Hi all. I am in receipt of 28 metal Battlemechs as well as some fliers and need help identifying them! I've been tasked with reassembling and painting these lovely miniatures, as bizarre as some of them are.

Pictures on my blog here: link

Thanks you for all your help!

I'm not sure that's the correct torso on the legs of M1 there. I can take a guess at some of them as they're from later in the game's history.

M22 I believe is a Razorback

M26 is an Uziel

M10 is a Gunslinger

M7 might be a Wolfhound

The fighters
A is a Thrust
C is a scout plane
D is a Cheetah|
E is a Seydlitz
F is a Sholagar

I'll keep trying to remember the others.

Wayne, the guy who gave me the models, said that it might be an easier task after they've all be reassembled. Smart guy, that Wayne. I'll probably take acetone or isopropyl alcohol to them first to clean off the black undercoat.

Thanks so much, BVtraders! Yeah, M19 needs a do-over. I must've bumped the table before snapping the picture.

Mechy MacMechface!

….What? This isn't a thread asking for name suggestions?
