Yes. It is a gimmick.
Yes. My panties are sopping wet for a gimmick.
But c'mon... if you've got a character who possesses the ability to become invisible then I'm sure as hell not going to bitch about a transparent redeco version of him!
I gots to have me the e-hobby BT-18 Mirage.
These are the kinds of repaints and redecos or whathaveyou that I totally love!

So between this, MP-06 Skywarp and the Big Lebowski figures. . .
I am so screwed.
I will be cremated with both of mine (yes, I am getting 2, just like I got 2 BT-17s).
Binaltech does not mean metal. Binaltech means "double-form technology" or some shit like that. The technology of being cool and the technology of being hot, all at the same time.
Me wants.
The obvious question - does this mean we might see a BT-19 - Mirage (not clear version)? Now I want to know whether it's worth tracking down an over-priced Alternator Mirage or not to go alongside this one.
BTW, they could totally retool the head and create a monstrous Binaltech / RID Side Burn homage.
Well... between KISS Play Hot Rod and Alternator Mirage and the future translucent one you pretty much have the 3 forms of Car Robots Speedbreaker.
Sounds like a BT / CR crossover in the making. :)
This bad boy looks friggin amazing!!!
But $80???? I already own the Alternators Mirage ...
