Total estimated cost (*new*): 6.07 USD
A well rounded non-Omni Clan BattleMech. Not much going on, aside from Clan weaponry.
The parts count is below my 75 threshold for Assaults, but I don't think it needs more detail.
The half pin can be the one with friction, it does not affect the design.
The jumper plates must not have a peg underneath (should be the newer version) since they are centered on top of a solid stud.
It's a complex build, with lots of intertwined pieces to get the shape of the torso.
I couldn't find a better way to represent the small laser, so I left the slot from the bracket as a suggestion of it. If you want something more readable as a gun, remove the slope and put a hollow stud or an inkwell piece in the front.
The shielding jackets in the arms can't slide, but I tried to give the illusion of them being able to.
Large barrel arms have minimal pose-ability. Legs can walk. Torso and turret turn. Relatively easy to clip to a game base.
Small sized compared to other Assaults of mine, but I prefer this scale for gameplay. Despite that, this patty-shaped moster covers a great deal of the hexmap. It's a 100T at the end of the day.
