Free Mimobot of the Week: Darth Maul!

June 20, 2009 by Dr. Macenstein
Filed under: Awesomeness, Free Stuff, contests 

[Thank you, we have our winner! Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader Quintin!]

We’ve once again teamed up with our good friends over at Mimoco to bring you a feature we know everyone loves - The Free MIMOBOT of the week contest! In celebration of the release of Mimoco’s Series 4 Star Wars Mimobots, each week we’ll be offering you a chance to win a different 2 GB MIMOBOT from the series.


Remember how excited you were when you saw Darth Maul in the trailer?

This week we are giving away a super cool Darth Maul Mimobot. Yes, Darth Maul, pretty much the only redeemable thing we can take away from Episode One: The Phantom Menace. Remember how you almost crapped your pants when you saw Darth Maul’s double-bladed lightsaber? Well, you’re friends will definitely need a change of underwear when they see the Darth Maul mimobot’s butt light up red as you transfer files!

To Enter: OK, there’s no denying The Phantom Menace didn’t exactly live up to MY expectations (but then as a child of the 80’s, how could it?). So this week to enter, simply tell us what is the one movie in your life you have MOST looked forward to? It may or may not have lived up to your expectations, but thanks to clever trailer editing, everyone’s gotten excited about seeing a movie at some point or another. Winner will be picked randomly. Contest ends seven days from now and is open to all readers world-wide. Good luck!

    2. Spider-Man. Back when rumors were that Cameron would direct and DiCaprio would be Spider-Man. Tobey McGuire didn’t exist back then.

  2. Alex Jordan on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 12:21 am

    3. Believe it or not I really looked forward to Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. I was 8 and a half years old when it came out, and I loved it.

  3. lucion on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 12:21 am

    4. I honestly think “The Phantom Menace” was the movie I was most excited about seeing.

    Or maybe “My Name Is Bruce.”

  4. Brandon on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 12:29 am

    5. heck yes to Lucion, amazing movie. i was really excited to see the first power rangers movie when i was a kid. i thought it would be the best thing ever. and it has totally withstood the stand of time ;)

  5. Carlo on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 12:52 am

    6. As another child of the 80’s, would you believe the animated Transformers movie? It was the only time I thought Rodimus was cool

  6. Dave on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 12:55 am

    7. Serenity. And it lived up to the expectations.

  7. XYber Druid on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 1:10 am

    8. Masters of the Universe I was a HARD CORE heman fan as a kid i had every single figure and vehicle and both castles i even had the horde even though they were She-ra’s enimies
    and read every bit of info on the movie

    when i finally saw it i remember thinking parts of it were boring and other parts scared me

    17. The Matrix: Revolutions. With the “to be continued” at the end of Reloaded, how couldn’t I’ve been eager?

  17. Angel E. V. on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 3:03 am

    18. It’s got to be The Last Star Fighter

  18. Soli on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 3:14 am

  19. Nils on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 3:37 am

    20. The Matrix.
    All those “What is the Matrix?” questions and little games on the web, and you weren’t really sure, what this film would be about.
    Really enjoyed the film and even the two sequels. Maybe one of the first movies with viral marketing like playing the game, watching Animatrix and all those hidden things on their website. “steak”, do I need to say more?

  20. David on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 3:53 am

    21. Probably Transformers (the first one…)

  21. Kevin on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 4:03 am

    27. Well, the new superman… But only for the brief time it was supposed to be directed by Tim Burton and starring Nicolas Cage…
    That one was supposed to be a pearl!!!

  27. Jon on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 6:25 am

    28. That movie with DeNiro and Pacino that came out last year…Righteous Kill. This small early cut trailer had NIN’s Heresy playing over it…It looked like a cheesy 80s movie – quite literally amazing. Of course we all know the results of that one.

  28. Pyzio on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 6:36 am

    29. Lord Of The Rings – The Fellowship of the ring. I loved the book, so I was anxious to see what will be made of it

  29. Stephen Brannen on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 7:11 am

    30. I’m going to have to say Phantom Menace. I was a Sophomore in high school when it came out. I bought tickets to both the midnight showing and they first showing in the morning the next day (which meant that I skipped a day of school).

    Man was I disappointed.

  30. Double U on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 7:23 am

    31. Underworld

  31. MIke Major on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 7:29 am

    32. Star Wars: Episodes 1,2, & 3. I remember waiting in line for Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Waiting in line with my son was something that I will always remember.

  32. pawel_z_wrocka on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 7:43 am

    33. “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring”.

  33. Brad Caplan on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:12 am

    34. Flash Gordon

  34. Arturo Herrera Monterroso on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:19 am

    35. X-Men Origins: Wolverine, ’cause i was really lookink forward to seeing deadpool ’cause he is awesome, but after i saw it I was so dissapointed on how they portrayed him

  35. ArKay on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:31 am

    36. The Empire Strikes Back.
    I still recall grabbing a bus to get to the theater on opening night (being a Sophmore in High School) to get to a _standing room only_ showing a few towns away. It was amazing.

    Only to be betrayed by fuzzy teddy bears a few years later (sigh).

  36. Manuel on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:33 am

    37. Flubber :-) Really

  37. Aurélien Lewin on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:36 am

    38. The Matrix. I know, it sounds like a fanboy. I’m.

  38. Ste7en on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:41 am

    39. Back to the Future sequels. I didn’t know they existed until my dad pointed them out and we travelled to Blockbuster…

  39. Scratic on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:53 am

    40. I spent a huge chunk of my life drinking alcoholicly and using any drug I could get my hands on…. What was the question again? Ah, I remember. I prefer nachos with ground beef to those made with chicken.

  40. John on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:58 am

    41. Probably Transformers (the recent live-action one).

  41. nexfraxinus on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:59 am

    42. American McGee’s Alice – several Movie Pages said there would be a movie based on the computer game within 2009 starring Sarah Michelle Gellar as Alice .. didn’t come out so far -.-

  42. Fred on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 9:15 am

    43. Star Wars Episode I – the first star wars I could watch when it was originally released.

  43. Ed on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 9:18 am

    44. You said it, The Phantom Menace. I must have watched the trailer 200+ times before seeing the actual movie. It was also the first movie I watched on the big screen despite having a bootleg on the hard drive (bootleg available before the release – very hard wait).

    #2 was Attack of the Clones. Watched that trailer 100+ times also.

  44. Matt Dewey on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 9:26 am

    45. It’s a toss up really – I remember how much I looked forward to seeing Return of the Jedi and at the time, I couldn’t get enough of the Ewoks. Then I remember standing in line and waiting to see Tim Burton’s Batman for hours the weekend it came out and all the talk of the history of the character, wearing the shirts, and repeating every line from the trailers over and over again. Great times.

  45. betsunin on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 9:48 am

    46. Lord Of the Rings….

    May the luck be with you.

  46. Phillip on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 9:50 am

    50. Star Wars Phantom Menace or The Watchmen

  50. Chris Leither on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 10:54 am

    51. The new Star Trek movie. And then it sadly turned out to be total crap… and no real Trek at all… Stupid shit…

  51. bc on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 11:15 am

    52. Star Wars Return of the Jedi.
    a bunch of us lined up a couple hours for the matinee premiere showing. but what we didn’t count on was that the theatre would be full of mostly little kids (it was the matinee, after all) screaming and cheering loudly EVERY time one of the main characters came on screen – we couldn’t hear any of the dialog during the movie.

  52. sebastian on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 11:51 am

    53. Superman Returns. So-so..

  53. Ajan on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 11:56 am

    57. I would have to say Lord of the Rings. After seeing a trailer and having to wait over a year to see it.

    63. Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy! So excited when that came out. It also didn’t turn out to be a complete disappointment.

  63. Thomas Ross on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 2:04 pm

    64. Probably it is Lord of the Rings; Fellowship of the Ring. Read the books when younger, reread when older. This was such an epic tale and popular series I wanted it to be good so much. So many people got into the stories after seeing the first movie too. I think it was one of the best adaptations that could have been done. Still waiting for the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov to be done on the big screen.

  64. daniel holmes on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 2:22 pm

    65. Transformers!!!

  70. Matt Davis on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 4:09 pm

    71. the simpsons movie hahahaha

  71. Sammichman on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 4:10 pm

    72. Watchmen. The comic was just so good. But then Snyder grabbed it and mutilated it. The new ending sucks even MORE than the one in the comic, but there were still parts than shined through, like Rorschach :3

  72. darrell on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 5:08 pm

    73. The Darjeeling Limited (2007)

    i’m a wes anderson fan and the trailers really inspired me. the movie actually prompted me to do some soul searching on my own. i still love the movie, and i’ll try to watch it once a year or so.

  80. JT on Sat, 20th Jun 2009 8:13 pm

    81. I must say Star Wars Ep. 1. I was a freshman in college and 20ish of us took turns sitting in line for a week during finals so we could all do our tests and final projects. We got all over the news and radio and got a ton of free shit as well. The theater even let us in 20 minutes early to pick our seats ahead of time.

    Myself and 2 others who where in adv. freshman 3d animation bought an extra ticket and took our prof. on opening night, who’s class we skipped all week besides turing in our projects, he told us we were guaranteed C’s if we didn’t turn in a final animation project :P Good thing we had done A+ work ahead of time and passed with flying colors :P

    106. It’s hard to say because there were the Spiderman movies, then there was Batman Begins, then Transformers, then Dark Knight.

    I guess now it will be Transformers 2 because the first one was so good (compared to how I thought it was going to be) that I want to see what they do with the second one.

    Incidentally Spiderman got worse as it progressed completely screwing over really cool characters but Batman has continuously got better which is the complete reverse of those horrible horrible Joel Schmuckmaker Batman movies.

    There’s only one series that has progressively got worse with each new episode and that’s been the new Knight Rider series. They tried to blame the actors for that but frankly they really really need to look at the writers for the blame.

  106. Alejandro on Sun, 21st Jun 2009 9:37 pm

    107. As a guy that grew up in the 80’s, the movie I’m MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO: “Thundercats” Hell yeah!… or should I say Hooooooooooooooo! Currently in development: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1047015/

    127. mine was Terminator 3:Rise of the Machines
    which did not live up to my expectations at all and was just such an awful movie. makes me cringe each time i think about it.

    yet in anticipation for its release, i was dreaming of something epic.

    128. I just thought of another one.

    Voltron.

    Man I want to see how they do that if the rumours are true.

    I loved Voltron.

  129. Tony Bricko on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 10:51 am

    130. Star Wars Episode One… all my friends and I skipped school to see it… the news crews were out interviewing people n stuff….

    Man, what a disappointment.

  130. Josh Elder on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 12:16 pm

    131. Dude where’s my car? haha, just kidding.

    The Matrix

  131. Jocelyn on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 3:22 pm

    132. Star Trek. I have never been so excited for a movie in my life.

  132. Jon on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 3:24 pm

    133. Phantom Menace. 16 years of waiting between movies. And we all know where that went.

  133. Kal on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 3:31 pm

    134. Ghostbusters 2 (didn’t live up to expectations though).

  134. Julie Foster on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 5:20 pm

    135. I ALWAYS look forward to ANY of the Harry Potter movies…can’t wait for July when the next one comes out! Woo hoo!

  135. Gil Guemes on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 6:32 pm

    136. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull did not live up to expectations… I am still trying to unwatch it South Park style!

  136. Lars on Tue, 23rd Jun 2009 9:44 pm

    137. the Dark Knight

  137. John Daugherty on Wed, 24th Jun 2009 12:02 pm

    138. The first Batman….Only movie I ever slept at the theater for!

  138. Quintin Burlingame on Wed, 24th Jun 2009 7:39 pm

    139. I AM LEGEND, the book was AmAzInG, and they RUINED the ending, WHY WERE THEY ZOMBIES, THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE VAMPIRES!!!!!!!

  139. Dave on Wed, 24th Jun 2009 10:21 pm

    140. Rambo, the last one they came out with, I still havent seen it, I think the trailer sums it up, I dont want to ruin it, the song in the trailer was sweet too

  140. Chris OConnor on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 1:11 am

    141. Was probably when they re-released STAR WARS to the cinema – 1992 ? I’d seen it on the big screen as a kid (was only 5) – and to see it “again” for the “first time” was amazing.

    So many MORE things I got out of – I remember chuckling at hearing R2-D2’s noises, and the sound of the Star Destroyer – amazing on the BIG screen – bigger & better than ever !

  141. G Davis on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 8:28 am

    142. The Matrix – I knew there was something gold in them that hills… and it delivered beyond the trailer, cleverly keeping all the great surprises out of the trailer. It was The One.

  142. The Waterman on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 8:58 am

    143. Watchmen. I’m a huge fan of the graphic novel, and the trailers promised something pretty damn close. The movie itself didn’t fall to short either which was nice.

  143. Neil on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 9:27 am

    144. As I was a bit too young to be bitter about ewoks, I have to say Return of the Jedi.

  144. Locoweed on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 12:29 pm

    145. Back to the Future 2.

    I was 5 when it first came out and I watched it over and over and over and I would always see the “To be continued!” at the end and long for a continuation of the adventures of Marty and Doc Brown.

    And they FINALLY released the sequel, years later. And it was Awesome.

    –Er, to clarify, I was 5 when the ORIGINAL Back to the Future came out.

  145. Ellsworth on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 12:50 pm

    146. I’m going to have to say Dick Tracy. As a kid, the idea of having a cool watch-phone was epic.

  146. Jas N Smith on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 1:46 pm

    147. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls…and no, it did not live up to my expectations.

  147. Zack N on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 3:38 pm

    148. Seed of Chucky

  148. svt on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 7:21 pm

    149. Kill Bill. Always been a Tarantino fan, Kill Bill was the longest wait between his movies.

  149. keith j on Thu, 25th Jun 2009 9:17 pm

    150. the matrix.
    come on, they teased the hell out of us with those, um, teasers.

  150. DSC on Fri, 26th Jun 2009 7:10 am

    151. I think the one that got me most excited must be 300. The first time I heard of it I wasn’t that interested. Saw a one sheet for it and thought, hey, doesn’t seem that bad. But when I saw the first trailer (can’t remember if it was the teaser but I think not) I thought WOWBAZAMWOW!!!! I just HAD to see it!
    A very close second is The Matrix. When the first trailers came out and no-one knew what the heck the Matrix was or anything I just had to see it. My sensations when I left the theatre were that THIS was how all films should make me feel when they ended.

    That’s all. :)

    152. Back To The Future (obviously parts 2 and 3)

  152. Chad Whitaker on Fri, 26th Jun 2009 11:11 am

    153. After watching the original trilogy every day after school, starting when I was 6, and being able to recite the words verbatim, the movie I looked most forward to was Episode I – The Phantom Menace, and luckily it came out when I was young enough to not think it was terrible. but watching it now, you just have to wonder why Lucas replaced the coolest Sith apprentice EVER with Count Dooku.

  153. JorgeLuisBorges on Sat, 27th Jun 2009 8:34 am

    154. Iron Man. Must’ve watched the trailer a dozen times.

  154. Nomis on Sat, 27th Jun 2009 2:04 pm

    155. Delicatessen, 1991, watch it again and again ;)

  155. Travis Boenker on Sat, 27th Jun 2009 3:03 pm

    156. Transformers: revenge of the fallen. Ad it completely lived up to expectations. big mother effing robots fighting and Megan fox. What’s better than that
