How do you know that this Mirage is based off of G1 Mirage and not energon or the name was just slapped on "that red car over there" so hasbro could keep the rights to the name? I love how people get excited over a character we know nothing about based off of a split second glimpse in a teaser trailer. Its one thing to say "oh he looks badass" or "is he a con cause it looks like hes about to kill that human" but its another thing to say "hes gonna hack **** up stealth assassin style" or "hes going to be the most badass bot in the movie" when theres nothing showing this at all. But on another point, I think Sideswipe & Mirage should switch names.

well based off the comic that has a connection to the movie, Mirage will have the same cloaking abilities as he did in G1. It would be pretty stupid to have Mirage in the movie without his main ability, and he has the cloaking ability in the upcoming DOTM game. I think he will use that ability to destroy decepticons like an assassin because they wont see him coming.

Why is it that every time I see this:

I think of the Crisis Fortress from Kamen Rider Black RX? (seen here in Decade & W Movie Taisen 2010)

I'm actually not really fond of the new blades but I'm glad to see new pictures of the character.

He never freaking said that it was based off G1 Mirage. Frankly, I doubt he cares. The damn robot looks cool, so he's excited. I'd be excited too if I saw a cool ass looking robot.

Maybe Sideswipe and mirage can team up? Then that would be epic

I think they do.....called autobots....ha ha ha. Just saying.

Are they for sure blades or still transforming? He looks awesome though.

Nope, and to make sure I looked back, and he's taking out those swords, not transforming :-)

He's like ninja man or something.

I'd like to see Sideswipe and Mirage share screen time with each other, it's like a Sword Smackdown against some protoform nublets.

Well, probably because in the books and Illistrations and comic he turns invisible, and the stealth force toy is Transparent? not to mention those are cleaerly assassin blades. my only worry is that, since he's a ferrari, Michael Bay might think it funny to give him an italian accent.

They do. They also look like the Decepticon's ship in TF Prime.

Actually, with the tank in the backround, and the cowering humans he's facing, maybe the humans are attacking him? I mean, just like they attacked sideswipe when he first came to earth. maybe, just maybe, I dont know.

by **zwann** » Fri May 27, 2011 4:12 pm

I don't know..

MIrage looks like he's about to attack that guy.

Maybe in the end, the ferrari bot is a Decepticon, like what Bay said the last time.

Blue repaint in 3... 2... 1... Oh. No toy yet.

Could be, but I'm more inclined to think they're attacking him, or he's just on the defensive. There was a casting call for men to play Iranian soldiers in the film, and the desert-ish setting and the one guy seemingly wearing a turban/head-scarf facing Mirage would seem to support that theory.
