Ravage Transformer is Best USB Stick Ever
News

published Makes me feel young again.
Those who remember the classic first generation of Transformers will know that Ravage the Decepticon transformed into a cassette tape.
These days we no longer store our audio recording on analog tape, but rather in digital data. The Ravage of today would transform into another small-portable media form such as a USB stick. And here we have it:
At only 2 GB and $43, it’s definitely not cheap (and not shipping until September). But die-hard Transformer fans and collectors have probably already decided that they must have it.
Hopefully we'll get to see a USB Laserbeak next.

apmyhr Wow! this is an awesome idea, too bad its so expensive for 2 gig. I would be willing to pay an extra $5 - $10 for a tranformers USB, but not an extra $35...Reply
