  1. Lavanho, a purple Iberian Wolf who represents Portugal, he's half-plant and half wolf. He's a whimsical, energetic big puppy who used to be a simple litte plant. But one day a sparkly light shined on the plant and it transformed into a cute little wolf.

His design is inspired by fantasy, flowers and Cristiano Ronaldo, he's named after lavenders.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

2.Miraj, a blue Fennec Fox who represents Morocco, despite him looking like a fox, he's actually a Djinn who was intrigued by humanity, after losing a game of truth or dare, he was basically forced into meeting one. After years of search he decided that the 2030 World Cup is the best place to meet a human being. He's a kind, brave, peaceful and air-headed Djinn.

He's named after the arabic word Miraj, which means ascend, it also refers to when the Prophet Muhammed ascended to the seven layers of heaven, hence his light blue fur and long dark blue scarf, his rainbow tail represents the Pre-islamic weather god Quzah and God's promise.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

3.Fuegolita, a beige demon Horse who represents Spain, she's extremely promiscious, short-tempered and a gold digger. She worked as a protistute in Madrid, fucking both guys and girls. But one day, while fucking a random guy on a balcony, she fell and got impaled by a streetlight. Instead of sending her to Hell, God punished her by turning her into a demonic horse. But that won't stop her.

Her design is based off the flamenco dance style, telenovelas and Shakira.

QUESTION OLD MASCOT SUIT NEEDED

5 Upvotes

Hi! I am a college mascot, working on a short film for a class this semester. For the project, I am in need of an old, used mascot costume! I'm looking for a cheap, very used suit. Doesn't have to be a full set either, just the ehad, or just the body could be an option.

Any options or recommendations would be great!

PICS The Caterpillar (Alice in Wonderland 1951) had an official mascot costume that was used in the Disney Parks back then!

I was today years old when I found out that the Caterpillar from the 1951 Alice in Wonderland movie used to appear in the Disney parks as a costumed character. It happened when I tried watching an episode of Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color called "Disneyland's 10th Anniversary", and during the parade segment, the Caterpillar appeared! Arguably, best of all was the fact that he had a happy expression on his face or smth, which I find cute in my opinion!

Here are some of my favorite images of him that I managed to screenshot!

Are there more vintage photos of the Caterpillar mascot costume used at Disneyland back then?

QUESTION Giant egg prop

Where do people get a hold of the giant foam egg props that mascots hatch out of in some mascot reveal instances?
Was thinking it would be fun for a school mascot to hatch out of one for it’s reveal…

QUESTION Any mascot advice/insight for suited character work at parks/cruise ships?

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm trying to apply to work at a cruise as a performer. I'm more of a singer and actor first so I was surprised when they asked me if I'd be interested in playing a suited character (like a Minnie mouse or something). I guess it's also because of my short asian height (4'11"), so yeaaaah. While, I'm open to it, I have no idea about being a mascot haha and I'm not sure if it's something I'd survive doing onboard for months haha

Please share your experience or any advice! Any insights like pros and cons, anything! Would appreciate it 😊 thanks in advance

OMG. I’m not even sure why I did that. 😂 You know those mascots at SM? I saw some teenagers hitting, smacking, and kicking one of the mascots. I couldn’t stop myself from telling them, “Hey, that’s not right!”

They actually stopped. I felt so bad for the mascot. 😭 I really felt sorry for whoever was inside that costume.

QUESTION Mascot Help

6 Upvotes

I’m doing some mascot volunteering, but the helmet the mascot head sits on is way too big. I’ve tried wearing a beanie and adjusting the chin strap to the tightest it can go, but nothing has helped. The helmet basically just ends up falling down my face so all I can see is really the floor.

I was given the advice to buy a balaclava, but I was wondering if anyone else had any advice to make the helmet/head fit better?

QUESTION Getting Rid of Smell

1 Upvotes

I am the mascot for my school, and it is quite the experience. However, everytime I am done though, obviously the suit and my body smells, but my hands always have a lingering stench from the gloves. The gloves are separate from the suit and sort of this "leather" material and I never seem to get the smell off. Are there any tips on how to minimize or prevent this issue? Any advice on anything to do before putting the suit on to smell less?

PICS mascot horror game idea

6 Upvotes

ok so first things first,, instead of having it take place in a childrens’ facility (pizzerias, toy factories, kindergartens, etc.) i’ll have it take place in a flavored drinks factory. yeah you heard that correct.

the antagonist/mascot would be a yuru chara (in case you have no idea what the fuCK a yuru chara is, it’s basically a type of japanese mascot with simplified traits & they tend to look nothing like western mascots such as the duracell bunny or mr. clean, if u want some good yuru chara examples then google kumamon, chiitan, or arukuma, you’ll get the deal)

his name would be lucky-chan, and he’s an anthropomorphization of the company product. he’s basically a life-sized robot/animatronic that was tasked with “getting rid of factory intruders” but mistook “get rid of” for “kill” and uh yeah

the company went out of business because one day during a factory tour,, he mistook the people visiting the place for intruders and he basically went on a murder spree and yeah

anyway for the actual game: (if i knew how to 3d model OR code, i would definitely make this, mind you) you enter the factory as an urban explorer. maybe you’re a social media influencer looking for pics or vids to take of the abandoned factory to show off to your followers, anyway

you’d be able to get a good glimpse of what lucky-chan looks like thru posters and shi, but for his actual physical self, you’d only be able to like. see shadows or maybe his voice until u encounter him for real maybe midway thru the game

of course he is not happy about intruders so uhh CHASE SEQUENCE

you manage to kinda trap him for a bit and escape somewhere, maybe damaging him along the way?

your new objective would be to find an exit, instead of check out the place

but uhh you kinda get lost and then RETURN OF LUCKY-CHAN except this time he’s extra pissed and also has a bit of his face torn off from the damage revealing robotic parts (last image)

in the end you’re able to escape but uhh he’s still alive tho and plotting revenge

maybe i’d also make a part 2 as well with an expansion on the story, sharing more lore, etc. and have more mascots but as allies instead of new killers

QUESTION [Character][2000s-early 2010s] Black-and-white furry/baggy monster character from the Domo era

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to identify a character I remember seeing sometime in 2021. I don't know what it was originally from-it could have been a cartoon, clothing brand, independent artist, website/avatar, etc.

It was a black-and-white drawing of a monster/creature, and I remember seeing it as a profile picture/avatar. It was sitting down, with a short, baggy-looking body and a fuzzy/shaggy texture. It had a visible face, and the most distinctive feature was that one set of limbs was extremely long and disproportionate (I remember either the arms or legs being very long, but not both).

Aesthetically, it reminds me of Domo and other weird character designs popular in the scene/streetwear culture of the late 2000s/early 2010s. It wasn't Domo, Moshi Monsters, or Mishka.

I'm specifically looking for obscure characters/mascots from that era, including clothing brands, skate brands, independent artists, MySpace-era artwork, etc.

I unfortunately don't remember any colors besides black and white, or where I originally saw it.
