    Kang and Kodos...?


    Looks like them, amyway....

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Wenlock sounds like a drunk PM someone might send a moderator.

    Just thank the lord the Olympics aren't in Ireland! We'd probably have some sort of Gerry Ryan / Stephen Gately tribute in our mascot!

    Simply awful.

    I mean the logo looks like Lisa Simpson blowing someone first of all. These mascots make no sense. What do they have to with the Olympics?

    I think they are supposed to be pieces of the Olympic Stadium. They're training for the Olympics and will arrive to put the final piece (themselves) in the stadium come the opening ceremony.

    Like the way they integrate the famous yellow lights of the London black cabs in the design.

    Err, they're mascots, they're supposed to be a bit quirky.

    I think they're quite clever, especially the names, they reflect London's heritage with regards the olympics.

    One of them looks like a Jedward in a wind tunnel.

    They look like Rice Krispies from that Squares ad where the Rice is legging it from the Mellow..

    A lot actually. Google Much Wenlock and Stoke Mandeville and find out.
