This is a clearance Mirage, I got my Gfs target discount as well, I am waiting till they go on clearance again so I can get them for like 2 dollars, when they get to 3 something.

The car mode without the wheels kind of looks like an updated less round version of the sweeps, I am thinking of putting the 2 laser "cylinders" on the sides where the back wheels used to be and the top gun on the blue flap part, the head will be un modded I think since the tube will be on the top outer hatch and not his head the traditional Scourge head will not be done.

I think I will make the back guns "pistols" and I am painting the eyes red and doing the "Mustache"

The Lightspeed was an inspiration, he was one of my Favorite Transformers and this kind of looks like the Stormbringer robot mode, the one on the poster, he even can hold his old weapons like on the poster, and has 2 "Attack Modes"

I like the idea; Scourge's vehicle mode does actually look really nice so far. I'm not sure about the robot mode yet; the pics are too dark to make out much detail. Maybe once you've got the moustache (and beard?) on, it may make all the difference, but I can't help thinking the head add-on should at least be alluded to, even if it's hidden in vehicle mode.

Lightspeed looks pretty nice too. Did the guns fit without modding?

Ya, the guns fit with no mods, they kind of take a little coaxing in the new holes are straight and the old guns and holes were tapered, you just have to shove them in there.

Also, after cutting off Mirage's front wheels. unless you have a sanding tool, have fun sanding that clear blue plastic, it is like rock, to get his back wheels off the easiest thing to do is get your small pliers and grab the pin underneath and push down, the inside of the wheel rim will pop then you can just pull the pin out then you can have wheels for something else, the little things that connect his front wheels stay straight even with the force of cutting them off, that blue icy plastic is hard.
