The problem is that the mascot has to be instantly associated with the company. When you say "Disney" you think Mickey Mouse. McDonald's is Ronald McD. Marvel Comics is Spider-Man. Nintendo is Mario. On occasion you get two mascots (Batman and Superman for DC, arguably Link for Nintendo), but most of the time there is one who clearly stands out above all the others. None of these have yet stepped up to grab the mantle. As someone said earlier, the fact that there is no immediate concensus means that there just isn't a mascot.
