- Hey guys! I made another Mimi-Sentry animation! I really hope you guys enjoy this. I've been working on this for the past 2-3 months! The Optimus Prime model in this video was modeled by me! I did the animation the transformations myself.

This project wouldn't have been possible without our dad. He gave me the little details of what to do for Optimus and how I should make him. You could say this model is his interpretation of Optimus Prime! Hes a very big transformers fan, and I'm glad he stayed by our side while making this project..
Optimus has always been a character that fans of the Transformers community have looked up to and greatly appreciated as early as the 1984 G1 cartoon show. He's the kind of leader that, following by the same words that Peter Cullen was once told by his brother Larry Cullen, is strong enough to be gentle. I remember being told by my father about how people, both children and adults, in the theaters cried to Optimus' death in the 1986 movie and that Hasbro was sent a bunch of letters by fans of just how majorly upset they were from their decision to kill off such an icon because their toy was discontinued. That's how big of importance this character has been for the franchise. Your dad's interpretation of Optimus Prime here in this animation is really well done. The way he moves and uses his Ion Blaster in combat, both normally and one handed, shows how tactical he is against Decepticons. The expressions in his eyes shows character and thought of his encounter with little Mimi-Sentry. In short, this animation was very well done and I'm glad I saw this in my recommended.
Also of course Starscream is going to take the opportunity to try and defeat Optimus in order to prove he's a better Decepticon leader than Megatron. He got what he deserved XD
Your dad got him down perfectly. He’s strong yet gentle, exactly what he should be.
It's very sweet that you looked to your dad for creative input for Optimus Prime. Your animation took very well to his advice.
now that i like call a robot teamwork.
Imagine if Mimi Brought Optimus back to the Red team base Meeting Dispenser Lady and The Teleporter Twins XD *The Best Team Red Robot Family*
Can't say I blame Optimus's initial reaction. Mimi does look like something that came out of Soundwave.
She even turns into a Tiny box, just like Soundwave!
I didn't even think about that, you're right
I hope you do more with some of the transformer characters like Megatron
That honestly makes a lot of sense.
Edit: Plus, the entire Ion Blaster is actually warranted if she was anything like Rumble or Frenzy.
Those two are terrifying for their size, especially because their pile drivers can cause goddamned earthquakes.
Yep, mimi sentry looks like a minicon
Absolutely nailed how Optimus acted, especially when he took the hit from Starscream instead of dodging because Mimi was under him.
Perfectly shows optimus' great morality and code to protect the innocent
He'd rather take the hit instead of someone else
Mimi needs to stop getting in the way of giant robots, jeez…
Well she can't help it, not to mention getting in the way of robots that are three times bigger and probably the most powerful, also, she was in all honesty, trying to get back with her dad
Correction...
*Alien robots*
@@user-jf1bm5bj9bcorrection again they are LIVING METAL AS CYBERTRONIANS NOT ROBOTS
It’s not her fault it’s the internets fault 💀
Yeah, but I’m all for it
Honestly, in terms of “we made this thing into a girl”, the TF2 Sentry Family is probably the one I actually like. The designs aren’t designed to be exaggeratedly sexual, in fact they’re really restrained. They feel loyal to the designs of the units in game. And they all have very distinctive personalities that are befitting of the unhinged dynamics of TF. Plus the family dynamics are fun.
I mean for real! At this point, Mimi is as much a character to me as the mercs are, and she really does fit in nicely. Plus we've got the extended Mimi Sentry cast and they're all remarkably distinctive.
I like that the way they are designed, they could be flirty and sexy if they choose to be

I never knew how much I need to see Mimi and Optimus together until watching this. Absolutely amazing!
Glad you enjoyed it!

YOU DID THE MODEL AND ANIMATIONS FOR OPTIMUS?!
Jesus H. Y'all are incredibly talented! Absolutely amazing work & animation! :D
Yep! I had my dad critique me while I did it! He's a really big G1 transformers fan.
@e-brosanimations231 bro the g1 optimus became 3d!
@@e-brosanimations231 ye dad is a g1 fan and he helped you. that wholesome man.
@@e-brosanimations231 your dad had the right idea, we need more animations like this for a change.
@@e-brosanimations231me and my dad too.❤👍😁
It was honestly quite wholesome to see Mimi meeting Optimus Prime and watched as he battled Starscream, I’m sure Mimi would love being friends with Bumblebee.
Also with arcee and elita One.
@@megatronleaderofthedecepti1283 True.
Well they both just make sounds instead of actual speaking.
I love it!
I love how Optimus really showed compassion and gentleness to Mimi despite being a literal war machine that can transformed into a truck, Wholesome!
todo un tipaso el Optimus
He's not only just a war machine, but the best father figure (the model in this video is mostly g1 Optimus).
“Be strong enough to be gentle” -Peter Cullen’s Brother
Optimus' eyes are giving TFP vibes, animation style and cinematography giving Michael Bay vibes and it has a G1 Optimus design, really well done ngl
You make a very good point
I love how Optimus acts sweet and looks adorable (imo, look at those eyes of his!) but also is a total badass when he needs to be. Perfect balance struck!
"A leader must be strong enough to be gentle." Peter Cullen himself
1:26 the transformation was crispy 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The sounds were just...👌🗿
Man, I just gotta say, the bit where optimus transforms was clean as hell, I loved that
Welp! I did a bit better with animating the hair! No physics simulations in this video 😅
None? you did a great job with the hair than amazing job.
great job with optimus's transformation
looked great
THE EMOTIONS OF OPTIMUS ARE INSANE!!!! I knew this encounter would've come eventually, but the execution was so awesomely spot on
This is genuinely amazing! As a Transformers fan and someone who loves watching TF2, this is awesome!
Also I love the reaction of Mimi seeing Optimus Prime for the first time! So much personality in her face!
Dude, I am loving this "Mimi meets" animations you've been doing. You nailed Optimus Prime's personality to a tee. Not just showing that he's not to be messed with when showing his firepower and strength, but also his compassion when protecting Mimi and offering her a ride. I am loving this!
I love these Mimi meeting giant robot animations! Its such a fun watchh..is this an intentional trendd or do you just really like most of the larger robots? Awesome stufff!
Dude!! Imagine she bumps into robots that are icons too.
The next robot in mind won't be so giant..
@@e-brosanimations231 would this robot perhaps be made out of iron aswell?
@@learningtodrawstudios4773 nope!
@@e-brosanimations231hol up is it possibly disney
This is AMAZING! You got mad skills, my dude. Some of my favorite details:
1:12 Using the hydraulic hiss as a sniffle was adorably genius and I love it so much
1:23 Your transform sequence is the perfect blend of G1 block-motion and live action flourish
1:45 Optimus's facial expressions
2:02 The music transition was s m o o t h
2:16 the fact that you used the G1 blaster sounds
Such a beautiful animation
It's always nice to see Optimus lending his assistance to those down on their luck. I thought him offering her a ride like that was very cute. Stellar job. Stellar job indeed
1:25 Optimus Prime: I Will Decimate Your Face... GIVE IT TO ME!!! GIVE IT TO ME NOW!!!!
if captions exists @2:58 it would be;
Starscream: WAAAAAAAHHH!
Optimus: they don't call him "StarSCREAM" for nothing
bro starscream skilling optimus was just funny
this is sick
That Optimus Prime is perfect! Your animation team is the Best! The Lil’ gun lady is excellently acted too! Keep it up!
Just me and my brother!
This is too good. I am exploding into trillions of pieces.
I loved the transformations especially! ( Optimus, Mimi's Hand ) How are you so underrated?
The way you used the pneumatic sounds to emulate sighs from Mimi was a super creative choice. Absolutely genius, and the animation is super smooth too.
Y'alls model for Prime and his alt mode are SO GOOD! I love how you can see his expressions clearly in his eyes. and transformation was Beautiful! and you used the most crisp of sounds, giving it an even Greater portrayal!
LOVE IT!
As a FNAF animator, as you need is eyelids and a moveable jaw to convey emotions.
True@@e-brosanimations231
Every scene here is absolutely beautiful!
I could probably make a desktop wallpaper out of every single second in this, and that scene where Optimus towers over Mimi is absolute perfection! The way he kneels down and turns on the lights across his torso so he can see better is just-... GAH, I LOVE IT!!
I'm seriously impressed at how well you conveyed each character's emotions without any speech whatsoever. Optimus only has his eyes visible yet is extremely expressive!
You've all outdone yourselves!
Was honestly hoping Mimi would turn into turret mode and be used like a Targetmaster by Optimus to shoot down Starscream.
Maybe next time.
As a transformer fan I’m gonna say that you nailed everything with the transformer.
2:46(just my idea of how their conversation might've gone)
Starscream: I have you now, Optimus! I shall vanquish you and earn leadership of the Decepticons!!
Optimus: Not today, Starscream. (blam)
Starscream: (AUGH) You've hit my stabilizers! CURSE YOU, OPTIMUS!!! I'LL BE BACK, JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE!!!!
(2:13) ironhide, IT'S STARSCREAM😡😡😡
mimi having the stones to point her little hand cannon at a decepticon such a brave girl
Looks like Optimus Prime has a new partner Mini-Con. And she’s adorable!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Damn this is so cute and awsome
The Mimi sentry animation and how she acts really makes her look cute X)
And the first encounter with Optimus is... Wholsome as heck XD
Wish we could see more of that stuff in Future. I personaly wanna see crossovers like this :D
STARSCREAM, and I love that Mini has these kind of adventures from you
Honestly, Optimus did nothing out of character here. She pointed a gun at him, and she looks like a mini-con. But he didnt fire immediately, and when she put her hands up, he put his gun away and then quickly figured out she was out of place and so protected her and then gave her a ride. Optimus being a good guy.
Optimus is done PERFECTLY here. Model, personality and all, also love how he takes the hit for Mimi showing his gentle giant persona, and showing no matter how big or small a form is. He will always protect them, a true hero.
Optimus personally mentoring Mimi would be a cool idea
That was my first thought when seeing the thumbnail
As a massive transformers fan i loved this, and now I need to see Wheeljack and the engineer build some stuff.
Hell yeah!!!!
Transformers and TF2 isn't the cross-over I expected, but it worked VERY well nontheless! Glad to hear your Dad helped you make the Optimus Prime model!
I would honestly believe that if optimus prime saw an actual mimi-sentry, optimus prime would Definity believe that mimi-sentry is a mini-con of some sort. Since mini-cons are a neutral faction in transformers, optimus prime wouldn't act hostile when meeting up with mimi-sentry. He would probably have a failed attempt on recruiting mimi-sentry until later realizing its not a transformer at all, but would still probably help her to certain degree until optimus focuses back to his main tasks.
So this animation is actually in certain degree, pretty accurate to an actual scenario if it would happen.
The crossover we didn't think we needed, but we got it anyway, and it was stellar.
Better then all five of the transformers movies combined. 12/10 highly recommend
This video is just amazing and cute i love how Optimus prime protecting mimi this video deserves a huge likes and viewers
I love the idea of Mimi being able to switch from Hand or Arm Cannon like Mega Man
I absolutely love the way Optimus is animated in here
1:04 im loving the metal pipe.
On a more serious note, that transformation sequence with all the parts fitting into place is so cool!
Wonderful and wholesome! The Optimus model is amazing--his facial expressions remind me of the old ads with the small kid and the giant Optimus puppet.
More Mimi meeting the transformers, this talent in animation deserves more praise!
I don't know how to describe it exactly, but this almost feels like a Brawl Subspace Emissary. Just have the name splashes when the characters first show up, have no music and it'd be spot on. Great job 👍
What a treat of a longer animation. Especially mimi and optimus himself transforming. That's often something that gets sidelined because it's really hard. Only thing I would mention is the weight of Optimus, especially when walking he seems lighter than he should be. Or that's how it feels at least. Mimis face has also improved I noticed.
1:20 you stepped on the wrong jordans
1:33 and you picked the wrong house fool
2:41 Starscream: I’ll BLAST YOU BACK TO THE BRONZE AGE!”
GOD PLEASE MAKE THIS INTO A MINI SERIES (im new) ITS SO GOOD !!!!!!!!!!!!
This is basically any generation who grew up with good tf content meeting and helping todays generation 3:21
This is by far the best Optimus prime model I’ve ever seen and probably the most cool Michael bay type transformation sequence I’ve ever seen animated.
Also your dad is really a fan can tell with how perfectly you captured the energy of Optimus prime. Keep up the good work.
with majority of what i see in the internet, mimi's spunky attitude would totally fit in with the autobot team, the wreckers, basically autobot's version of black ops with a lot more wrecking
3:53 this whole scene just says "hey Dad I got a lift from prime I'll meet you at badwater!"
0:55 so Mimi must be illiterate
This is funny and wholesome to me
A fucking robot?
Best transformers animation in a long time.
Better than anything Hasbro has given us so far.
Thank you!
Anyone else saw the jet and just went "IT'S STARSCREAM!"?
I'm like four months late but idc but yes I was like STARSCREAM?!?! but why didn't he transform aswell-
@@kirbo-fk2kh probably too mucj of a coward to take on Optimus 1 on 1 without the aerial advantage. I don't blame him though.
@Lazer_Specter yeah true all transformers fans knowns how starscream would react to fighting Optimus we all know him he a coward
3:58 now look who’s stranded
This one of the best transformers animations yet. The models looks so good and faithful to the original designs, not only that but I found Optimus’s and Mimi’s interactions very cute
I don't know Team Fortress much but you know I'm a big fan of Transformers
Honestly this is a wholesome animation x3 💞
This is genuinely adorable, I'm mad that this is not popular. Such talent must be appreciated.
A mix of incredible animation for movement and peak sound effect work. Amazing experience. 10/10
I love the idea of Mimi meeting the transformers
Oh my god I need more animations with these two as a duo!
Holy crap this is amazing! As a TF and TF2 fan, it's the crossover I would've never imagined, but now I really want more of it!
Not a word is said (except for the Engi voiceline at the end), and yet you demonstrate effortlessly a deeper understanding of who Prime's supposed to be than the live action movies ever have.
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
I'd love to see more Mimi Sentry and Transformers things! They go together like Peanut Butter and Jelly!!! ^^
This was so unexpected and a treat this is so cool optumis looks stunning. ❤ Your dad is incredible
1:04 pipe sound effects alert ‼️
This animation is great honestly honestly tf2 can fit any genre of animation ps as long as there is a model lol but this animation is beautiful never thought of transformers and tf2 to ever exist but this shows a new light 😂 love the lighting and smooth movements but now I wonder how is Engie and medic going to escape the desert
Bro that is one of the best, if not THE best, Optimus Transformation I have ever seen!!! And the model and the animation and the F-15 Starscream, just WOW!!!! You guys need like a million subs man, your work is crazy good! Also loved the expressions you were able to give to Optimus and Mimi!!
1:34 if my gun was that small, I wouldn't draw attention to myself pal
Ice Age
@@jaimebarros5893 Finally someone gets it!!! Thank you
1:48 owwwww❤
Optimus Automatically
*proceeds to narrate the most intense and inspiring story he experienced in the war*
Is it just me or has the animation become simply divine? No, this is really a divine and sweet animation
VERY nice Mimi animation. Really enjoyed how expressive and lively she was there (the little sigh at 1:11 is especially cute). ♥
The parts where she moves her mouth like 0:47 and 1:38 was it an animated texture or something else (the rescaling in particular)?
Oh so basically I detached the mouth from the face, that way it was movable. I erased the area around the mouth texture and filled in the face. I can move around the mouth and rescale and rotate it, while I can also change the type of mouth that it is, from a grin to sad to angry, etc.
@@e-brosanimations231 I see, so pretty much a separate mesh(es) following the face. Thanks. 👍
@@ThatGrayCartoonPony The reason why I created this video was actually because I saw your animation! It was so uniquely and professionally animated, and you commented saying it should be a new standard. While my animation isn't FULLY up to that standard, I wanted to put in as much as I could!
@@e-brosanimations231 Honestly this is a very high standard. In fact several shots work so well that I don't see myself doing them very differently from you.
And also keep in mind: your project is 4min long. Assuming you've spend 1 month on the animation alone (the other 1-2 months being on everything else like Optimus' rig/BG/render/compo/audio...), that would technically mean that your animation quotas were roughly 8sec/day.
You literally delivered an animation which is of higher quality than most 3D children TV series with the exact same quotas. You can definitely be proud of it. 💪
(For comparison my test had barely 11sec of animation, on which I've spend 3-4 days (2 on the body alone). Which means it was 3-4sec/day.)
@@ThatGrayCartoonPonyAh I have my brother to thank for the direction. I am the animator, and he is the director. He comes up with the decisions on how the scene will play out, and I am the one who does the animation and modeling! We work as a team, and I don't think I'd be much without him lol. That's why the channels called E-Bros Animations!!!
Genuinely love how you characterised Optimus here so perfectly (and everyone else for that matter), even without dialogue
METAL GIAAAAAAANT! Her arm transformation is so cool love it
Im gonna sound very 🤓🤓 but for what i know the transformation at 3:26 is wrong. He is suppose to have the legs in front of him and then his torso spins arround. At least that's how the toy and even the rise of the beast transformation goes.
Ah I based mine off of the G1 cartoon animation.
Ohhhh that makes total sense. Great animation btw
I can only say that the interaction of the characters and the animation was very cute as well as the effects. 10/10
Y’all are insanely talented! TH-cam needs to push more of these guys out there!
This is the mimi sentry animation of all time
Reallyyy impressive work jokes aside
Yooo tysm!!! You're videos are part of the reason why I make Mimi sentry animations!
I am a transformers fan myself, and that transformation… WAS HELLA SMOOTH!!!!!
We need more animations like this. Probably a series based on mimi joining the autobots and fighting along side Optimus prime.
Dang, this could be a great series. This is one of the best Blender animations I've ever come across.
OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING AHHHHHH I HAVE NO WORDS. THIS IS LITERALLY A MASTERPIECE AND I LOVE IT WHEN OPTIMUS DECIDED TO BRING MIMI YOUR ANIMATION IS LITERALLY 3 MICHELIN STARSSSSS!!
This animation is AWESOME!
And you can tell that someone take sit seriously when they do "Secondary Animation" as well.
Medics reaction at the end cracked me up
Cutee
I love this!! Your Optimus Prime model is amazing!
Again, i really appreciate the use of sound effects from the live action movies and other media. They sound so good and make these feel so much more intense 💓
This is the first animation I have see form you and it is absolutely gorgeous!!! I love optimus prime and you nailed it with this.
Always feels good to hear Transformers Prime SFX. Very kino.
I was hoping someone would make this crossover! awesome work E-bros!
Awesome! You captured Optimus Prime perfectly.
Your animations are always so fluid, and the storytelling is spot on!
