From HK-TF we have in-hand images of Transformers Prime "Robots in Disguise" Cyberverse Legion Series 3 Evac and Mirage. Evac is a movie universe character designed for Universal Studios Transformers: The Rid 3D, he we also be receiving a Deluxe Class figure to be sold at the ride's gifts shop. Mirage is repaint of ROTF Legends Class Sideways. Check these little guys out in the images mirrored below.

Pretty cool. Too bad the Deluxe Evac probably won't get a mass release.

Cool that Evac's Legion figure will be widely available, unlike his Deluxe figure (I suppose it's possible we may see him down the line, possibly in Generations). He looks quite nice, still missing those elbows though, but the arms look nice enough, unlike Arcee's. That being said, I like that the new Cyberverse figure all come with weapons and all, but it kind of sucks that they're all being reused so often. The weapons out there seem to be limited to Ratchet's knife and Bee's wrist guns (and Vehicon's gun blade thing). More variety would go a long way, like with the Commanders, all with unique weapons to fit the character they come with. Could be a cost thing, but figures of larger scales get unique weapons for the most part, so I'm not sure why it would be so hard for figures of a smaller scale (for the main characters, for the repaints and stuff like Mirage they can have reuses of those main character's weapons).

I like Sideways repainted in red, but it's still not DOTM Mirage.
I may have to get a Gobots Turbo. Still gotta have 'em though, Sideways and Override are waiting.

Yep, I'm getting that Evac.

I'm guessing this is what Sekrit Infos was referring too toy-wise. Thanks, but no thanks.

Sideways keeps on giving!

Anyways. Not so sure on the look of Evac. Do I remember his vehicle a little more sleek?

I'm sorry.... but Mirage is...... a fail here HasTak. Just fail. A little effort could have been done.... just a little. Perhaps make the arms a lil different or slightly different head..... something.

Evac looks like a win though.

A shame how Legends Mirage is just a repaint (of a Decepticon, no less!), especially given the class's track record (all three Dreads, all three Wreckers, a "true" combiner Constructicon team, Long Haul and Rampage getting even more accurate second molds, etc.)
Is Sideways the best mold for Mirage (besides his own, obviously)? Seems pretty clunky in areas.

And Evac doesn't interest me in the slightest.

I guess Ferrari just wouldn't let them make a toy. Doesn't make any sense to me.
I would have loved a Ferrari. I just want to know why they used a vehicle in the movie they couldn't get toy revenues out of.

I think Mirage out of ROTF Sideswipe would be a better choice, but we already got a red Swerve out of that toy, so too redundant. Although they could have just used the Rodimus mold for Mirage too. Hell, they could cheat and use the Go-Bots\Spychangers Indy car.

Give it a red paint scheme and I'm down.

Mirage? Definite pass...the mold is just awkward already. I'm quite excited to pick up Evac now if I get the chance, he looks great. I really dig both modes, even if the vehicle is a ball of nonsense. It's a damn cool looking ball of nonsense.
