What is "mimobot"

MIMOBOT (pronounced mee-mo-bot) flash drives are a line of collectible designer toy USB flash drives launched in 2005 by Mimoco, Inc., headed by Evan Blaustein. Designed by contemporary character artists, preloaded with original media content like music, video, animations, or games, and produced in limited runs of usually between 500 to 5,000 units, MIMOBOTs merge the aesthetics of art toys with the functionality of USB flash drives. Their memory capacities range from 2GB to 64GB. The MIMOBOT line can be found at stores like the MoMA, Kidrobot, Giant Robot, Colette, and other lifestyle institutions worldwide.

MIMOBOT characters have been produced in 3 categories: original MIMOBOT characters, artist series collaborations, and licensing partnerships.

As of June 2016, the MIMOBOT range is distributed exclusively in the UK by It World Services Ltd.
