The recently concluded San Diego Comic Con saw the launch of the Bossy Bear Mimobot – Mimoco’s latest addition to its artist USB flash drive line. The company collaborated with toy and storybook artist David Horvath to turn his blue book character, Bossy Bear, into a storage device.
It’s no secret that we think Mimobots are the shiznit here at TechRockstar, especially when they’re collaborative, art toy-storage mash-ups. The latest to come out of the Mimobot factory are exactly that – manufacturer Mimoco has teamed up once again with toy outfit FriendsWithYou to come up with two, striped and certainly very friendly Mimobots.
We’ve seen and have been coveting the new Star Wars Series 4 Mimobot flash drives for a while, but what we really wanted to get a glimpse of was the Luke Skywalker series exclusive. Mimoco has unmasked now, and it shows Luke Skywalker’s vision of himself on Dagobah in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back.
Announced last May, the Star Wars Series 4 Mimobots have been released, and the secret characters revealed. The dark side of the Force is stronger in the Mimoco Labs these days, as this latest series features the previously announced Darth Maul, two variants of Darth Vader Unmasked and Clone Captain Rex.
Darth Maul and other yet-to-be-revealed characters from that galaxy far far away will be coming out as Mimobots in June. Designer flash drive manufacturer Mimoco is celebrating the tenth anniversary of Star Wars: Episode I, The Phantom Menace by adding to its existing Star Wars line-up that already has the likes of Wicket the Ewok, Princess Leia and C-3PO.
