Meh, boring, but curious how it will look.

Hmm...imagine if it was produced out of very pure, highly polished ulexite.

dude, that would be awesome! And since its not a flat surface, it'd have a cool Predator warping effect when it moves! But impossible... they may as well say they'd make it out of fabachay(?) eggs. Awesome mental visual though...

It is going under the Binal Tech line, but it's unclear so far if it's die-cast or plastic. Mind you, it would have to be at least, mostly plastic as I don't think they can make see through die-cast metal

Clear die-cast would be awsome. I hope its Alt because i only seen the regular Mirage alt once at walmart. I still cant find the new Ravage alt or Rumble alt. So lets hope that this is an alt and they will ship him with the other two.

The other two alts are already shipping. This is an E-Hobby exclusive. Overseas...as in japanese exclusive. I can't recall any E-hobby exclusives being released over in the US...ever. But maybe my memory is faulty or something.

Nope, no eHobby for us, ever...

It's actually not going to be clear. It will have a cloaking device and will be made of alien metal that allows near invisibility.
Now where did I put that thing.....

That would be kickass. It would be a must buy then.

of course it is going to be plasic or of some kind of plastic

You know... logic don't get much clearer than that.

Often we debate which company is better Hasbro or Takara. I think Takara is going to up Hasbro again if their Mirage clear version comes off well.

Well, let's see they released a Hot Rod version of it, with fishing pole accesories...cool. (Winna' Takara)

Now a clear Mirage to represent his 'mirage' ability...how sweet! (Winna' Takara)

Now if Takara truly wants to win in that comparison, they need to include a fishing pole with Mirage that can work on the other arm of Hot Rodimus...so you can have a pair for your KP Rodimus...of course.
