Are you kidding?!? The hull wing/samurai-leg-armor/sheath things are Mirage's defining feature!! Like TF:Prime Dreadwing's wing-fan design... It's the coolest thing about this figure! Also, a tough call? Why? You got him. Whether anyone else does or not isn't your call. I absolutely have to have him. XD

My only issue with the design is that there is a big gap between the main body and the back in robot mode, as it makes him look really hollow, with his head barely holding his backpack.

So, positives: -Cool look, nice face, good detailing, original transformation, different alt mode. Negatives: - Kibble heavy, takes a lot of space on shelf (not good for display) falls apart at the legs (bad for stopmotions), weird articulation in the forearms.
@thesadisticelf5659

Some classic Balt and good vibes. Hope you're doing well! I think what the designers could have done to get rid of the boat kibble is have it split in four and give him some spider legs. Would make for an interesting silhouette and fit the ocean theme with him looking kinda crab-like

I personally hated that they changed Tidal wave into mirage mainly cause Tidal wave was the only titan on the decepticon side in armada and energon. However i do really like energons mirage in design and is actually my favorite version of all mirage i simply think he would have gotten alot more love if it wasnt for them doing it at the cost of losing Tidal wave

He reminds me of Beast Wars Rampage, especially with the face sculpt. Funny thing is that his kibble is never put to use, even though it's huge enough to function as a sheild =) I really do like the design of him, even though he's a bad guy. His design looks more anti-hero-ish.

I bought this figure cause I thought he looked cool, only to find out his legs pop off if you even look at him funny. The worst part is that I have no idea why his legs can detach. It's not a feature and it's not there for transformation. It's like they added that just to ruin the figure. Just ridiculous.
