I expected the Grasshopper to be just a smidgen less wide, but it still looks to be XL friendly.

Thoroughly enjoying my mechs thus far. These next 2 look to be fairly awesome.

Looks like it got the Centurion treatment: slim torso, but beefy shoulders which allow it to twist without clipping.

Hitboxes will be important but fingers crossed. Thankfully, it's an all energy mech so XL shouldn't be mandatory.

So I'm gonna ask the real question here since no one else is.

What's the special geometry? Because I can't see any blue bike\luggage racks on it

I think it's at the legs....there seems to be bars there.

Zeus is pretty, would like to have the shoulder pad/barrel to be more prominent.
The front profile looks a little like an Awesome.

[LT. HARDCASE]

Zues is shaped like a way superior Awesome.

It would definitely look cooler with more prominent shoulder pads, but if those guys are too big then they become big bullseyes on the Mech. The bigger those things are, the more they direct the eye to themselves and make the STs larger. I think the final art was a fantastic compromise, and it makes the mech look a little more realistic imo

"better than the MW4 Zeus for sure!"

I couldn't agree with you more on that statement. Even though, I'd love the MW4 version, and don't get me wrong here, this version should prove more balanced and more capable of deal dem damage points

Looks amazing PGI.

I'm prob going to go with the 2 5ac/ 2 ppc on the zeus. The Hopper has low points, prob another wub-mech or LL boat. Curious how they'll perform.

[Dawnstealer]

Gorgeous. I'll be dropping both into my CW deck even if they're awful.

True, but I also think having bigger shoulder would make them a great brawler.
The huge arms and side torso are great to roll damage, AND still can zombie with an energy hard point in the CT.

Still trying to get a refund on my Resistance pack because of the poor Enforcer model. Been trying for a month now and MWO support refuses to answer or communicate with me. Buyer beware is all I have to say.

What was wrong with it? It looks like the art they showed.

[kracked49]

The Zeus looks amazing. I'm glad that I ordered it. I needed a new assault mech series.

Several people have made complaints about the head proportions being different

Not really worth getting a refund over I would say, but others have other opinions (naturally)
