STAR WARS MIMOBOT Series 4 Unveils Darth Maul and Additional Characters, Releasing June 10th

BOSTON, MA - May 19, 2009 – Mimoco, makers of the MIMOBOT collection of designer USB flash drives, is celebrating the tenth anniversary of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace with an all-new series of themed MIMOBOT characters, beginning with the iconic, tattooed face of the deadly Sith apprentice, Darth Maul.

Episode I’s fan favorite Sith villain is scheduled to be released on June 10th at mimoco.com and will be accompanied by additional Star Wars characters that will be revealed on that date as well. Darth Maul is the thirteenth character in the Star Wars MIMOBOT collection of flash drives, joining current Series 3 characters such as evil Darth Sidious, the Emperor’s Royal Guard, adorable Wicket the Ewok, and the golden protocol droid C-3PO.

Stay tuned for more exciting Star Wars MIMOBOT transmissions over the next couple weeks to see what develops in Series 4. Mimoco’s original limited edition Star Wars MIMOBOT Series was released in 2006 with most characters long since sold out. The MIMOBOT line, available in 1GB to 8GB capacities, is known for exclusive preloaded digital extras that include Star Wars-themed icons, avatars, screensavers, wallpapers, and the mimoByte™ Sound Software that plays authentic Star Wars audio clips when MIMOBOT is inserted or ejected from one’s computer.

Since 2005, Mimoco has fused the art of contemporary characters with the functionality of personal data storage devices making its name known in both the pop-culture driven Art Toy underground and the high-tech gadget world. Mimoco is renowned for their flagship collection of MIMOBOT designer USB flash drives - the first portable memory devices to successfully blend the worlds of electronics, designer toys, and pop culture.
