The New Olympic Mascots


So London has unveiled the new mascots for their 2012 Summer Olympics: Wenlock and Mandeville. I don't know what to think of them. I don't even know what they are. Somehow this pair is supposed to help raise 15 million pounds through merchandising. I suppose it's possible. After their issues with their logo, I suppose I thought they might take a different track with their mascots. Oh well.

Part of the reason for the cyclops-style eyes, evidently, is so that they can make digital cameras that look like them and have their single eye be the lens to the camera. I tell ya, these guys think of everything!
