Dane Electronics offers The Avengers collectible figure/sliding USB drive set of four – Hulk, Thor, Captain America and Iron Man. Each drive has a five year warranty and stands up well with enough base for stability. The bottom base has a knob to slide the USB drive out. The USB has an 8GB storage capacity.
The figure sections are rather artistic and roughly the same size. The Hulk still looks the part, even with a reduced size. Inside the bottom center of each package there is a serial number for authenticity, so collectors should hang onto it.
The display aspect of the USB drives works well- letting you show them off rather than letting the USB drive sit in a drawer or organizer, but, depending on your computer’s design, the sideways oriented USB ports can create an obvious disadvantage. The large figure size does not allow for multiple plug-ins to the computer, but the light weight (approximately 1.6 ounces) make them great for transport and display. It would have be great to have an Avengers game or other interactive experience preloaded on the drive(s) …thanks for the suggestion Jodi.
