Though Mirage does not rank as highly as Megatron's Vehicon generals, he still serves an important role as a sort of bridge between those commanders and their drones, an independent operative who gathers intelligence required on the battlefield. In that way, he is similar to the original Generation One Mirage, who was an Autobot. Like that earlier iteration, this Mirage turns into a Formula One-looking race car, though this Vehicon one has enough alien detail that indicates it's a Cybertronian vehicle and not an Earth car. Mirage was released in 2000.
The combined form of the Universe Micromaster Aerialbots is Superion, an amalgamation of six robots plus their pack-in accessories that serve as connectors, head, and extremities of the gestalt warrior. While in Japan, the original source of the design ( Sixwing , 1992) was available in a collected set, this combiner needed to be purchased one bot at a time in the 2007 Universe release.
