It's a pity that the model looks nowhere near as good...

I'd add Panther and Vindicator to the list of "from goofy to badass". Really, it's an endless list.

For all its in-game faults, I think the Vindicator model is possibly the best-looking humanoid in the game. It has that utilitarian workhorse look that perfectly fits the lore.

I'd play that, and I'd shoot down UAV's with the crotch gun. Get it? I'll show myself out.

body needs to be more the shape of the urbane mech though to get the lowest number of strikeable surface areas for volume (with volumetric scaling)

I agree with this and that's why I still one vindy, the avenging angel, still sitting in my hangar!

A lot of great choices (especially the Black Knight and Hunchback).

I think my favorite Alex redesign is the Catapult. I did like the old original too, but Alex's design just looks so much more aggressive and powerful, and yet at the same time very sleek.

Runner up (and more dramatic of a change) is the Raven. It went from a croissant on legs to a truly dangerous looking bird of prey.

Shame the Raven lost its iconic laser barrels in exchange for hideous square pegs... Posted Image

Golly, the dynamic geometry is so horrible on some mechs (Dragon and Commando are probably the most hideous ones though)
