Above would be the finalized artwork for the Highlander which was indeed used to make the model that appeared in the IS 'Mech pack.
Below is a rejected redesign of the Highlander for the IS 'Mech pack.

Frankly, the Highlander as it appeared in the IS 'Mech packs would look very out of place among the current crop of 'mechs, but then, so would the above version of the Highlander.
I do hope the one that ends up in game has a sleeker, much more aggressive feel to it (befitting a 90 ton humanoid warmachine well known for bounding across the battlefield on its jump jets) thank the clunky looking one posted above. I think the concept art (finalized) version by David White is a few steps in the right direction (though I suspect the final model ended up having to make concessions to the MW4 animation & skeletal system that which led to some of the changes that made it so slab faced; along with considerations for balance), and several degrees closer to fitting the 'mech.
It's the internet, so your mileage may vary.

@Corsair114: The rejected redesign above for MW4 look way better than the finalized artwork. The finalized version dosen't look like a HGN-732. Yeah...maybe it looks good, but not like a old, nasty Highlander! Nothing new...most of the redesigns for MW4 look just stupid and ugly.
I like the old TRO design.

Actually, that the finalized version looks less like the original is the point. The original looks worse than some of the stuff my cat has coughed up.

dont mind me, but i just wanted to put in my 2-cents. i really liked the highlanders gauss rifle having a longer barrel kinda thing. it was like "hey. this is gun. u liek my gun? it no liek u", like a threat in its self right? it just LOOKED like the big punch
