Awoo.
  • Meet Omelette, Sonic Mania's Accidental New Boss Character

    She's Eggman's daughter/niece/protege, and she's delightfully evil!

    It was only a matter of time before someone managed to completely misread the sprites in Sonic Mania and create a brand new character out of it. We just didn't think it would happen so soon! One player in particular has captured the hearts and minds of the Sonic community by epically misinterpreting one of the bosses. Introducing 'Omelette' / 'Eggette' / 'Ovoid Robotnik'!

    Artist Alpha Gamboa had reached the Eggman spider mech boss (found at the end of the Flying Battery) and, instead of seeing Dr. Eggman piloting the mech upside-down, saw a cute and angry munchkin with spiky hair and a crazy headband. She was christened 'Eggette' by Gamboa and his imagination shortly went wild with the above drawings being published as a result.

    Naturally, this was very quickly embraced by everybody on Twitter - including key artists who worked on the Sonic Mania project as well as SEGA staff - and fan art of this mad misread of a boss battle started to blossom. There's now even a sweet little canon made just for her, as Dr. Eggman's earnest niece. Alternative names for her also started flying around, including 'Eggatha', 'Omelette', 'Dr Ovoid Robotnik' and 'Yolki Dolki'. Here are some of our favourites.

    With Sonic Mania a huge critical success - with tons of community support - and with SEGA keeping an eye on fan sentiment around the game post-launch, we'll say this now; if a 'Sonic Mania 2' project gets green-lit in the future, we definitely want 'Omelette' to play a part in it.

    Among all the ridiculous good it’s done, Sonic Mania has now also produced the only good Sonic OC.

    Somebody cancel Forces now.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if Omelette became a new character in Sonic Mania 2…. but one question still lingers in my mind….

    What other evil scientist do we know has a niece?

    I still think Omlette “Scrambles” Robotnik (or whatever her last name would be) is a better name. Have her use “Scrambles” after Robotnik tells her to “scram” like how Robotnik started using “Eggman” after Sonic insulted him in Adventure.

    I REALLY want this to be a canonical character. Orbot and Cubot are both good in their own respect, but Omelette with Eggman as his niece just feels better. I hope SEGA incorporate her into the Sonic canon soon. Maybe start her off with that design in Sonic Mania 2 and if well received bring her into the legacy/modern series with an updated design to match current Eggman.

    This… Is actually a brilliant concept.

    I would genuinely love to see the Mania team use her in some sort of successor title they might make in the future. lol

    I wouldn't mind seeing Omelette appear in Mania 2, that is if Iizuka allows it…

    I love the design and enthusiasm about this character, but you all understand that it would be a legal nightmare if Sega tried to co-opt it now right? This is literally a fan-made OC. You’re more likely to see Princess Sally in a video game before this character because at least Sega already owns the rights to her.

    No. Just NO, Sonic fandom community! This has got to be a serious joke, wanting this to be an actual canonical character. Glad people are having fun with it but this should not come to pass. There were already enough ‘hardcore SEGA fan’-servicing elements, to include odd non-Sonic-gameplay elements (Mean Bean Machine boss) and throwback stage themes (that try to call attention to the true glory days but just don’t fully measure up to the caliber of their sources) that tried to throw that game off the tried-and-true novelty path. I don’t want this to be a thing to tarnish the originality of it all.

    Also, that one with Cluck has her smiling like a Chucky doll.

    I could honestly see her as a replacement to Snively from the archie comics and SatAM. It could really work.

    “if a ‘Sonic Mania 2’ project gets green-lit in the future, we definitely want ‘Omelette’ to play a part in it.”

    Dear lord, NO. The last thing we need is the canonization of fancharacters.

    The fanart pics of her were fun, though.

    Except as a Sonic fan character, I doubt she will. The legal ramifications are so huge it’s not even funny. Not saying I don’t want to see her in, I do, I would love to see this character in a future game. I’m just trying to be realistic here.

    This is awesome. Omelette is the best character design in over 10 years. Would love to see her come back as a real thing.

    *facepalm* really someone didn’t realize that was just Eggman himself but upside down. Someone has an overactive imagination. Sorry but I don’t think she isn’t going to be cannon.

    Actually the only person they’d have to come to an agreement with is Alpha Gamboa, not every single person who drew fanart of her… that being said, i doubt they would and Alpha himself asked people to stop begging the Mania staff to add her.

    I hope she at the very least becomes canon to the IDW comics, if they aren’t allowed to use DIC characters like the Archie comics did, she’d make a great replacement to Snively. It’s about time Classic Sonic got it’s own Peridot-type character. X)”

    Heres a treat - take all the fan art of omelette and flip it over. Looks like Eggman got a beard

    I don’t think she’d end up being made canon…

    but, that doesn’t mean that they can’t make an official character like her in a future game.
