Sarajevo: S Tier: I'm skipping back to Sarajevo because Vuฤko is a great example of nailing the assignment.
Not just because of the character- most mascots seem like a way to make junk plush toys, he actually added to the visual system of the '84 olympics.
Next up London. Yuck.
I guarantee you too many people worked on this and wrote a manifesto about what it means to be british (bad teeth) and like one asshole in the room made everyone's life miserable.
Salt Lake City: A- , I hate 'mascots' because some committee got involved but these guys actually look like friends. Only negative is i remember these games and I barely saw them and that's a SHAME. Love u, copper.
Sydney: F you guys get the most important year and you give us ugly characters more appropriate for a straight-to-vhs kids cartoon. They'd be the most disappointing Australians Americans had to look at until Jet.
Atlanta: D+ In 2024 this character is kinda wtf but now that the 90's are cool again I'm giving it a C+ because you could totally see him in an episode of Rocko's Modern Life.
Hodori - A basically doing what Korea does best from Kia to Samsung to Park Hye Jin: copy someone elses work. It's almost as good as Sarajevo, but not quite.
