Wenlock and Mandeville are so adorable and the London 2012 Olympics was the beginning of me being an athlete people say oh your one of the slowest people on earth it makes me cry but I just get back on feet and practice till it's perfect

Might not be the most realistic mascot ever to grace Olympics advertising, but they are creative and fun; and definitely don't exclude anyone. I'm thrilled to see a Paralympic mascot side-by-side with the Olympic mascot getting just as much face time. Besides, regardless of what they look like, as long as there are people giving them this much personality and heart, then they serve to inspire the world. Loved the way they tried out the sports!

This is just heartwarming!

This video is really cute and makes me feel proud of being British ahead of London 2012. Creative, imaginitive, inclusive and stylish

This video is so cute and creative. Very inspiring for toddlers!

Crying? I can't watch it without smiling.

Love that they are starting an adventure! Love that kids will Love them! This video gets better with each viewing too!

They look awesomez!!! I want them SOOO badly!!!

Wenlock and Mandeville are adorable!! :) I will buy some souvenirs featuring them. They are more cuter when they make that cute little giggle.

these are amazing mascots shame no one else likes em there so cool

a perfect mixture of cute and creepy i love it

I thought these mascots were cool, and the story line was very heart warming.

i loved this video it was amazing

i love them, they are totally different to any other olympic mascot and they are amazingly cute !!!

I read one of their Beano comic strips. They are a bit more articulate in the comic strip than they are in this film but it has to be admitted that Tom and Jerry are a lot more articulate in their comic strips.

That children laugh at 2:12 is used in EVERY SINGLE TV SHOW!! I remember it in Diddy Kong Racing for Nintendo 64!!

Oh my gawwwwd this is so cute

mandeville and wenlock are too under appreciated

I think that Wenlock and Mandeville suit their target audience, children 5 to 15 really well. They're bold bright and modern. Also being made of steel helps to reflect Britain as an industrial nation with a an unbreakable spirit. I think they're really cleverly designed and show that the London 2012 olympics are modern and contemporary

I love this.

AWE THEY ARE SO CUTE!

Aww they're so cute! I love it =) Got both of the plushies for Christmas ^.^

I am impressed by our imagination and technical brilliance on this creation, just as in our Olympic logo, we show what we're made of.

They really need to bring out some plushy versions of these!

those things are so cool!

i loved the video

we aint the most creative as you can tell we cant offer an amazing opening ceremony like the Chinese but what we can offer is an atmosphere unlike any other

I love it!!! they are like from out of space!!!! I don't know why some complain about it? Let it go guys!!!! Finally some amazing cool stuff

I like them. so cute. I am also impressed :)

Nice! I like it a lot.

Love these two Sports Techie's!

These mascots are totally awesome. I don't know what you guys are talking about.

They're so cute!

That's a very... interesting little piece there.

Alexander Dale Oen should have been there. I'll never forget you, Alex. My biggest role model ever.

Before I watched this video the new mascots seemed kind of creepy looking, but after watching this video, I suppose that they are kind of cute and clearly aimed at selling to kids, something that will have to be done if the Olympic games are to be successful in future years as well as this year.

They are better mascots then the 2010 winter games mascots that is for sure.

so adorable!!!

Interesting looking mascots.

Great way to get the kids interested.

London 2012 Mascots - Out of a Rainbow - my kids liked it when they saw this played. The logo is growing on me now that some of the designs have come out. Only 675 days to go until the opening ceremony. I wonder how may BorisBikes will still be in the Capital by then?

Nice mascots!

i like the mascots as well and the opening ceremony was AWESOME!!!!!!!! british can do a big sport holiday...

is it me or have i just been missing them through out the games so far?

I thought I was going crazy, but I could see the same just like you, mate!!!

This story makes the mascots sense otherwise I wouldn't of liked them as much but how can you not love these super cute super cool Mascots designed for children not design experts.

I was just thinking the other day that our mascots haven't been as well publicized as others in previous games. with cartoons and so forth. This set of cartoons completely passed me by. They could have done with broadcasting it more.

@midnightalastor its ment to represent the uk as both names are historic famous places in london and they made the idea of having two metal things, cuz two drips came from the last gurder thing for the olympic stadium. :)

Cant wait for my plushes to get here co their just so adorable more adorable than any other

I liked them. Greetings from Colombia! I bet the customes will be out of this world!

Wenlock is so cute

How wholesome...

I kinda like them :) Cool first post! :)

Aww what a nice story

this Olympic I watch it was the best even my friends and my family even the teacher watch it. well do some more next time and I really like mascots and you was the best one ever :D I wish I would go to London because I want to be in a Olympic

I really didn't like the mascots. I didn't like that they had one eye either. But I've grown really really fond of Wenlock, I find that mascot so cute. I even have one of the official Wenlock keyrings and a plush toy. I loved this story :D Made me happy.

cutest thing ever.

Got no human grace, they're eyes without a face.

I seriously thought the kids were going to receive SHOES the first time I watched this.

very adorable, as for me

Cool

@Firegrubs I completely agree! And why do the numbers 2012 look reminiscent of ice chuncks? I thought this was the Summer Olympics?

lovely

they are sooooooo cute

I like them, they have a lot of potential and flexibility!

they'll be there in spirit :D

Better than many other Olympic mascots. And there are many other children's characters who you could say are ugly and boring. Wenlock and Mandeville are to say the least original.

I love these, they are super cute. Nice little story line. Not a rubbish cuddly lion. Original and different.

they are lovely...:)

So, in a nutshell, George retired, and using the bits of metal left over he made these little statue things for his grandchildren, who ungratefully let them out the window.

This video is so cute

Soooo CUTE

Cold metal, souless and incomplete. You made up some very strange stuff here.

Apparently Google rankings are everything ... As I stated once before "Go Britain!!!"

I like it :)

Whoa! That was creapy. I don't scare easy but that one just about did it. Anyone else just a little weirded out on that?

its funny how the grandpa could make a larger and heavier sculpture than the materials he used to make them

oh it does :-) it truly does

that was really cool i want a metal thing even iff it dosent come to life

Very cute without being kitschy.

tht was acutally really cute i started tearing up for some odd reason. I would love to have those as plushies

i love the doggie ^w^

I actually think this is a pretty cool explanation considering I also think the mascots look awesome lol

I love these mascots, modern, fashionable and out of a fairytale lol

2.16 to 2.19 LOL that part was cute :P

They looked bad when I first saw them, but they're actually quite cool

I like the mascots

Nice one :D

it's like a disney trailer

oh so cuteeeeeeeeeeee :3

As cute and charming as these characters are, they don't seem like.. Olympic mascot material. But whatever sells more merch to the children, I guess. Personally, i think they belong in a Pixar movie. And don't get me wrong, they'd probably have an absolutely adorable movie. I can't take them seriously, though.

at first i really didn't like the design for the mascots. but now i've grown rather fond of them =) especially after seeing Wenlock cheering on the athletes during the Men's 10,000m Final. this film gave me a warm fuzzy feeling in my stomach (and no, it's NOT nausea).

they look kinda cute :)

are the big eyes in reference to how london has security camera's everywhere and how england's becoming more and more like 1984? perhaps

Sorry, I don't recall the Olympic's target audience being TV Y-7... China's presentations kicked ass.

...wow - they certainly are different. But I do kind of like them :)

These are great, a bit like Pokemon or the things in Monsters Inc.

Aww they are cute I reckon.

i cried

wish i had two of those
