Now we just need MP Mirage. Seriously, what's been the holdup on him?
My guess is locating the license. Unlike other manufacturers, Ligier isn't active in the consumer automotive market, rather it was primarily active in motorsports and now in commercial vehicles and open-air sports. Then there's the (cigarette) advertising, and we all know how that went with Exhaust...
The former is probably a much greater factor. Gitanes isn't
nearly as casually recognizable in the US, and the "Citanes" endorsements aren't exactly a lynchpin of Mirage's deco anyway.

Maybe the faux cigarette company sponsor logos on his sides are making HasTak hesitant.
Did they make a Trailbreaker I'm not aware of?
No.
Should have explained further.
I have an association built in my head between Delta Magnus, Road Rage, Crosscut, Wheeljack, and Mirage because in the Diaclone Powered Convoy commercial, the Car Robots on the featured Powered Convoy's trailer are the Corvette, the Honda City-R, the "Alitalla" version of the Lancia Stratos, and the Ligier JS-11.
We have Wheeljack, we have Road Rage, we have Delta Magnus. With Skids on the way, Crosscut will soon follow. But we are still missing Mirage.
Hopefully, we'll get him soon, they're out of 85 cars minus Hoist now.
