Just an easy one:

Do we have any official / leaked / design art of the king crab for MW:O?

I love what MW:O has done to a lot of mechs, but sometimes MW:O will take a pretty squat mech (eg: Nova) and turn it into a tall mech. The King Crab looks great with its really-fat-but-really-short look.

I will clarify that this is a sketch of the King Crab by Flying Debris, the MWO mech concept artist. Concept sketches tend to go though multiple iterations before final design is reached and this sketch was done years ago. The above version was additionally enhanced by fans. Below is the original sketch, including a Crab and a spy crab

This one looks ******* epic, not "official" though.

The original concept art looks great! Unusually for me, I'm not as keen on Bishop Steiner's though (Torso too tall for me) as it looks more like an Awesome.

Side-note: Spy-crab is super amazing cool looking. Get that me that one too.

Right claw is way too big, the cockpit is too prominent, stupendous armor on the back, hope you plan running and not fighting. doa.

I do tend to be partial to that one.

That CT is going to make the Awesome look like a ballerina.

Well I am not sure what it is going to look like but unless they really mess with it, at least it should look very unique compared to every other mech in the game. I mean in the TRO it does have a very distinctive profile unlike any other mech in the game so hope this carries over to MWO.

I hope not, those up-right bipedal legs don't look as nice, makes it look too tall...like an Atlas with no skull head.
