Third party company Newage Toys, via their Weibo account, have shares images of the color prototype of their H42 Shean (Legends Scale G1 Mirage) and all his upcoming variants.
H42 Shean is an impressive 7.6 cm tall cartoon-accurate Mirage for the Legends scale. This figure will have die-cast parts for the toes and car spoiler, and two alternative missiles for the shoulder cannon (which is integrated in the transformation). As usual, Newage have also revealed several variants of this mold as follows:
- H42EX Shean – Toy colors.
- H42T Shean – Clear plastic
- H42B Lamont Cranston – Shattered Glass Miragem based on the Henkei Electro Disruptor Ligier
- H42EXR Shean – Diaclone inspired red redeco.

Same thing just happened to me. Seller claims that they are both not in stock and not in production anymore. Currently trying to get AliExpress to give my money back. But since the seller marked them as shipped and the package got delivered AE is not being very cooperative.

Stumbled onto the clear version on sale at bbts, and glad i snagged it. I may do the parts swap thing with my original to do the invisi transition effect.

I ordered a pair of these, but the seller apparently forgot to put them in with the rest of the order, and now the yellow version is sold out. I'm bummed.

alright, that’s so unnecessary but so awesome

Wish they released a clear version like the Iron Factory version.

So I finally dipped my toes into a version f this mold the other day. Got the Diaclone red version and I have to such that the mold is just amazing. Solid, hefty, and a perfect transformation between both molds. He’s perfect and now I want them all.

Coooosmooos! That is the most amazing post on TFW2005 ever!
I am now so pleased that I'm unable to sleep tonight, as I got to see it sooner!

Thank you!
Of course, I was cheered more by your user icon than by the image you posted. Coooosmooos!

I got Mirage a little while ago but only opened him this weekend. I like to pace myself opening figures, to make the most of each of them rather than rushing through.
And he is absolutely wonderful! Such a clever transformation and looks great in both modes. I got the toy version, of course. Currently, I think that he might be the best NA figure of the many I have. (Obviously not my favourite, which is Cosmos.)

Sorry for the blurry photo. I'm not very awake. Stupid Covid.

I completely agree. One of my favourite third party legends. And very fiddle-able.

Got my sixth and final Mirage in today.
I really enjoy this figure, it has to be said. I think it’s a bit underrated amongst the NewAge moulds.

Whoops, missed that the clear SG version had come out, luckily it was still in stock at TCP, and got it along with MS Jazz, which came today:

FYI I got three day notifications from TCP that the clear and clear Electro-Distruptor/SG versions are expected in stock shortly.

As always I am late on party but anyway finally it arrived. It's little cute bot with a great material and paint design.
Here is my first quick shots.

I have had my H42B for several days but I was too lazy to post anything about it. Then multiple cases of a minor QC issue have been reported so I would like to piont it out: that paint at the front of the car mode is tilted. Mine no exception.
What is more, if I look closely, my H42 also has this problem, but not so obvious.
Besides, the parts do not come together that well as original version. These two problems seem to be prominent in H42T as well (I did not buy H42T)

As a repaint there is not much else left to say.
