Too bad I am not able to take a clear, large photo of BeiBei, JingJing, HuanHuan, YingYing and NiNi. The box was wrapped in plastic, so I had to shot this photo “as is”.
For those of you who do not know yet, BeiBei the first kid from the left is a Fish, followed by JingJing who is in a Panda costume, then followed by big brother HuanHuan representing the Olympic flame (just look at his head gear!), next is YingYing in a Tibetan Antelope costume and NiNi who is the Swallow.
I absolutely love the idea that their names, using the first syllable each, collectively means "Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni" meaning "Beijing Welcomes You" in Chinese.
So, me so cheap, will never buy this Olympic mascots myself no matter they are official Beijing Olympic merchandise or imitation. I do, however, would love to keep them since it's the Olympics! Who wants to buy for me? RM50 cheap only, wat? :p
