In regards to the story, just how did that friend get the info? Did Hasbro just "give" it to him? I'm sorry, but like I said earlier I don't believe in "friends in the know".

His uncle's cousin's neighbor's barber's son works for Hasbro.

j/k

None of these rumors sound far-fetched; they all seem reasonable.

Are you sure he's not his father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate?

As for the rumors, pictures or official statements, or it never happened, is not happening, or will never happen.

If only there were some kind of proof, I'd be:

"...So Excited! And I just can't hide it!"

I agree it sounds too good to be true, but if it is...HOT DAMN!!..I have been begging for Hasbro to make a DOTM Dino/Mirage, and this news says they are not just making one, but are going to have 2 deluxe, and a Human Alliance version. GOD BLESS if it's true a Decepticon repaint of the Dino/Mirage mold. PLEASE do not let this story be BS. =P~

Visiting Hasbro, that sounds about as reliable as the Twins being put on the DOTM DVD extended.

As far as the claims, we already knew about Buzzsaw, we already knew from packaging a Deluxe Mirage would eventually come. We already knew a Deluxe Wheeljack is coming.. an alternate head? that sounds way to unlike Hasbro.

HA Dino/ Mirage, I saw that coming, along with WJ at some point. The HA's finally seem to be selling decently. it only took 3 months to clear out the repaint HA wave 1. So hooray.

Well Que/Wheeljack has been confirmed for a while now, and instructions revealed the alternate G1 style head, so that's not really new. Our insider reported a Deluxe Dino/Mirage so this just further backs that up, and a repaint seems likely. We've more or less known about the Laserbeak repaint since seeing the alternate head on the his instruction sheet. The most interesting thing is the HA Dino/Mirage.

So what do you mean that it's unlike hasbro to make an alternate head? Unless you mean the deluxe will come pacakaged with another head, I don't see the suprise.

I agree with what the majority of the repliers said in this thread. we all already knew about this info ( deluxe wheeljack mirage/dino) from hasbro from botcon 2011 & SDCC 2011. Stating the obvious,what hasbro already said isn't news.

since hasbro loves repaints it's not hard to guess we'd get a buzzsaw & hasbro has a track record for doing this already.

SADLY,I don't think we'd be getting anymore new mold $29.99 human allegiance TF toys. a $29.99 HA mirage/dino seem so unlikely. as rumors are DOTM is ending soon. if hasbro was making a $29.99 mirage/dino we would have seen pics or info about it at botcon 2011 or sdcc 2011. hasbro has a track record for showing off the more exspensive TF toys way before hand because exspensive TF toys are harder to sell & need more advertisement to sell.
