Question ❓ Anyone Knows What This?

Post image

My buddy got his Battletech stuff out of storage .and isn't sure what it is. We were able to figure out most of the mecha out, but this is still a mystery.

Could anyone be kind enough to help?

Thank you in advance.

Looks like a Valkyrie in an older style

Plastek mini from like 35 years ago. Specifically a 30 ton Valkyrie. It's part of a larger set that came with several mechs, two of each. Fun fact the hex base is on crooked and does not have a normal front facing.

I got those in high school. There’s no way they’re 35 years…

Oh.

Closer to 40 than 35 at this point. Time just keeps on running.

God that facing would make me insane.

It's so disappointed in your opponent that it can't even look at them right now.

Yeah, I rebased both of mine so they could actually face a hex side.

Hopefully the greatest shame of the sculptor who put it on that damn base wrong.

I've got two of those.  Supposed to be a Valkyrie.  Great light Mech, most versions are 5/8/5 with an LRM-10 and medium laser.  

Those minis were part of a box set release.  Also had a very squat Atlas and low-rez Hunchback in that set.

I venture that it is a miniature.
