This has been bugging me for a while but why are the 'things' that are created
from human transmutation (Which has been stated is impossible) so randomly
generated.

Ed and Al set out to transmute their dead mother but turns out to create some
weird thing which was later identified to be some random male with black hair.

If anything why doesn't the end result of the transmutation be something more
similar to what they initially wanted to revive? Why male not female? Why
black hair not brown hair?

Additionally, what are they actually, other than failed outcomes of human
transmutation?

Essentially, human transmutation was depicted to be impossible to do.

The reason why it doesn't look what they intended it to look like is because
they just screwed up that hard.

What they ended up with was something kinda sorta vaguely human, but only
barely.

From looking at the picture you've posted, a lot of the pieces of a human are
there, but they're not all correctly done and they're not all in the right
place. It really doesn't look that random to me; if anything, it looks like a
predictable (while still major) screw-up.
