Two-parts Pokemon to one-part lava lamp with yellow 'Taxi’ lights on their foreheadsWell, how utterly adorable. How I can't wait to rush out and buy merchandise with their precious little faces on it.
Check out this horrifying video at the London 2012 website.
You know, I had thought that the artistically backward lot of nimrods in charge of the London Games could not possibly do worse than their disgusting train wreck of a logo. Never underestimate the power of stupid people working in groups!
That I am an ardent Anglophile is no secret, but so far the London Olympics effort has been nothing less than an epic fail on virtually all artistic fronts.
UPDATE: This British tabloid says that each mascot's huge single eye is actually supposed to be a camera that "lets [it] record everything." WHAT? That's just sounds creepy and intrusive, though maybe it's also a reflection of London's five gazillion trillion CCTV cameras. Um ... EW.
