RayD80: Anatomy of an Electrified Mimobot

Beyond Toys

This may be my favorite Mimobot yet, and judging from the recent sounds my CPU is making, it’s probably a good time for me to save some files. Like the rest of the Mimoco gang, RayD80 is available in 1,2, 4 and 8GB sizes and can be paired with their proprietary tiny hoodies. Here’s his cute backstory:

Planet Blooh has seen some weird natural occurrences, what with being at the center of the universe and made of silicon and all. But none are quite as unusual as what happened earlier this week! Eyewitness reports claim that rayD8, the skeletal guard of the Underworld, was hit by lightning while underground! What’s more, the lightning bolt seems to have been charged with highly volatile and unpredictable time particles, so when rayD8 was hit, the power of the blast combined with the electrified time particles to rip his future upgraded self, rayD80, into the current time continuum.

rayD80 was, naturally, shocked at realizing he had been pulled into the present (or as he refers to it, “the past”), and immediately set about trying to gather enough memergy to take him back to the future in which he lived (or as he refers to it, “the present… and stop asking me to refer to things”). While in this time, rayD80 has taken it upon himself to guard his naive past/present self from dangers that would lead to more debilitating flash events. Friends of rayD8 claim that rayD80 has already prevented six such incidents, and has locked himself in his room with a cup of tea and his exhaustion.

Only storing your data on the unwitting time-traveler can help him generate the memergy necessary to synthesize another electro-time-bolt and bring him back to his own little spot in the chronosphere.
