Finn from Adventure Time is way more than just a little kid with a dog, a sword, and a hat, and Finn MIMOBOT is way more than another flash drive.

Oh yeah, and when you whip Finn MIMOBOT out, everyone will know that you are King Awesome.

Adventure Time’s Jake is not your average dog- he’s, well… stretchy. as in flexible. And he can talk, too. But he’s still loyal and loving and Jake MIMOBOT can be just as good a friend and just as flexible. Store a small file on Jake MIMOBOT. Go on, store a big file… whatever you want! He can hold up to 64GBs of your stuff, and he won’t complain. Jake MIMOBOT is there in a pinch and will proclaim to your friends and coworkers that yes, you love Adventure Time, and no, you will not let them down.

Also “Adventure Time” fans keep an eye out for the upcoming BMO BatteryBot that’s available for pre-order now, here. Who knows maybe this Summer we will be giving away one of these beauties as well, so stay tuned!

Sam J. Jones reflects on “Flash Gordon”, “Ted” and plans for “Ted 2”

Sam J. Jones is best known for the lead role in the 1980 cult classic “Flash Gordon”. Sam recently appeared in the the Seth MacFarlane directed live-action film “Ted”, as himself and stole the show. Sam took out some time to chat with Media Mikes about his work on “Flash Gordon”, “Ted”, plans for “Ted 2 and his work in the security business.

Mike Gencarelli: Can you reflect on the fandom that surrounds “Flash Gordon” over 30 years since its release?
Sam J. Jones: It has been wonderful and is such a blessing. We filmed it in 1979, so that is 34 years ago and was released in Christmas of 1980. We are talking about three different generations here. It is amazing. It has had a good run and it has opened a lot of doors for me. I have traveled all over the world. It has even continued in the film “Ted”.

MG: Queen’s score in the film is so iconic, how do you feel that it works in the film?
SJ: It really complemented the film well. Queen was huge, obviously but it also opened up doors for them as well at the time. Combine their amazing soundtrack with the great visuals and you have a winner. All that creativity came together and produced this unforgettable visual experience.

MG: How often are you approached with people screaming “FLASH!! AAA-AAAHHH!!” and how do you respond?
SJ: Well, I get real close to them…then I head butt them [laughs]. No, it is fun it really is. Sometimes people walk by me on the street and don’t even say anything just scream and continue walking. They don’t even wait for a reaction. That sort of thing happens a lot.

MG: I wanted to ask about about you being originally signed up for seven “Gordon” sequels. Is that true?
SJ: I think it was a couple sequels at the time, yeah! Like anything else they decided not to pursue it. It has been optioned a couple of different times over the years with various development deals for a sequel, so hopefully that will happen soon. I would love to be apart of it again.

MG: Also can you talk about how your voice being dubbed over in the film?
SJ: We filmed the entire project in London, England and one week in Scotland. After filming you always have to go back and do ADR to fix the vocals. So I didn’t head back, I was working on other projects at the time. So they went ahead and got another actor to try and match my voice. It is what it is. I am sure next time I would rather find a way to get back there and do it myself.

MG: Tell us about how your role in “Ted” came about?
SJ: It is pretty simple, Seth MacFarlane called me and said that when he was eight years old he saw “Flash Gordon” and it changed his life. He knew then that he wanted to be a creative guy in the business and that was his inspiration. So he called and said he had this script called “Ted” and if I would be interested and I said “Of course”. At first, he wanted me to play myself but it turned out to be a parody of myself.

MG: What was it like getting back into those tights again after all those years?
SJ: It was fun. It was great working with the cast with Mark Walhberg, Mila Kunis and Patrick Warburton. Actually Patrick and I used to be in acting classes together, so it was good to see him again. It was Seth’s first time directing live-action and he did a fantastic job. He was always very prepared each day.

MG: Going from film business to security business, tell us about your current work?
SJ: It has been natural transition for me. I was a marine before I was an actor, so the background was there before I was in the movie business. So I got married and started having our five children and things slowed down a bit since there is a lot of downtime in the film business. So I wanted to fill that void, so I talked to my wife and decided to do that I was already trained in. I went and took some additional specialized training, actually the same as the Secret Service and the State Department. I started working the Los Angeles area, then I worked in Katrina and excelled in security operations. From there I got an invitation to move to San Diego to help run the Cross-Border Security Operations into Mexico. So that is what I have been doing for the past eight years now. I love it because when a film project comes up, I am able to drop everything and do the film. So it works out.

MG: “Ted 2” is planned for release Passover 2015, any word of a return for you?
SJ: Yeah, of course. Seth already asked me to do it. He mentioned that they will be filming in the Spring of 2014. So I can’t wait for that!

The eighth series in the Star Wars MIMOBOT collection includes Jabba the Hutt, Slave Leia, Jedi Luke, Admiral Ackbar, and Biker Scout – a joint 2012 San Diego Comic-Con and Star Wars Celebration VI exclusive – all sporting classic stylized MIMOBOT designs.

Media Mikes would like to giveaway one of each of these amazing “Star Wars” Series 8 Collection MIMOBOT® USB Flash Drives. If you would like to win one of these great prizes, please leave us a comment below or send us an email and let us know your favorite character from “Star Wars” universe.

Jabba the Hutt MIMOBOT has grown fat and powerful on your data. This gangster from a galaxy far, far away doesn’t forgive debts easily. Satiate the mighty and powerful Jabba the Hutt MIMOBOT’s appetite by storing up to 64GBs of your pics, documents, and favorite Max Rebo Band jams on him!

From her first appearance chained to Jabba’s throne in Return of the Jedi, Slave Leia took her fate into her own hands and helped change the course of the galaxy, and did it all while looking good. She was the perfect balance of form and function, just like your Slave Leia MIMOBOT. With her sexy design and up to 64GBs of capacity, she’s the perfect flash drive for storing and transporting all your digital data.

When last we saw Luke Skywalker at the end of The Empire Strikes Back, he was wearing comfy, loose fitting robes, and testing out his new mechanical hand. The Luke we encounter in Return of the Jedi is dressed all in black and means business. This is confident Luke. Powerful Luke. Jedi Luke. And Jedi Luke MIMOBOT is no different. Secure in his Jedi powers, he’s also confident that no one, not Jabba, Vader, nor the Emperor himself can sway him to the dark side and endanger your most valued digital data. This Jedi Knight may be dressed in black, but he’s all light.

One of Star Wars fans’ favorite characters, Admiral Ackbar didn’t need much screen time to make an impression. He hates the Empire and he hates being surprised by operational shield generators! Ackbar is a Mon Calamari, a squid-like species equally at home on land, in the water, and in space. Admiral Ackbar MIMOBOT is equally at home on your desk, in your pocket, or plugged into your computer. Command the fleet of all your most important data and files with your Admiral Ackbar MIMOBOT. With a flash drive design this cool, you can’t resist, can you? You might even say, it’s a trap…!

Native Ewoks scatter in the underbrush when Biker Scouts zip by on their speeder bikes, but just wait until some ‘rebel scum’ show up to take down that shield generator. That’s when we see exactly what Biker Scouts are made of. Appearing on Return of the Jedi’s forest moon of Endor, Biker Scout MIMOBOT will make his appearance as a joint San Diego Comic-Con and Star Wars Celebration VI exclusive. With a numbered release of only 1,000 units and a memory capacity of up to 64GBs, the limited edition Biker Scout MIMOBOT is the perfect designer USB flash drive for the die-hard Star Wars fan with data on the go.

Available in 8GB to 64GB capacities, the Star Wars MIMOBOT Series 8 collection lets you store and transport all your digital music, pics, documents, and more. And with exclusive preloaded digital extras like Mimory™ & mimoDesk™ suites of 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 your computer, you get a whole lot of function with a whole lot of form.

The Star Wars MIMOBOT Series 8 USB flash drive collection is now available at www.mimoco.com, and in select retail shops worldwide. The joint San Diego Comic-Con and Star Wars Celebration VI exclusive, Biker Scout MIMOBOT, will first be available at Comic-Con International in San Diego, CA on July 11-15 and at Star Wars Celebration VI in Orlando, FL on August 23-26.
