gertlush Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 They've unveiled the mascots for the Vancouver Olympics, the Sasquatch is alright but I don't know about the other two. Quote

jmace Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 I dont think Vanoc is confused on who will be buying these things... They are all Hello-Kitty esque Quote
gertlush Posted November 27, 2007 Author Posted November 27, 2007 Personally I thought it was being to be a property developer...condos condos condos!! Just watch out when they start leaking 20 years from now Quote
rmncwrtr Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 If the marketing department was trying to appeal to kids, they succeeded. My four year old daughter wants a Miga. "Oh, it's adorable." My nine year old a Sumi. Green is one of the fave colors for the tweener set and they use it with both the little mascots. I'm guessing my 7 yo son will go for the Quatchi, especially with the blue ear muffs since that is his favorite color. Now all they have to offer is a secret code (ala Webkinz) when you buy one of the stuffed animals that lets you log in via the Internet and be part of a virtual Olympic Village so you can visit all the event venues and take part in competitions to win gold, silver and bronze.

I am so stealing your idea and making a million dollarz! Quote
PaulB Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 I am so stealing your idea and making a million dollarz! Too late.... they've already got it covered. From the 2010 press release: The second phase of the vancouver2010.com mascot program is scheduled for 2008, when additional online games and interactive features will be added. The online program takes traditional Games mascots to a new level, leveraging the reach of the internet so that children around the world can experience the mascots. Quote
G-spotter Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 Didja see that the mascots have a mascot themselves? Muk-muk the marmot Quote
111 Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 All we gotta do is brand his chest with the olympic rings and he'll do just fine Quote
gertlush Posted November 28, 2007 Author Posted November 28, 2007 And so I guess this steaming turd of a logo for something else? Not sure why they keep stealing all their ideas from the natives and then making them all squishy & cute...christ they made the Sasquatch look gay! He's gonna be pissed. Quote
jordop Posted November 28, 2007 Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) Yeah, exactly. Edited June 4, 2021 by jordop Quote
G-spotter Posted November 28, 2007 Posted November 28, 2007 Anyways, they're better than Ernie: Quote
