    Oh, look, Mimoco is back with a couple of new USB flash drives. These particular Mimobots come in the likeness of everyone's second favorite morphing robot rivals -- Optimus Prime and Megatron. (Obviously Cy-Kill and Leader-1 take the top slot in our hearts.) Sadly, these Transformer thumb drives don't actually transform, but they do come preloaded with screensavers, wallpapers, and digital comics... if you're into that sort of thing. The Autobot and Decepticon leaders are available now, starting at $23 for 2GB of storage and reaching $60 for the 16GB model. PR is after the break.

    It's no secret that we're very fond of Hello Kitty gadgets -- just like pretty much everyone else on the planet. And Sanrio's lucrative partnership with Mimoco has spun the famous cat's rep into... more awesome flash drives. It seems like Sanrio is always celebrating some kind of birthday, and for the company's 50th anniversary they've busted out more than their fair share of gear. This time, it's a "classic" Hello Kitty flash drive that comes in 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB capacities. We're kind of in love with Kitty's elongated face on this model, so if you so choose, you can grab one of these up for a starting price of $34.95.

    They're so cute! The first time you hold one of Mimoco's Master Chief mimobot USB flash drives you want to play with it like a doll action figure, but then you realize you're a big boy now and keep that imagination in check. The Halo mimobots are an officially licensed limited edition series of USB flash drives. There's 5,000 of the Master Chief one and 3,000 each of the Red and Blue Spartans. They officially don't go on sale until Oct. 18 (to coincide with E for All), but you can always pre-order if you know you "must has Mastah Chief storin ur dataz."The Halo mimobots don't come empty, they'll contain Halo-related content like wallpapers, screensavers, soundBytes, unpublished pages of the upcoming Marvel Halo comic, sections of the Halo 3 strategy guide, excerpts from the upcoming Halo novel and an exclusive episode of This Spartan Life. The USB 2.0 drives are PC, Mac (Xbox 360, PS3) compatible and come in three different capacities: 1GB ($50), 2GB ($70) and 4GB ($110). Mimoco also has a Star Wars and Happy Tree Friends series too. Definitely a nice alternative to boring flash drives, and if you really want one it's probably not a good idea to wait until Oct. 18. Wonder if there'll be Brute and Arbiter versions next?%Gallery-7793%
