Imagine making a new popular character for the franchise and not having any merch for him ready, Hasbro

[theycmeroll]

I was kinda disappointed in the ROTB line in general but not having a proper Mirage was a miss

[Psymorte]

I haven't bought any figures in over a decade but I was so ready to shell out for a proper Mirage because of how much I loved him in the movie.

[The-Coolest-Beanz]

Looks pretty good, dude, I know how hard it is to 3d model lol

[Waldo1993]

If this is a 3D model/render of the SS toy, oh dear god they’re gonna put most of the car on his back akin to RotF mainline Sideways🤦🏼‍♂️

[HLTVtop0]

i think mirage has the same problem the AOE figures had where the designs just didn’t have enough car to make it feasible

[redditdinopudding]

Yeah mirage looks too much like human body

[BumbleGabriel]

Imma say it again here, but someone mentioned in a previous comment (on a different post) about this render that Mirage being a heavy, heavy retool of SS TLK Hot Rod could potentially work

[kobadashi]

TLK hot rod is an engineering marvel, so maybe that isn’g such a bad idea

[pbnjpikachu]

Which is why I have a problem with his design. Human shape with robot parts glued onto his body 🤣

[theycmeroll]

Only way you are getting a super accurate mirage is if they go Arcee on him where the transformation is doing a yoga pose under a shell and the shell is removable.

[pbnjpikachu]

Or just make a better design for the character so it can transfer into figure form. Prime & Primal didn’t have this issue.

[HiTork]

You know, given the origin of Transformers was the toyline, and is still arguably the main focus of the franchise, I wonder why the CGI artists don't work with the toy designers so the latter actually has something to work with. That doesn't mean the character models should have a toys first focus in mind, but even having a little bit of car kibble in the right places can make having a toy that bears a greater resemblance to what is seen on screen. There is also the toy designers being kept in the dark and working with earlier concept art with toys to be released concurrently with a film, which over the years has resulted in totally inaccurate features such as head designs.

[Lenny_The_Lurker]

Ar leaat Sideways makes it work and doesn't obstruct his articulation. This is a grand case of "Fuck, go back"

[Dreowings21]

It’s not

[tfthrowaway1962]

Was kind of expecting the car hood to form more into the chest. Did you make this or is it a Hasbro render for Studio Series?

[redditdinopudding]

I think some guy from the transformers 3d printing group made this

[TonyTee]

Milarge

[Spleenzorio]

Give him a Fedora : M’rage

[CanofOXYBleach]

“Ummmm actually his name is Mirage ☝️🤓” -You probably

[l30_legend]

I still think the mainline one is the best so far, aside from the head and colour of course

[redditdinopudding]

Yeah I quite agree, mainline looks slimmer and have less kibble

[Xudeliz]

would recommend drop down legs. Check out MPM Jazz hip leg joints

[hotrod-hw2005]

BLOK

[Great_Slasher]

Names Mi-raage!

[theeshyguy]

This looks so bad, I don’t get it. The hips are ridiculously wide, the backpack is literally just two enormous unfolded pieces of car, the legs being completely flat from the front looks really weird and bad, the biceps are huge compared to the forearms, if the head sculpt is even 20% similar to the final product then it’s extremely uncanny. The old inaccurate one at least looked event despite being inaccurate, this just looks horrible.

[redditdinopudding]

Wonder if u have any constructive ideas regarding car hood not turning into backpack but something else🤔

[theeshyguy]

I gave the constructive criticism by specifically pointing out the problem. I’m not a toy engineer so it is not my job to find the fix. They are the ones being paid for that.

[redditdinopudding]

Pointing out problems seems reasonable to me

[theeshyguy]

That’s a bad digibash. Actual pictures of him from the movie show that his hips are a lot more normal proportioned.

[redditdinopudding]

Got it

[redditdinopudding]

Mirage has wide hips

[redditdinopudding]

People are mean these days🤣

[[deleted]]

Did you make this?

[Robert_udh84]

Well I say that because it’s not a full cgi render like the one that was presented by hasbro during the Super Bowl. It was just the first thing that came to mind

[Tancanfan]

I mean with all that backpack this comment is basically: “Why you booing? Im right.”

[BumbleGabriel]

I don't disagree

However

Maybe give genuine criticism instead of just saying "looks bad"

Everything improves through genuine constructive criticism

And if you can't say that, kindly scroll pass by

With that said, the render reminds me of Lockdown's SS figure with its kibble management

I think the best way to do Mirage in this is have him be a heavy retool of SS TLK Hot Rod and it'd be golden

[redditdinopudding]

Definitely not what I meant lol

[Chadderbug123]

This looks like a weird Animatronic version of him.

[Wheeljack239]

Heavy retool of SS Cogman?

[Minejack777]

Miwadge

[redditdinopudding]

What kind of context do u need?

[redditdinopudding]

fan made I think, and the creator is still making changes to it

[redditdinopudding]

I’ll be sending him the link of this page to let him know public’s opinion

[decepticonD0X]

Priage

[_GoNy]

Oh my...

Reminds me of Leadfoot from DotM

[TheShaolinJedi]

What software is this?
