Bugle calls warhorns. Most obviously, the "Charge".

A generic looking, colorful Pony hanging item. Not at all resembling My Little Pony, due to licensing issues.

Well, Duh: A Sternsnacht Claymore

Long fluffed as hand cannon throwing rifle rounds around, it's never had a believable illo before, so feel free to make it a cut-down lever-action … Or maybe something Shirow-esk

I'm still waiting for my holographic chinese girl singing about how her boyfriend is a mech pilot.
I have been waiting since the 80s you know.

And of course the 80s pin-up posters that I need for decorating my mech....

Destroyed version's of current Mech's in game. Ones with parts blow off, scorch damage. Could be done reasonably cheep considering the content and what you have on hand model/texture wise.

I don't have any thing to suggest as cockpit item but I will share what is bugging me with those trinkets.

decorating inside may be fun but they don't do anything to help in the game

Exemples: I decorate my cockpit with a DC banner, no loyalty point boost on CW

got a small figure of the mech I pilot on the dash, no bonus exp for that mech

got Xmas lights or Halloween lights hanging on those specific holidays, no cbill boost

its not the items per say that are the issue, there is just no incentive to get them or use them. There are plenty of cool cockpit items already but if they would do something like 2-3% and they could stack, then im sure more MC would be spent for those items to maximize profit and reduce the hellish grinding.

A bullseye target sign, with "Bang Head Here" in the middle.

A Sign that has a bull taking a dump and and circle with a slash in it. NO BS!

A standing roll of toilet paper for when I crap myself in those tense moments.

A Hologaphic mech, whenever you get a kill it goes into death blossom mode shooting holographic lasers around for a couple seconds.

LCD back up camera, you know like a back up camera.

Serious items:
1. Hanging face camera (purpose is to shows the face and cockpit to a unit commander, like what you see in MechCommander).
2. First aid kit

But I personally prefer the jokey items.

"Open" Neon sign that indicates missile doors.

A holographic projection of a locked Mech (LOS makes it less fuzzy) so you can see roughly what parts and things are blown off.

A light up exclamation point that plays the little alarmed sound (Solid Snake series I think) if you're targeted.

A "rear view mirror" camera (in the shape of a rear view mirror).

It saddens me that people are asking for screen images. Those shouldn't be pay-for features. Don't let PGI think it's ok to ask us to pay for something that should've been in the game since release.
