I like your car better for Mirage, and the Humle for Dragstrip. At least there are two REAL WORLD cars that in fact could be them. WOW what a street race that would make on screen!

Mirage vs Dragstrip!

Those racers look sick. Surprised they haven't shown up in some movie yet.

Uggh...you people drive crazy (watch someone kill me for saying that):

1. The toy is not an actual Ferarri simply because Hasbro didn't want to go to the trouble to get the license from Ferarri so they can cut corners. Remember Sideways and Mixmaster from ROTF?

2. Yes, Michael Bay did say this was a Decepticon before. HOWEVER, unless you've been living under a rock since the announcement of the first film, you would know that Bay has made us aware of a "misinformation campaign" that says things not necessarily true so we go into the movie expecting the opposite of what is eventually presented. But this is not technically lying because he's told us about it beforehand. It's only meant to surprise us.

3. The fact that Mirage is not a blue-and-white race car has nothing to do with lack of common sense. It's called creativity. It's what happens when a new continuity begins in the Transformers universe more times than not. Just because a character shares the same name as one from 1985 doesn't mean he must share all qualities with the older counterpart. A new continuity creates new characters.

Now we all know that if Batman was turned red white and blue in his movies Batfans would have gone bezerk. Some things need to be kept sacred. To look at that Ferrari and not think Sideswipe is retarded. Yet the Silver Corvette, who would have likely been more acceptable to most as Mirage, is Sideswipe. With these standards I'm waiting for the hot pink sports car that shall be named Brawn.

You just pitched some awesome screen play. THATS the kind of thing TF fans really want to see. Their old characters pitted against each other in a real world setting. Imagine how killer it'd be if they had to transform to navigate road obstructions and fire at each other, then transform back to vehicles just in time to avoid falling debris... All mixed in with the screaming loud F1 engines. god, my MIND does a better job of the live action movies.

The toy is transparent? maybe he has his famous Stealth Mode

Nice car, but that doesnt envoke MIRAGE

I understand the idea that there is a new take on something when its transfered from comic to live action. But certain things when ya think of Mirage should be there: Blue & white color scheme, F1 type racer. Illusion creating ability & characteristics has yet too be shown but im not holding my breath for something remotely G1ish. Bay does what he pleases.

Wow I honestly thought It would be a Hot Shot or a Hot Rod, or a Rodimus, but not Mirage

They already got the license from Ferarri to use it in the movie, which is the hard part. I want someone to SHOW me where it says this red toy car is suppose to be that Ferrari, then I want someone to SHOW me where it says the the Ferrari is Mirage.

Well, the face that was seen on this package was seen as a prop on the set, in the same place where the red Ferrari was being used, so are you going to place your bets on Mirage's face ending up on a different alt mode in the movie? Seriously, how many other red cars are there besides the Ferrari in this movie? It's just too obvious that this toy is it.

Is it really such a horror to think that Mirage could in fact NOT BE A RACE CAR?

My God, I did NOT think of that!

[lowman_x]

My first thought with the clear red body was "They're going to have him turn invisible... sweet."

It's also a given that the red ferrari in the film is him because, if you look on the bottom of the toy it says "EUROPEANSPORTS" and seeing as how the red ferrari is the only European sports car I've seen...

My only question is this: Why does Mirage look like a squash-nosed cat sucking on a pacifier?

I just love these pictures, by the way when are you uploading more pictures?

Oh no, a zombie thread has risen from the grave! Shoot it in the head!
