almost all mascots are fugly imo, some just less and others just more.
I want remake of Akira in 2020.

Rio's 2016

2010's and 2016's are objectively the best.

Better question, which has had the worst mascot?

I actually like them both. They're cute, but I like the 2018 ones slightly more.

athens 2004?

I prefer world cup mascotts

no one will top 2006

Nothing beats Atlanta '96

Is this a Japan vs Korea thread?

I guess. Korea took the safe approach to 2018 to success while Japan is taking a risky approach to 2020, and it will be an uphill battle to get people to like their mascots.

Oh God you could have left out the date on this and I would have guessed the 90s USA cause this thing is fucking 90s cartoon made physical.

these fuckers are too cute

The cripplympics is the best.

Nothing can top Zabivaka.

These things are selling for $5,000 on the collectors market. The ones with the hats were given only to medalists and never sold to the general public.

Its always japan; they had pedobear

*blocks your path*

Yeah yeah Olympics but why wait 4 years for that shit

Dios mio!

>Zabivaka sounds almost exactly as Zabiyaka

which means "killer".

that's a fucking murrsuit

Japan's looks like the main characters in a throwback mascot platformer you'd get for $30 on eshop.

I wanna hug the Paralympics 2020 mascot and never let her go.

So, what was the deal with these things? They don't look like something the Japanese would design or find cute.

he's cute.

Willie is the only true World Cup Lion.

Speaking of Russian mascots...

Good lord those are all hideous.

Russian Pooh best Pooh.

>ciao
>stickman
huh?

What this guy said
Vancouver 2010's mascots are perfect

first 5 sure are, Ciao is strange indeed.

but all the animal ones are fine, save for Goleo, who's like Big Bird's parody.

Ato Kaz Nik are the worst

I'm 100% certain that was designed by a furry.

so was zootopia, what's your point?

Fina 2017 had some strange ones. Atleast naming wise.

Vancouver 2010.

I'm ashamed somebody in my city designed/approved this. Should have just went with a cute generic peach.

>so for 1990 we decided to go with an abstract 3d geometric form doing...something with a football.

I know porn exists for the 2020 mascot, because they were drawn within mere hours after the candidate mascots were announced.

That face looks mildly concerned

I keep thinking Freddy Freaker here.

I like these guys, they look comfy.

>h-hey buddy, you alright?

what's with Mexico and internalized racism?

youtube.com/watch?v=r3lsCOHiBHM

it was different time

favourite non olympic mascots?

I don't see a drug cartel character. Unless I missed it

If by "internalized racism" you mean "not being little bitches about their stereotypes"

>I just, I can't even

For the Korea/Japan mascots, it seems they tried to be as neutral as possible (i.e. not displaying cultural things from either country) but they just look ugly and forgettable.

This guy. I've got a figma version of him somewhere.

"Zabiyaka" does not mean "killer", it's what you call someone who likes picking fights.
t. Russian

yes, in russian.
i was thinking about my own language - polish.

You talking shit about the Maasai?

i'm glad they picked wolf. they're rarely the "good guys"

We love it, here in mexico we're racist as fuck

t. Pedro

Fucking Naranjito, I was born in 87, why was your ugly face still around in my childhood.

Japan could've chosen a tanuki or a fox, but they went with the least Japanese-looking things.

Yeah, you can't get any better than that. For such a huge worldwide event, why are Olympic mascots almost always fugly?

What the hell, A is the only one that doesn't look good. Did Japan vote on these? I knew they had shit taste but yeesh

Ciao was dope.

Japanese children voted on these, yeah.
