Funko Competes with Mimoco for Star Wars Flash Drive Market

The time has come to dethrone Mimoco as the de facto manufacturer of Star Wars flash drive figurines. Funko is ready to jump into the arena as a formidable contender with 2GB flash drives based on four iconic Star Wars characters: Yoda, Darth Yader, Stormtrooper and Boba Fett. Their USB connector is revealed by pulling out their head which doubles as a cap.

In comparison, Funko has paid more attention on the details and its drives are more faithful to the original characters while Mimoco designed Mimobots, whose shapes are almost identical with each other, to work better as a flash drive than the Funko's and there's also pre-loaded content and more capacity choices. Funko will ship all four models in October at a price of $24.99 apiece.
