Not much change...

Not a lot has changed since the last update.  I am doing Highlanders in batches of 5.  Once I get the current 5 orders done I'll move on to the next 5.

I've been asked what my next mech is and honestly, I don't know.  After the Highlander I can say most heavy and assault mechs are off the table.  They are just too expensive to produce and there isn't a lot of "meat on the bone" for me. 

The economy is playing into it as well. As much as the media loves to tell us everything is getting better, I don't see it.  Gas is still up, my grocery bill is about 30% higher, utilities are up, etc.  In talking with customers overseas I know they are dealing with the same issues.

That being said, it makes it hard to get folks to commit to a $150 model let alone a $225 model. 

Maybe I'll get lucky and a commission will come in.

Keep on building, folks!
