twi Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Very obviously inspired by the originals. Unique color scheme I would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knnhrvy16 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I dig it. Really nice package that ties in well with the former club. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I dunno about the heavy emphasis on the sun. It feels like it overpowers and washes out the purple and teal to an extent. Eagerly awaiting the jerseys.

CityOfWalrus Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Bosack did these didn't he? I love em, I've always loved the Solar Bears original logo and the team itself, glad to see the update and I love it, once I see the jerseys I may have to find a way to get my hands on one.

RuffDawg Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 The old identity was so bad, it was good. This time around it's just plain good -- the only thing I don't like is the disproportionate sun in the primary and shoulder logos. There comes a point when you don't stand for the constant heartbreak anymore, and walk away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsfan1 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 All kinds of awesome here. The colors fit the identity perfectly and the bear looks like he's chilling out in the sun, which makes sense given the name. They really nailed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamblinGamblinTiger Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I love the bear part of the logo, and the colors, but I absolutely hate that typeface choice. I understand it's supposed to mimic the original logo with the type layout, but I think they could have done better with the font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windstorm Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I think they did an awesome job with these! They've kept the charm of the original logo without looking outdated. It's unique, but not obnoxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Such an awesome identity. It fits the region perfectly, the name is both unique and witty, and perfectly minor-league, but doesn't seem cliched. The colours are about as original as they could get, and the actual logos look pretty cool. Just love it.Just like CityofWalrus said, I think I might try to get one of their jerseys if they turn out as well as the logos.

Lights Out Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I love it! Gone is the Trollface bear and excess detail, it's just a great modernized logo with a unique color scheme. Can't wait to see the sweaters. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undead Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Really nice update. First thing that stood out to me is there's something off with the way he's holding the stick. The angle of his left hand(our right) is wrong or something. Other than that, really solid update Joe!

nash61 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 "Shades,"the team's mascot, is once again the primary focus of the mark wearing his signature sunglasses while positioned in a different pose. He's cool under pressure and confident.We combined the wordmark and the Solar Bears' upper torso together to complete the primary logo. The illustrated "O" for Orlando, in the shape of the Sun, rests comfortably behind "Shades". In our shoulder patch illustration, the "O" for Orlando is more obvious surrounding one of "Shades" paws."

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.
