You might be on the right track. The note on their website said "something from the RoF's past, aimed at the heart of the FSA", or something like that.

I'd love to see her torch turned into a heat lance.

OK I finally saw the Russian bot. I admit that it looks cooler than I expected. I like the typical smokestacks on the "backpack." I also like the shoulder turrets/mortars. And the battle ax looks awesome. The viking theme hits my soft spot.

I love the French faction, but I really can't wrap my head around that model. That being said...post up some pics once you have it painted!

It's silly, and that's most of the point.  Will do on the photos.

Recently got operation shadow hunter for the Blazing sun models. Also picked up the Giant robot of Doom (Ayakashi). Hoping to be able to make it this sat to either play with it or start painting it. Looks pretty great to boot to.

Picked up a Hochmeister and Coeus.  I particularity like the Coeus as it's the MechaGodzila equivalent of the larval stage of Mothra!!! 

I imagine tiny CoA people singing songs of hope adoration as it particle accelerates the hell out of enemy units.

The Coeus reminds me of some of the bugs that infested the house I lived in my last year in college. The model kinda gives me the creeps.

Apparently it's a huge pain to assemble

Cool, you should quake in your boots then if I ever get it on a table (based on what Stephan said, might not be that easy to do).

How would you rate the assembly process for the Hoch compared to other DW stuff?

Pretty easy.  Best assembled with magnets so you can use all the weapon load outs.
