Okay, so its really not all that new.  I've had this mech for about three
years now.  It originally started out very similar to the Madcat design at
the Lego Mechcommander site (www.legomc.com), but I decided to modify it.
(Its really hard for me to keep from modifying all of my mechs.) The
modifications mostly consisted of a custom color scheme, but I also did a
few other small things.  I added a full cockpit display and armor plating on
the sides of the main guns, to name a few.  I'm currently working on adding
minor details, such as heat sink vents and other details shown in other
pictures. This also involves re-designing the lower torso and back, but I
have no problem with that.  (I'm also contemplating where to put the tail
lights.)  The pictures don't quite do it justice.  They aren't the best
pictures and black does not photograph well.  That still won't keep me from
using black, though.

Note:  This will be the last MOC I post for a while (unless I find pictures
of some older MOCs).  I am not leaving, I just have to attempt the seemingly
impossible.  In other words, I need to organize and sort my collection.  I
have no more room in my LEGO area with all of it all over the floor.
