To make things quick, the basic jist is that I've already bought a Kit-Fox Prime through MC, and bought the Stormcrow A La Carte Pack. Now, I'm thinking about getting a Masakari Collection Pack and was wondering, what happens to the Clan mechs I already have?

Do they become duplicated, what happens with the mech bays, or does it just fill in the mechs/mech bays I don't have and leave out the rest that I do have?

Been there, done that. They don't get duplicated, and I feel like I've blown $55 for nothing.

Damn! Oh, well, I'm still going for it anyways, just wanted to know. So, does this mean maybe I should sell the mechs I have in-game for c-bills first?

Don't do that.

Instead, wait.
PGI is setting up a thing for upgrading any AlaCarte and such mechs to a full package.

Once it does, supposedly, you can upgrade to a full package for what comes out to the total of the masakari collection as if you went straight for that from the start, without the loss of what you had already spent.

Wait no stop.

The Kit Fox you bought through MC isn't connected to the Masakari pack in any way. They aren't affected - you'd get three fresh Kit Foxes in addition to the ones you already own. As for the Stormcrow thing, there should be an option to upgrade from your A'la Carte SCR purchase to a Mak Pak, where you'd just pay the difference between the two and those SCRs you Carte'd would be considered the Mak Pak stormcrows. You wouldn't get any additional Stormcrows, but you should also get 55 bucks off the Mak Pak.

I'm sorry this was your experience. Did you email support?

@OP: I'd strongly suggest you email support. They're actually very helpful and I'm pretty sure they'll find a way to apply the $85 you've spent towards the $240 of the Masakari pack based on others' comments.

EDIT: Misread you about the Kit Fox. What these other guys said!

As 19 mentioned, you'd wind up with an extra Kitfox Prime (it will look very different from the one you got with MC).
You won't have an extra Stormcrow set, but the money spent there won't be lost either (once they have this thing set up, it isn't ready yet).

It will be announced when they have it set up.

The Kitfox Prime was through MC, so while he won't have that toward his thing (just the 55), at least he didn't spend 30 bucks to get it.

Getting the Masakari Collection for 55 bucks off sounds pretty good (Hell, that actually makes the Man-O-War Pack doable for me...ding, Mad Dog). And an extra Kit Fox sounds good, too. Yeah, I just read through the Wave 2 FAQ page and from what that says, they should have the option available later this month.

Regrettably, waiting for that option is gonna be torture.

BTW, thanks for all the replies and answers, gents. Likes for all.
