Im missing the reach of the mirage monster's attack. It doesn't have a stat block (as it is a variant) but any changes should be stated in the main text.
I suppose the pseudopods reach is 15 feet, because that's the reach of the grasping pseudopod legendary action; but is the bite reach still 5 ft, even though its a huge creature?
 


Never quite got why they're monstrosities and not aberrations or oozes.

Love the mirage monsters! Of course, as a horror DM, I'm prone to loving any sort of house-sized mimic.
Because they are not from another plane (aberrations) and they're basically normal flesh (unlike oozes).
 



So what kind of flesh are oozes?
and is there a rule that says all Abberations are extra-planar?
In 3e Mimics were Aberations and I for one would rather view mimics as Aberations r
Very Squishy.
Rule? No. But they usually are. They may have become naturalized on the material plane, though.
And you are free and welcome to do so.

(Honestly, I don't really care what they are classified as - I was just spitballin' ideas as to why they could be classed monstrosities.)
