Video Review of the Transformers G1: Mirage

[@dragnridr05]

First thing that comes to mind is a quote from Emgo, "Precious, oh so precious".....LOL...I miss those G1 days.

[@NerdyTransformed]

When I saw the empty box, I thought it would be a April Fools joke about him being "miraged"

[@aracri]

Mirage (G1) is one of my “most wanted” TF figures.

[@QuantumSurge64]

Nice to see a G1 toy after a year of not having any of those reviews despite TF being 30 and not see something April Fools related. Good review nontheless, *****!

[@fredimusprime3322]

I love how happy you allways sound it makes my day 100x better thank you optibotimus

[@Magikknight76]

Awesome review it really brought back memories with the old G1 box. Wheeljack was the first figure I ever bought and that was the box he came in so this video really sent me down memory lane.

[@DreadwingDecepticon]

What?! I never knew the toys came out first! That actually explains a lot

[@impossiblepie]

I absolutely love the old G1 packaging!!! classic artwork!!!

[@TacticalNuke1998]

As much as I would love to see more MP Autobots, I think Tamara also needs to delve into the decepticon territory and give us a few MP cons

[@TacticalNuke1998]

By that I mean give us mp decepticon "minions" in the same size as the Autobot cars

[@optibotimus]

Orion Pax I really don't get why so many people want more Decepticons. It's no secret that they are mostly focusing on the first season of characters. There are a ton more autobots than Decepticons. The only ones that we really don't have is Reflector and the Insecticons.

[@joseescobedo7711]

***** Very well said !

[@TacticalNuke1998]

***** you make a good point.

[@alexc2399]

***** they need to remake megatron non the less

[@FeistyWaffle]

That's an awesome looking vehicle mode!

[@tshadow-9997]

It's nice to see something old but fantastic

[@StathIsOptimus]

You reminded me of Shartimus Prime with your intro :D

[@MrHusang23]

Really cool piece, I wish I had him!

[@miyinan]

more of these kind of reviews would be great:)

[@optibotimus]

Yinan Mi Look through my channel, i've reviewed (as far as i know) all the G1 figures i have. As i get more, i throw videos together of em. Coming out shortly is the Platinum re-release of the conehead seekers. I'll be getting those and reviewing them

[@Pixarprime10]

mirage is such an awesome character! and such a cool figure. I love it when you do these i guess throw back reiews paul! keep up the great work! oh and were you okay at the start there? lol!

[@Sideswip3dYusei]

I truly enjoyed this review! I've been eager for a MP version of Mirage but this will do for now. I also agree with you on TakaraTomy to one day create MP versions of Mirage, Jazz, Hound, Ironhide, Ratchet, Sunstreaker, Skyfire, and the other Dinobots. Speaking of sunstreaker, are you planning on getting the OG-01 Spinout?

[@fernandopickling]

thats great transformersG1, great review, i hope this will be the new master piece from takara collection ...

[@nicholasaldridge4574]

Nothing beats the old G1 boxes.

[@bowtieproductions6708]

wow. the new combiner wars mirage actually stays pretty true to that.

[@smb-c3po]

The funny thing is Dark Of The Moon was on FX yesterday.

[@tapgaming4360]

Oh no, decepticon landscapers

[@CaptainForsyth]

that was my very first transformer toy when I was little and back then I never hear transformers till the 2007 movie but I watch and love g1

[@abbey-marieslatter9021]

I agree with you about Takara they so should make a Jazz, Ratchet, Ironhide, Hound, and I think what else would look awesome for a masterpiece figure which to my knowledge they haven't done, and that is a Masterpiece Springer or other triple changers. If Takara made a masterpiece of any of these figure including Mirage I will so by them and add them to my collection.

[@Jirwemthegreat]

Remember that G1 episode where the Autobots were attacked by Decepticon landscapers? I don't know about the rest of you guys, but that was MY favorite G1 episode! XD

[@Jirwemthegreat]

***** ??? You do realize my comment was a joke, right? A reference to a silly explanation in the review?

[@grotezakhooi]

nice classic !

[@dangernew7104]

The constructicons are digging you out!

[@dol_mel7487]

Hey optibotimus cpuld u review more transformers cybertron/galaxy force figures

[@silenceenigma587]

Fun Fact: The reason why there has never been a re-release of G1 Mirage is that the mold of the figure has either been lost or damaged beyond repair

[@originaluddite]

Surely it's not beyond the capacity of modern civilization for them to get a few good condition originals and reverse engineer molds so we can get an Encore re-issue, not a knock-off. I'd get it. It looks like a great toy.

[@ReinaHW]

I would love to see him get an official Masterpiece remake, and more Decepticon MP's as well would be nice to see. Fingers crossed that Takara Tomy are going to try.

[@zerocalvin]

I wish G1 Minerva was that cheap... i been looking for one ever since my mom donated mine away along with my megazord and power master optimus while i'm in college..

[@Mecha82]

Man that Diaclone face is weird with that grin.

[@dol_mel7487]

If they made mp combiners would they make the figures separate or one whole masterpiece that would be one dang expensive masterpiece

[@larry4707]

Hi, Paul! I was wondering, I have a few G1 figures you haven't reviewed (Downshift, Topspin, Twintwist, and a few others). If I was to send them out to you, would you review them and send them back?

[@optibotimus]

I really appreciate the offer. But I don't like taking other peoples figures. I feel responsible for them and don't want anything to happen to em

[@impossiblepie]

I love G1 transformers but most if not all of them are bricks! but I still love them!

[@lukeperry5050]

You know, I love you optibotimus, but... where you high when you made this?

[@dol_mel7487]

Optibotimus please tell me u got ml star saber and are planning to do a review for him plus if we eniugh 9f mp satr saber is sold they will possibly make a mp victory leo to combine with star saber

[@optibotimus]

Jetfire48 I have no intention of buying Star Saber. He's a character that i never knew growing up and don't have much interest in him.

[@optibotimus]

JaZzPrIme74 I can buy Star Saber if i want. It's not a matter of money. It's i have no interest in him because i don't know who he is. I never watched the japanese stuff...so my knowledge of him is extremely limited. I don't see what me buying a $2,000 statue has to do with anything.

[@thetransformersking6014]

You are doing what startimus prime is doing

[@RialVestro]

When I saw the video title I was all ready with a comment saying that TJ Omega already did this joke because I thought you were going to review the "Invisible Mirage" figure that is actually just a review of air. Did you just trick me into thinking this was an April Fools Day review but then actually have a review?

[@arghmic]

Springs in the guns back then were very weak for safety. My g1 gridlocks missiles just shoot 3" ......safety grr wanted it to shoot as a kid

[@TankGamesYT]

Hey, do you know if it is true that they are making a combiner wars Ironhide and Sunstreaker, Mirage, and Prowl??? Thanks!

[@optibotimus]

TankGames Yes...most of the figures from my understanding are repaints and are meant to combine with the Optimus that we got recently

[@TankGamesYT]

Yes! It seems we haven't gotten a good Ironhide in years... Oh wait, it has been years! :D

[@jaythamalt]

I'm still debating whether or not this is an April Fools video.

[@Smith5296]

May I know why do g1 plastic is better than the figure we have now.

[@dodu8234]

It's not plastic its metal

[@obsessedwithTF1]

DX9's Invisible is almost an MP Mirage, and I doubt Mirage is popular enough to get an official one soon.

[@optibotimus]

obsessedwithTF1 They're making Tracks lol i wouldn't put it past them to want to do Mirage at some point.

[@RKStrikerJK5]

Okay, I don't know if this is 'intended' to be an April Fool's prank or not, but this is actually pretty cool. I'd actually like to see you do some older toys. G1 Optimus Prime?

[@optibotimus]

What's a prank about this? Lol

[@RKStrikerJK5]

***** I dunno. :p I guess the high-speed opening spiel from you and how not-serious this one seemed.

[@optibotimus]

Jonathan Ellis lmao I can see that, honestly i recoreded this a couple weeks ago and didn't even realize the date that i was putting it up here lol

[@ginraitakara5760]

***** not to mention the fact that mirage could make himself invisible, i actually thought this was prank too, i thought you're gonna pull out an "invisible" toy and be like "well he's mirage! He's invisible" and just dance your fingers as if there's an actual toy in there and just act natural like in your normal reviews. I hope i gave you an april fools idea for next year ;)

[@reaperazreal7885]

Paul you never did a review of mastermind creations terminus hexatron

[@lyleong656]

I want them to remaster masterpiece megatron because I don't like the look at all and yes I know it was rushed that's why I hope they remaster him

[@impossiblepie]

long over due for a MP Mirage!!!

[@dukehernando8396]

Did i just hear a vacuum cleaner?

[@deydraniadiancecht8298]

I didn't like this one. I had it when I was a kid and it didn't take long to discover the toy's fatal flaw- where it swivels in the center, there's only a plastic pin connecting the upper and lower halves. That plastic pin fatigued and split.

[@crimsondeception]

Lol shartimusprime impression

[@terryshalit3811]

are you going to review the mp star saber?

[@ashdoll217]

And what's wrong with that?

[@optibotimus]

JaZzPrIme74 Again, i don't see what that has to do with ANYTHING

[@TheFourteenthPrime]

JaZzPrIme74 Dude. He does't have to review everything. Because obviously there are many things he never reviewed like for example, a lot of Takara Lost Age figures. So money doesn't matter at all. If he wants to review a $2,000 statue that he really enjoys than he can. If he doesn't want to review a $200 figure that he doesn't care about then he doesn't have to. Plus from what you said earlier about never touching the statue again, what would be the difference between a figure and a statue there? Both would be standing there and not touched so that part of your argument is invalid.

[@Spawnfreak]

Were you doing Emgo there?

[@optibotimus]

Nope lol

[@ShartimusPrime]

I'm pretty sure he was impersonating me. Well done, sir. Spot on!

[@mbcraftgaming8471]

Those Decepticon landscapers are really annoying...

[@fooberdooge3103]

Regardless of who it is, I love all G1 figures! (Minus Wheelie)

[@devildogz7154]

yeah the toys and comics came first

[@jami666]

Wohoo my commetk is 15th

[@roxyroller25]

freaking lawn mower!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@andrezenz]

2 fast 2 little content

[@thetransformersking6014]

Lolllllllllllll

[@joseescobedo7711]

I wish they made transformers more difficult and plz stop these crapy 1 step figures its no fun and they dont put alot of detail in it as they use to.

[@obsessedwithTF1]

This isn't a One Step. It's the original 1984 Mirage.

[@joseescobedo7711]

I wasnt talking about this i was talking about on how they now make their transformers like 1 step grimlock 1 step bumblebee etc.

[@TheFourteenthPrime]

Jose Escobedo Well they are meant for kids. Not collectors. Personally, I kind of like them. Mainly the AOE ones. The RID ones aren't as good to me.
