Bejing 2008 Mascots That Never Made It - Beibei the Rights-Abusing Panda

Apparently the guys at Headline Shirts have discovered some additional mascots for the Bejing olympics that didn’t quite make the cut including Beibei the Rights-Abusing Panda. Features include barbed wire Bejing icon, Olympic Handcuffs, night stick, and of course Olympic torch. Of course I can’t see this without thinking of Sexual Harassment Panda from South Park >grin<

Beijing, China - Adorable and innocent — if a tad infantile — the five Olympic mascots, known as Fuwa, have been winning the hearts of children globally.

Lesser known is that the saccharine Fuwa characters were not the first choice of the Olympic organizers, who considered adopting characters more representative of modern China. Headline Shirts has acquired exclusive sketches of three of the would-be mascots. They include Beibei the Rights-Abusing Panda, Jingjing the Monk-Impaling Tibetan Antelope, and Yuyu, a swallow who brings good luck wherever she flies — and who also directs a murderous organ-harvesting campaign against the Falun Gong.
