Hoptimus Prime:This design, for the Robotic style hare, came from a brief with the sponsors who were after a cutting-edge style character to represent them. In their workplace they have a stunning Bionic man mural and wanted the hare to take a similar theme, so Mik designed him to have ceramic panels, with pistons and gears, electronic wires and glimmering led tubes behind a skin of mesh, glowing visor, with computerized readouts and a pixelated atomic powered heart in his chest. If you thought Hares were fast, then this one is like lightning!
