A couple weeks ago, we asked for your ideas and suggestions for Vega’s upcoming Bingo Mascot and out of that came the great suggestion of having vega’s mascot be similar to the a troll with crazy hair. TahDah! Today, I’d like to share with you some rough sketches of how the progress of Shoupie is coming along.
One and two are the sketches that are similar to the trademarked treasure troll. For copyright reasons, we won’t use the above but we can certainly use the original troll dolls as inspiration to create Shoupie.
Here are several more options to consider.
What do you think, are we on the right path? Which one of these sketches do you like most?

I like the no. 8 sketch, it is a troll, but does not look like one so much, I have always been told that trolls were evil, I guess it is what ever you beleive, Good luck with it.
27eyewin1 on Mar 5, 2009 at 3:11 pm:
I love #8 Pretty different than others. But I'm betting it is going to be #4.
28eyewin1 on Mar 5, 2009 at 3:17 pm:
LOVE #8 reminds of my personality. Could use a slight grin! #4 close second.

37Vegablogger on Mar 10, 2009 at 8:49 pm:
It's going to be tough … we may have to run a poll on top 3 picks and go from there. I'm sure we'll discuss tomorrow.
Thanks everyone for all your feedback. Vega members rock!

38Joel on Mar 13, 2009 at 2:30 pm:
omg what a such a difficult choice to make!
To update everyone, majority of the suggestions have been for Shoupie # 8 and Shoupie #11. We're happy with each one of the concepts as they're all adorable but looking at the bigger picture, we're leaning towards shoupie # 8.
But he needs a bit of work … so he'll go under the pencil for a bit of cosmetic make over and will be available for a sneak peak by next week . Stay tuned….
39ruby23 on Mar 29, 2009 at 11:51 pm:
they are all so cute, but i like number 2 , cause hes carrying the money back lol ruby23
4014mary48 on Mar 30, 2009 at 7:43 pm:
