Also, not everyone has a Facebook account, which can possibly limit accessibility to Facebook links.

One does not need a Facebook account to look at Facebook.

I never had one back during the days of the Ask Vector Prime Facebook, yet I read every single one of those AVP posts on Facebook.

Pictures of SS Mirage from the official TF Facebook page

Does embedding Facebook posts work here? (edit: No) He looks nice. Nothing like the film, but nice. Or perhaps because of.

It does very much feel like this was designed to be an earlier form of Movieverse Jazz that got switched to Mirage at some point during production.

It looks better than what in the movie trailer, now if they gave it a white paint job with some black and blue, we would have a nice looking Jazz

I personally don't get why "the Porshe HAS to be Jazz, no one else ever, period" Its been decades and we've seen other characters have other alt mods. But second we get Porshe, people will only accept Jazz.

 

[Cybersnark]

We've even had other Porsches.

Maybe this guy could be movieverse Rabbicrater.

He's a Porsche with a blue stripe on his hood, has a visor in robot mode, and what we're seeing of his personality is also more Jazz than Mirage.

He does not have a visor. He has a blue-trimmed headband-like forehead brow directly above his two separate eyes.

This image from Seibertron shows a closer look at it (the image isn't embeddable).

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be. We all did.

I don't have any problem with a non-Jazz Porshe. It's just that this vehicle and robot mode are both very Jazz like. If you showed me the pictures of both modes with no other information available and asked me who it was, there's no way that I would guess anyone other than Jazz. The revised version from the new trailer is sufficiently different to be anybody, but this old design is like 80-90% of the way to being G1 Jazz.

If it helps, when I see a Porsche, my first choice is "Baron Von Joy"?

Yeah, this is basically Jazz in all but name.

I'd buy that! Replace the black plastic in the robot limbs with red and give it a new glass dome style head that suggests the old figures vehicle cockpit noggin and I'd buy a dozen. Nay, two dozen!

He's just stockier than the movie model; feels like the details are where they should be.



He looks great.

I'm not talking the toy, the toy is obviously "Oh, a Porsche?" -=makes Jazz=- "What do you mean its not Jazz?" but ever since the Mirage trailer dropped, people have been bitching about him not being Jazz, when other then being a porshe, he looks nothing like Jazz. "But movie designs never look like G1" except that Movie 1 Jazz, other then not being a porche and not being in rally colors, is still 100% Jazz in his robot mode design. Let movie Mirage (not Dino), be a porche, becuase an F1 racer is not a good disguise, and fairly sure isnt road legal either.

Shhh, stop liking things, we're geewunning.

 

[Donocropolis]

I too actually much prefer all of the "based on early concept drawings" toys we've seen so far to to the more finalized versions.

I just can't get behind that headsculpt on the Cheator figure

Most of the head is okay, but the mouth is just... where is it?
