by the Prime config, the Alt Config of the uller are one the best of all the clan mechs, in particular B with UAC 10 and Alt Conf D with dual LRM-15 a LRM-5 and a Narc among all the awesome configs
