Hey Mechyfriends,

So...I was in Toys "backwards-facing-R" Us the other day, and what do I • see?

K*Nex has secured the Mechwarrior license (Microsoft owns that line now,
right?), and has produced (what I HATE to admit) a really good looking • line.

Battle Pod...the command one, with arms...you know...every mech line has • the
EXACT same mech...). It was really tight, design wise, and seemed to yield • a

I just hit their web site...check this out: http://mech.knex.com/

OK...there's some neat wallpaper downloads and PDF posters here:
http://mech.knex.com/mextras/index.php

I'd invite you all to "Enjoy!", but it IS still K*Nex after all...

Matt
