Friends With You Mimobots by Josh Rubin

The second crop of Friends With You Mimobots drops today and the collaboration between the character-themed thumb drive maker and the rainbow-splashed art collective couldn't be a better match. Adding three Malfis (smiling, the original, and super) as well as Mr. TTT (pictured above from L-R and in detail after the jump), the diminutive guys will store either 1GB, 2GB and 4GB your data. And, as with all editions in the Mimobot artist series, each comes preloaded with soundbytes, icons/avatars and wallpapers to complete the experience.

Limited to an edition of 2,000 each, the USB 2.0 devices start at $40 and work with both Macs and PCs. Get one (or a little family) of your own from Mimoco.
