The Bowman and Hellion look totally retarded there. The Hellion looks like it's doing that ballet move where you squat and cross knees or whatever, and the Bowman just looks ugly.

Where are the stats for the Zeus X?
And the Hellion looks really bad...the Bowman looks like a box w/legs. The Snake looks ok, and the Saggitaire looks to me to be front heavy.

The Zeus-X is shown on the cover of MaxTech, but I haven't seen stats for it anywhere... But how can it be an official mini if the design is level3...
The Sagitairre probably falls over.

They made a mini...so the sheet will be there...just like all of the original unseen, (ie BattleAx, Firebee, Gladiator etc...) they had mechs and record sheets for them...
So where is the sheet for the Zeus X? And since it's a level 3 can we see more?

I think the Zeus X is going to be a Fantech design.....so I am not sure if there will be a record sheet for it or not.
But I did find this design for Mechforce UK......is this it?

Nice...still that idea of Fandesign is going to open a can of worms...but that's up to TPTB...
Still I would rather see a return of the original unseen, ie the Battle Ax, Fire Bee, origianl Vuclan etc....

They are listed on a flyer for RP that would come in the orignial box set of Battletech.
The mechs are mostly from Battletechnologies Magazine and some are form Star Date.
Star Date was at one time an offical FASA fan magazine and I have heard rumors that the first run of Battletechnologies was as well.
I believe also that HMPro has a download able file that has some of those mechs in it.
Most of the mechs were made between 1985 and 1989. I have most of them, missing a few here or there.
Still if they (TPTB) are going to make a mini for a Level 3 mech then they should release the early mechs as well.

But... but... they're the Unseen! They can't release the Unseen again unless they want Harmony Gold chafing their rears about copyrights!

Quite likely. I can tell it has a command console, and an MRM launcher seems likely for the design...
I'm not too sure about the Clan equipment, and an LB-X autocannon doesn't seem right... an UAC/20 would fit better on the design...
Of course, an ERPPC would be the best!

Uhmmm...No. The ones I am talking about were around long before HG got a hair up their fifth point of contact.
This mechs stopped being made around 1989/1990....RP stopped making the minis and even reused some of the number given to these...

It wouldn't be a LGR, because on the pic its an AC. But the reactive armor looks right. I just don't think it's Clan tech weapons because the thing is an NAIS prototype. At least, I know it belongs to FedCom, because it has the AFFC logo on the leg. Hmmm...
