Im usually not a hoarder and with the Founders Pack I will have a nice selection of mech from the start but what are some 'must' buy for you? In my case it's the following:

Raven - Specialist scout mech
Jagermech - How many autocannons can i fit on you?
Urbanmech - Well, if it will exist I will have it for **** and giggles (and specialist urban combat vehicle)

Of what is available now I will definitely get the Raven and Centurion.
If/when they become available I'd buy the Wolfhound, Battlemaster, Cyclops and Thug.
If/when we get clan mechs the Mad Dog, Nova, Summoner and Super Nova are highest on my list.

Depending on garage slots available, I don't want to sell any mech ever. I don't know how many garage slots we can have max, but I foresee myself spending all my founder money on dash hula girls/bobble heads and garage slots. I can see this game's enjoyment lasting long enough for me to eventually get one of everything!

First, I will buy all Atlas variants I need to bring my favorite one to max efficiency.

Then I'll sell all but the one I can best customize into the mech I want.

Only after that I'll explore other chassis.

Like the others said: All of them.

A better question may be in what order we're going to buy them. I'm thinking:

1) Raven - as a more "electronic warfare" focused scout
2) Cicada - to be a scout hunter and harasser medium
3) Dragon - because it looks like the Nova Cat's little estranged IS cousin lol
4) Cataphract - just because I like the look
5) Commando - for nostalgia and maybe as a flamer boat?

And then everything else as I get enough Cbills.

I wonder if founder mech will work with all wariants or only with inner sphere one [+internal/sinks upgrade of course]
If so Omni Tech Atlas wold be Huge [But I hope no Omni atlas in close future cause it would be hugely OP B)]

Otherwise I got one of my fav already
Catapult [+2x PPC, cause no Arrows T_T]

Now next would be Nova Cat but I guess I will have wait for it.

And I cant remmeber name of that one [it was in MW 4]
100 tons
20kmph max speed
It was able to mount 4x Gauss and bahzilion of rockets

Awesome, impractical walking gunplatform

To be honest, I haven't played mechwarrior for so long I have to "rediscover" the mechs. However, I do remember how much fun I had in my Daishi (Dire Wolf). So eventually, if Clan technology is released I will definately be picking one up. Otherwise, I have alot of experimenting to do. Already picked up the Hunchback with the Founders program. I enjoy loading my mechs with guass rifles and autocannons so if you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them!

Well I am already gettign a atlas so what else would I get

Centurion is a must
Battlemaster is available
Thunder is available
Catapult
Raven
Jenner
Hunchback
Many more

and will someone PLEASE give me my Thunderbolt

but there is a big list of mechs I would love to have, so we will look at load outs.

One thought, will there be a way to try out mechs. Say a arena area where you get to use stock only, don't earn a red cent, and just get to try out designs idea. Just a thought.

My favourite mech ever: Raven.
Hunchback (I love the FD design).
Centurion.
Catapult.
Awesome (is an awesome mech, pun intended).
Atlas (already have it with founder stuff, you know).
Vindicator if available (love this mech).
Everyone of the unseen if available.
Madcat, shadow cat and vulture if clans become available.
