(San Diego, CA – July 12, 2012) – Mimoco (www.mimoco.com), creator of the MIMOBOT® line of designer USB flash drives and MIMOMICRO® card readers, under license from Hasbro, Inc., is introducing new G.I.

Each G.I. JOE X MIMOBOT and TRANSFORMERS x MIMOBOT designer USB flash drive comes in a range of up to 64GB of memory capacity and comes preloaded with exciting bonus media. G.I.

TRANSFORMERS x MIMOBOT Series 2 also features Mimory™ & mimoDesk™ content and both series include mimoByte™ sound software that plays whenever a G.I. JOE or TRANSFORMERS X MIMOBOT is plugged into your computer!
“We’ve been working with Hasbro on this particular set of 80′s re-imagination for some time and we hope others respond to its ‘Rad Factor’ as much as we do. The power of the 80s just can’t be denied… this one amazing era produced so much that still thrives today…and right at the top of the list for us are G.I. JOE and TRANSFORMERS,” says Mimoco’s Director of Media & Licensing, Scott Seraydarian. “But in spite of all the reboots that have been coming out recently, we felt that the 80′s classics still weren’t getting the love they so richly deserve. Following Mimoco’s core philosophy of “Refresh your Memory”, we set out to change that. “Refreshing Your Memory” is the collision of what’s known and what’s new… something familiar, yet fresh. These traits are embodied perfectly in this series.”
SNAKE EYES MIMOBOT® – SNAKE EYES is the code name of one of the original and most mysterious members of the G.I. JOE team. A deadly master of multiple martial arts, little is known about his past, but with his trademark black ninja body suit, and face-masking visor, SNAKE EYES MIMOBOT will guard your documents, music, pics, and data with the speed and agility of a real ninja master. He’ll never let your data fall into the hands of his archenemy STORM SHADOW or the treacherous clutches of COBRA COMMANDER!
