They revealed the ComStar Command Level II redesigns and I think Im in love. If they reopen the PM I might need to double up on this one.

The King Crab, Sentinel, and Mercury are amazing

Seriously! The king crab just looks like death incarnate. and the Mercury and Sentinel got such wonderful upgrades! They actually look utilitarian.

Is that all the sculpts?? I feel like theres still a couple that they haven't shown yet, in fact theres a few I know that they have shown that I'm not seeing at all in that image (King Crab for one).

That's not all of them, no. We've seen some design sketches for a few that aren't there (like the Com Star ones).

It's possible that those are just what they have 3-D renders for at this time.

Also it includes the 10 'Mechs that are part of the Beginner/Starter box, so yeah, it's probably just everything they have right now.

The Hunchback isn't there.

The Hunchback IIC is though, second row, almost dead centre, between the Centurion and the Enforcer.

Okay, that explains the extra hump. I noticed there's two Marauders and two Timber Wolfs too. Those are different mechs too?

The second Timber Wolf is a Hero 'mech (Aidan Pryde of Clan Jade Falcon, IIRC).

Are the hero mechs any different from the base design, miniature wise? It looks like the posing might vary, but otherwise same weapons/armament, etc?

Black Widow's is different, as she had her own config for her Daishi. Pryde's Mad Cat was just a regular Mad Cat IIRC, so it's just a different pose. The other two appear to just be different posing.

no there's not likely to be given the changes in question, although I suspect a 360 view of the mini will show us jump jet ports on the back, but definatly not my first pick of the hero mechs to take

I've considered doing a lance for the 2nd St. Ives Lancers and this cinches it for me...

I've got some Capellan mechs just cuz I like having lances of each house and faction (1st St. Ives in this instance). You always need bad-guys for some of your campaign games.
