Remember When Mirage Was A Boat??? | #transformers Energon Mega Class Mirage Review
"Tidal Wave has been reformatted, call me Mirage"
"Tidal Wave?"
"Mirage"
"He may look different, but he's still a Decepticon. Transform"
One of my all time favourite Energon figures. Alway liked his transformation. Episode 24 Unicron Unleashed, when Mirage was introduced was the first episode i ever watched. I've been a fan of the character even since. Though the batteries on mine have not worked in years, & the piece that locks his cannons in broke nearly 10 years ago. His kibble made him stand out from other figures.
It's a shame clear plastic is so bad, because I really like the shoulder-mounted guns being clear IN THEORY. It makes it look like they're floating behind him! Like he can just telekinetically control his weapons, and that rules. If they could make it STURDY in a modern toy? Oh baby I'd be all over that.
I feel like people are mad less that he’s not an F1 car but more that he “stole” Jazz’s altmode
We're still not done with this bs huh?
There are other Porsche transformers Cliffjumper (technically) Dead End, Minerva, and Nightbeat just name a few I actually forgot a good chunk of the Transformers that are Porches also Jazz was a Porsche 935 Mirage in ROTB is a Porsche 911
“Mirage stole Jazz's alt mode" Well guess what!? Sentinel also stole Alpha Trion's robot mode!
Mirage stole Jazz’s alt mode, robot mode, paint job and personality. Leading up to the movie I kept calling him Jazz by mistake
@@colorscales4269 you're on drugs?
I’m glad you didn’t harp on Energon Mirage too much. Transformers Energon was the series that got me into the franchise. So I have a lot of figures from that line.
Funny enough, I have this mold in a nice turquoise and purple color [they renamed it to Dreadwing claiming it was a copy of the original Mirage or something.] After a while though, I just started calling my toy Mirage too.
The figure has its issues and both sockets on the "Boat Skirt" broke, but still work. No clear plastic breakage yet though after all these years c: never liked the lack of posability, but something about it makes me love it for some reason. Maybe emotional attachment 😅
Also for Boat Formers: Legacy Thunderblast when?!
There's a second sound, you have to press the trigger again AFTER the cannons are deployed. It's ok if you missed it, I found it like 2 or 3 years ago and I got my Mirage AT LAUNCH. so it took me around 15 years to discover that. And hey, those are some POWERFUL batteries, mine still have power on them after nearly 2 decades.
I remember having Energon Sharkticon as a kid and thought he was Mirage for the longest time cause I didn't see him in the show and the 2 had very close color schemes with the tan, purple, and yellow. Wasn't until Thew did that Botcon repaint into G1 colors that I knew what it actually was lol. Sadly broke at the waist I believe back then, wanna get a replacement at some point...
Pretty good find given how old this guy is, and with all missiles/unbroken at that. I've had this one from when it was released and never thought about the clear plastic bits as I've had no difficulty messing with him from time to time. The one annoyance I have though when articulating the knees is the entire legs pop out very easily. Other than that despite the kibble a really fun toy with a unique transformation. Mirage, Bulkhead, and Landmine were amongst some of Energon's best entries.
I was never able to find this figure while enter John was going and it wasn’t until around early 2008 that I finally found the super link version. While I will admit, this mold definitely has its flaws. I really enjoyed it while I had it.
But he’s got a good home now since I gave him to one of my very good friends
lol Enter John!
There were some incredible looking toys that came outta Energon. Personal favorite I own is Omega Supreme or Optimus Prime w/ Wing Saber. Love your vids and collection!
I love this guy to death. Even got the blue one and head canon mirage leading his sweeps.
That shade of brown is what I call "white that is stained by cigarette smoke in the 80s" but with the yellow and purple I don't hate it. Honestly I think the coatail is like 1 transformation away from actually looking cool
I freakin love that mold! (Had the OG blue version) It was so cool then, it's so cool now, one of the best boat figures I've owned.
You know, that hole in his torso, that would make a great “play feature” by allowing a sword to be posed stabbed through him, lmao. Would totally have done that if I had him as a kid playing with the toys
Also appears like they were trying to hide the head panel making it clear because it could be seen inside through the cockpit window
I have the dreadwing repaint of this a teal/blue/purple version and it’s a nice yet goofy figure. This design could use a voyager update cause how often do we get boat transformers and the boat is cool looking
That gaping hole in his chest is from when Shockfleet gave his heart to Gal-sama!
1:25 As a Venezuelan I'm offended they're marketing Cocosette as a Colombian snack when it was created in my country! Welp, here's another one to the list of things colombiana have taken from us 😤😤
I have such a soft spot for boat transformers, and Mirage is a great example of them. I'd love to see a modern interpretation of the character.
It was so hilarious when he mentioned Blitzwing shoulders because I was thinking the exact samr thing!
I saw this figure before...and the more I look at it, it looks like nightbird because of the colors and the body
I mean, Legacy Tidal Wave has been teased in box art so we are getting a boat.
yeah i had no chance trying to piece this together out of a loose transformers bin at a Replay Toys
I wish you would’ve talked about the Dreadwing recolour of him
great, now it's gonna get even more expensive. It was on my watchlist first! Jk not like i got kids or anything. i'll get one eitherwho
I do hope Legacy tackles more Energon characters like Mirage in the future. Personal opinions of the series aside, I do think Energon had some cool TF designs I would love to see modernized (especially the Decepticons like Starscream & Snowcat).
He pulls off the Hasbro Stream Legacy Reveal Walk really well
Gotta love Energon Tidal Wave 2.0!
Funny enough its been confirmed this is a decepticon with his name while the real autobot mirage in the show was a micromaster
Press the button again once the rails holding the missiles have been deployed. You'll get a blast noise.
Boat boi be ballin bois 🏀 🗿🗿
in the japanese dub tidal wave was called shockwave and when turned into mirage he called himself shockfleet just a info i leave here
This guy's original name Shock Fleet, for the Japanese series Super link (Energon). Makes much more sense than Mirage...
just like the titanic he sank like a iceberg when i get the original armada starscream I'm selling my soul for it
Tbh i watch the Japanese version of the show and his Japanese name is Shockfleet and i believe thats a better name than Mirage
The paint job reminds me of Cybertron Megatron and it has the shape of a Bat Boat
there was a repaint of this in a nice blue, and the ball joints holding hte boat bits still broke.
Anyone gonna talk about the way his arms and legs look ripped STRAIGHT from Gundam
used to have that toy.
I lked it but when it was time to make place, he was one of the first to go
The boat parts in robot mode sbould have been made into sword sheaths.
Bro wasn't just a boat... He was a 👿bad boat👿
This guy looks like something from the Gundam universe, specially because of its lower legs and feed.
Unicron trilogy figures >>>>. I'm so sad the new ones are too small for the old minicon port placement. honestly when I got Legacy Armada Megs the molded vestigial tiny minicon ports felt more frustrating than not.
Remember when people were mad at porshe mirage as he stole jazz's alt mode, but think abt this, if jazz comes in the movies, whats the big deal with 2 porsches?
It also helps that Mirage wasn’t the exact type of Porsche that Jazz is known for turning into.
And Hasbro and Paramount could always change Mirage’s alt mode in a future movie. If they can do it with Bumblebee, Drift, Optimus, Sideswipe, and Hound they can do it with Mirage.
The cockpit is called the bridge
I feel like the Energon Decepticons were downgrades of their Armada counterparts. While the Energon Autobots were upgrades to their Armada counterparts.
It's because these new molds meant to be new, separate characters.
congratulations of tidal wave for transitioning into mirage.
That's Tidal wave...upgraded mode from armada mode to Energon
At least this Mirage has a bit of blue on him, unlike another one that's an Italian Red Ferrari that got renamed into Dino for the final film, but not everything else at the time.
I honestly just see dino as a different character, same with que.
@@ark5076I honestly see... PISS OFF!!!
My copy does not have clear plastic for the neck joint
Why did he say shut up like a robot
There are early designs of mirage from RotB with a very jazz looking head.. i am still certain he was always meant to be jazz but had to change his head and name late on becuase of licenscing of the 'jazz' name trademark.... all jazz toys are still called 'autobot jazz' rather than just jazz.
That kibble is a HULL mess.
Missed opportunity
It’s a helm I believe
The transformation is decent. You can see why i hate “lights and sounds” gimmicks…
I love your vid so amazing 🤩
Hi. Someone really enjoyed the treats. Look very yummy to me! Loved the video.
This reminds me of idw riptide
The one was straight up gay for Galvatron in the Japanese version.
You're dad is
The Food Guy , since he reviews the treats
What music was the intro?
Here in the first 16 hours
Is Mirage a decepticon or an autobot?
Con
@@Godzilla5675 thanks I thought he was autobot because rise of best and g1 I didn’t know he was a con I was hearing people call him a con and others calling him a autobot
He's (on) a boat.
IM ON A BOAT MF YEAH LOOK AT ME
I domt understand the point of comparing UT versions with others, they're very obviously just name dumps that oly act as weird points on a fairly consistent timeline of similar designs
There are some UT designs that you can compare to previous designs (mainly when it comes to guys like Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, and Soundwave), but yeah UT did introduce a lot of new characters. And some of those new characters simply had the names of previous Transformers characters slapped onto them without being made with those previous characters in mind.
I really do want a legacy seasoray sssoooo bad for my g1 minybots
What was the song?
People are just mad he is not an F1 all the time
yes..... yes i do
In/out= Adduction/Abduction.
F1 car bot to boat con to NOT jazz
So this toy is made for a kid named Finger?
There’s no way that’s mirage it’s a deseptacon man
Mirage namesake
RotB Mirage should've been a boat. Could've snuck up on the Museum without the need for disguise.
I mean he could have turned into a boat for the museum heist only.
But Mirage would have to be a car for every other place he travelled around at in ROTB. You can’t get far on land as only being a boat. He’d still have to be a land vehicle for land missions.
Just leave him in boat Mode 😅
Kinda looks like Tarn.
I still have mine in his ver y f***** up original box
No, go on. Make the joke.
Also boat transformers, try and grab yourself a cybertron Thunderblast because boat lady is best boat
I hope for the love of god mirage is never a f1 again (unless it’s g1 stuff)
Why?
@@BouaziziGaming an f1 car isn’t a very convincing disguise
@@RexFilmsOfficial I wouldn’t say that convincing would be the right word to use. Any disguise that makes people think you’re something or someone else is a convincing disguise.
The more apt description would be that an F1 car wouldn’t be a very inconspicuous disguise for a Transformer that’s trying to remain off the radar (especially if said F1 is being used to move around regular streets).
An F1 car can work for Mirage if the Autobots become public figures and allies of Earth’s governments; where the Autobots would no longer need to avoid human detection. But when trying to actively hide from humans, an F1 clearly stands out like a sore thumb.
Hes a formula 1 race car
There's this crazy lttle thing called character reimagining
@@lowriderking68 i hate when they do that on wheeljack
@@Doctor_Idiot OHHH BOOHOO
It's not a stupid song 😭😭😭
Hi I guess
hi
remember when mirage was jazz?
Here's the thing. That mirage isn't meant to be mirage it was just a nameslap. It's a new character, and I prefer calling him shockfleet. It's like armada sideswipe. It's not sideswipe, it's nightbeat. Or biltzwing from bb. It's not the triple changer, it's just a random seeker. Also love the vid!
For Primus' sake🤦
This is probably the most stupid comment i ever read today.
@@lesterantenor1026what? 🤨
Good ol’ hasbro, just slap the name on some random character to save the trademark
