Piggy Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Really horrible. The Vancouver ones looked like anime characters and I thought that was weird enough, but this is just messed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Derf Veteran Posted May 20, 2010 Veteran Share Posted May 20, 2010 Why do we need mascots? Aren't they just "living" logos for something that is already represented by a logo? Merchandising. There is only so many logo-based T-shirts than one can sell in a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vambo Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 This is all part of our excellent plan. When the British athletes see those mascots they will run faster than light just to get away from them!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V-Tech Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Maybe the UK knows something that the rest of the world doesnt and actually aliens will participate in the 2012 Olympic games... So the mascots were made to greet the new alien athletes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoXY Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 A true demonstration of "designed by comity". Way the go. Did anyone at any point take a step back and go: "oh my god. what the hell is that" No? k. Glad we had this talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epple Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Meh, I think they are okay. It's quite obvious they are catered toward children and it's very apparent in the video where they mimic the things they see, something many children may relate to (this is also enhanced by the huge eye and 'playful' appearance). It wouldn't surprise me if children have been a big part of the process in bringing these forth. That being said, I have not seen any other contribution and I must say the official logo looks very bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Derf Veteran Posted May 20, 2010 Veteran Share Posted May 20, 2010 First of all, you'd have to know about Quatchi from Vancouver 2010: In a shot at Vancouver's mascots, he added later: "Surely the one with the blue stain in his nether regions is named Crotchi?" http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-notebook/is-british-coalition-to-blame-for-ugly-olympic-mascots/article1575523/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giantpotato Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I saw this on the news this morning, and some kids were raising their arms like the mascots. It looked suspiciously like the Nazi salute (although left-handed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
