I doubt they'd do a LAM unless they went to StudioNue & Bandai to license the transforming mecha concept from them first. Harmony would probably still try and throw a hissyfit though. Plus they'd have to un-nerf the jump jets we already have and then its poptarts everywhere.

I think it'll be an IS omni. That's never been done before, etc. If they really wanted to blow our minds they'd need to do LAMS, Quads or a melee mech.

At any rate, I'm glad we'll be getting a new Light. However, with it being in January, that is disconcerting, as that means it will be an IS Light.

So, basically the easiest and least demanding of their resources to be able to actually deliver...

To be fair, the other options could make things a bit crazy or painful.

Never done before, 'eh? My bets are on the "never done before" bit being you buying each variant separately, and not anything about the mech being special. Because that's fitting with Russ' coyness on announcements on Twitter in the past.

Meanwhile, I still have no idea what anyone is talking about honestly. I've been playing Skyrim all day and haven't read much of the forums, so I'm just hearing people talking about Russ saying "_____" in a stream I know nothing about.

I am actually surprised the Hamato-Chi is not in the game yet.

This gets me thinking. What if the never done before thing is... a 'mech with three heroes and the MechCon announcement is another Dragon?

Just keep in mind, Russ had a way of over hyping stuff a bit. Expect small step forward. Nothing to crazy kinda deal

Russ and Bombadil confirmed that we need to buy mechpack for new content to be created. They could not however, confirm if any content was created the past 2 years.
