Mirage is an Autobot from the Aligned continuity family.
If we go by his alt mode's country of origin, he should have a German accent.

With his incredible talent for stealth, Mirage would be the ultimate spy. However, he would much rather be in the thick of a fight, moving silent and invisible through a melee to strike where the enemy is weakest.<ref>Prime: Cyberverse Legion Class Mirage packaging bio</ref>

Fiction

Aligned novels

[edit]

When Optimus Prime and the others were captured by the Quintessons, the remaining Autobots aboard the Ark contemplated their next move. Sunstreaker mentioned Mirage as part of a strike force he would assemble to rescue the big guy and their friends.

As Sideswipe flew the Autobot spaceship through the Quintesson artillery, Mirage, Sunstreaker, and the rest of Strike Force Zero dropped from the ship to reinforce their fellow Autobots, who had already broken free and engaged the Sharkticons. Retribution

    • Accessories: Blaster
Part of the second wave of Series 2 Cyberverse Legion Class toys, Mirage is a redeco/retool of Revenge of the Fallen Legends Class Sideways, transforming into an unlicensed mock Audi R8. The retool was principally to give him hands and 3mm ports capable of holding Cyberverse weapons, such as his translucent red "blaster", a sword which can sort of be used as a blaster when turned around. The "blaster", in the same colors, was carried by Cliffjumper and Ratchet, while differently-colored versions were each used by Quickblade Bumblebee and the single-release redeco of Knock Out.
The United States market release of Mirage used the template for the Transformers: Prime-based Series 2 Cyberverse Legion Class packaging style but lacked the "Prime" moniker, thus arguably making him another Mirage. The multilingual European market packaging, meanwhile, retained the Prime title.
The original version of this mold was also used to make Override.
