    Trapped in my own thoughts.
    Two stageplays, a screenplay, and an album
    I'd rather submit Segata Sanshiro. There's a mascot who didn't deserve to die when he did.

    Sanshiro likely has likeness rights issues with the actor portraying him.

    These are adorable and IMO ripe for merchandising. The dragon thing and the bat actually seem like perfect mascots for the vintage collections, too bad they've come a bit too late.

    My first thought on seeing that one =P Probably not the best mascot as a result.

    I honestly thought there was going to be some official thing where they replaced Sonic with Hatsune Miku as their main branding character... which would make a ton of fucking sense, actually.

    Anyway I dislike how a bunch of them are just redesigns of existing mascots, but I do like the 16-Bit Bat.

    Sega has proven in recent years that they are trying to go back to basics, I think the next logical choice for the Sega mascot would be this:

    I can see this go on T-Shirts, posters, and commercials everywhere. :)

    Bumping because today's the last day, if anyone still wants to submit something. Here's mine- http://seiga.nicovideo.jp/seiga/im3170147

    If when you submit you get an error page, just clear your cache.

    This art gives me an Alex Kidd vibe :P Ahh Memories :)

    Looks like Worms too

    I think the mascot should be Ristar. I kinda like the tiger one, that's the best of all of them.

    How about your avatar bird, GT?

    Wait, then it'll be like Twitter :v: and they will sue SEGA for infringement of their patent mascot, and then SEGA will be broke :(

    Heck Yes! Sanshiro-San!

    Aww, it's cute and cool. I like it.

    I completely forgot about this. I have a bad habit of making things for contests and not submitting them. Went to go dig up the sketch I did when they announced it.
