(Common, the look like the come out of an old issue of Popular Mechanics!)
An amusing comparison, since I'm pretty sure most of the "future technology" ideas for Battletech were pulled from Popular Mechanics in the early 1980s.

I hope the arms aren't symmetrical. The majority of the 'mech's depictions in lore show it with asymmetrical arms like the Kit Fox and Summoner. That's how I prefer it since that's how I'm used to seeing this 'mech.

Every Clan Wave had packages starting at $30, for the light mech, with no premium time. To get 30 days premium, you'd need the level 3, which is $90.
Just want the medium or heavy or assault? F-you, that will be $55, and still no premium time.
Now with the single mech packs, you get to choose, chasis by chasis, which chasis you want and that typically comes with 30 days Premium time. Now I don't know if the Viper is going to be $20 or $30. Even if it's $30, that's still a better deal than any of the Wave Packs if you just wanted the Medium. Cause your options would be to pay $60 for an extra Light mech you don't want, or $55 for just the Medium with no bonuses.
I'd guess the problem is that comparing it to previous one_mech releases a light or a med for 20 bucks is expensive and not worth it. Forget the old pricing, they effectively reduced prices the moment they released Marauder for $20, so now the Viper should be cheaper to be a good buy, specially because it looks like it's gonna be just a bigger mist lynx (hot, poor pod space, JJs getting in the way, not really that much speed)

I've been fooled with excitement before when it comes to clan mechs (Summoner - my all time favorite mech except in this game), not this time. This will end up being a subpar mech that only those with a nostalgic love for it will want to play.

Sounds like I'm not the only one seeing this thing clearly for what it is....

I dont think so, it can Boat Light Energy and a Lot of it,
If anything its a ACH with (2Tons more Armor) (2more Energy) and (2more JJ),
it will Probably Run 10ERSL or 8SPL Builds Very well, and its Speed will help it,

Or it will be a 'Mech with some niche strengths that becomes a staple choice when you need a 'Mech to fill roles that require said niche strengths.
Like the Ice Ferret and the Shadow Cat. And the Nova. And even the friggin' Trebuchet.
