These two look pretty awesome, but I expected them to look different. I was hoping that the Zeus would look less MWO-ey like the Banshee since it's an older mech, and I expected the Grasshopper profile to be a little more streamlined with less quarterback-ish shoulders. They both look absolutely amazing nonetheless, better than the MW4 Zeus for sure!

[Mirumoto Izanami]

Awwwwww yeah.

[MechLord71]

Thank you!! Excited to see the quirks and some custom paint on these guys.

those are the ® ones the other ones are gonna look less bulky-ish mostly.

Grasshoppers legs look sweet..Zeuses missile cannon looks awesome. Nice antenna also.

[Greenjulius]

Holy crap this is amazing. I can't wait for these mechs to come out. Quirks tomorrow? I am so glad I got these mechs. I'm mainly in for the Grasshopper, but that Zeus looks really good too.

Is it just me, or does the grasshopper look like it will have a super thin profile from the side? Should torso twist like a boss, and hopefully spreads damage like the enforcer and Panther.

I expected zeus to be a bit beefier looking. but its a 80 tonner so thats okay.

I just hope it wont look weird next to the 80 ton awesome. Should be just a tiny bit taller

I bet it is still a lot smaller than the awesome.... Grasshopper looks cool, but I wonder how tall it is.

[Creovex]

Well played!!! I like them.. if they roll half as good as the Enforcer, this pack was well worth more then I paid for it!!!

The Awesome is majorly oversized, so I HOPE it looks undersized next to it. We'll have to see, fingers crossed!

If it's not smaller than the Awesome, it's gonna have some problems, that's for sure.

[Kjudoon]

Never worry about the height of a mech save for getting cover from lrms. The width and depth is what makes em squishy. This is why the "slendermechs" are the superior mechs while 'eggs on legs' are generally junk builds in comparison along with the 'barn door' style.

[LegoPirate]

zeus is awful. grasshopper looks like a strong 70 tonner though.

[Kibble]

Holy crap the Grasshopper looks just like the plastic mini in the Battletech starter set I used to have.....Do want!

Sorry clans but I now join the IS

Kidding!
