Star Wars Mimobots: Mission Complete

Posted on November 22, 2006 Under Gadgetry

We have kept you informed about Mimoco’s gradual release of their Star Wars Series 1 Mimobots, and we’re happy to report that Series 1 is now complete. The missing link was R2D2— and it appears as though evolution has worked rapidly with him, as he now has arms and legs. Despite his recent adaptation from robot to Mimobot, I think he makes a worthy addition to the Mimo family. Mimobots are souped-up USB keys for those of you who don’t know, and make for a great holiday gift idea– they’re inexpensive, fun, and functional. Most Mimobot designs (in 1, 2, and 4 GB sizes) should be available to purchase before the holidays, but you have to pre-order the Star Wars Series 1 bots, and they won’t arrive until about January 9th (just in time for people to head back to work with lots of data to save). We’re already betting on what Star Wars Series 2 will bring– I’m hoping for Princess Leia.
