Last night they showed some of the previous mascots, must say I don't remember a single one. So overall, does it really matter what they look like? Do people care that much or is it just another opportunity to moan at something else?
as a cartoon charecter they look great roll on 2012 they look better than lisa simpson giving head which is all we had to look at in the last 24 months
Online they look quite good and have a promising story line around them from Michael Morpurgo
says nothing about England
apart from their cabbie lights and the (English) history behind their names that is
Probably a big step up from previous mascots (if I could remember any of them).
Don't let some facts get in the way of a knee jerk reaction
"It's new and I've not seen it before so it must be bad. Give me something old that has been done before 100s of times so I don't have to think or challenge myself"
It's just a load of hoity toity, namby pamby, goody-goody, lotti-dotti, trendy lefty guardian reading graduate from Thames Valley University who's just spent two years fannying about. With a pen.

Saw that last week Salad.....I didn't laugh then either. Soap dodgers with too much time on their hands trying to be controversial/funny and failing at both.

I suspect a fraction of the money that LOCOG will make from them
Another couple of weeks and Gordon Brown could have applied for the job of Olympic Mascot...
But they are superb. My 'Olympic 2012 Experience' will now be significantly enhanced.
Well done, LO COE ... err ... CHOCLOG (or whatever).
