Any specific ones? Most of the IS mechs are nostalgic to some crowd, besides maybe the Cataphract. They've either been in a battletech game, feature predominately in a book or two, are one of the 'premier' faction exclusives, or were included in at least one Battletech starter kit.
There's a bunch of IS mechs I don't recall from any of the older MW games. Panther, Javelin, Crab, Kintaro, Grasshopper and Banshee, for a start. I can see on sarna that most of them were in fact featured in some of those games though, so I guess I've just forgotten about them. But I certianly wouldn't count them as iconic, based off the games alone. There are many IS mechs that stand out as iconic to me, just based on the old MW games. The Mauler, Timber Wolf, Summoner, Cyclops, Centurion, Raven, Catapult and Jenner, just to name a few.
As for Clan mechs... I don't think I remember Night Gyr from any MW games. And I had never heard of the Huntsman before.
