[OT] SoCal Steve sent me this. The dumbest Tron item ever! or the coolest? Steve shot me this in an email with a tag that simply said,
"I hope they don't have these in the film"
I DIED laughing.

LMAO I just had an image in my head of two kids riding down the street and a light trail behind the razor scooter, damn...I bet that's what the commercial will be.
Although the light trail would only be as big as the back wheel, so all it would do is trip the other kid and he would just face plant on the street.

I... I kind of want one.
Except I had a Razor when I was younger and the wheel was always messed up, making it hard to use... so maybe not. Lol

Unfortunately we in the non-digital realm don't have Light Cycles ride around on. I owned a non-motorized scooter as a youth about 30 years ago. I probably would have wanted one of these, I suppose it's a different time and era and it's uncool to own a scooter.

Not "uncool," when I was in my undergrad, all the "cool kids" had scooters, I view it as a hipster thing. MOTORIZED SCOOTERS ARE THE $H!T.
I just want to see the kid in the neighborhood riding one of these making vroom noises.
But if they did a big wheel, or a pedal car for Tron or Tron legacy, I would without question buy one for collection sake.
But you are not "uncool" for thinking this is cool. It's just one of those random things to me like Tron Legacy Toilet paper that make me laugh.

If someone uses a still camera, as in I won't have to do matchmoving, I would gladly do the light trails. And someone has to get a kid or better yet THEIR kid to do a face plant.
and not to mention buy two of the scooters.

I would want one so bad if it weren't for the fact I always had trouble using them. It might be the fact that I got bored after awhile having to put so much effort into scooting.
It is still tempting though. I'd be the coolest crew person in the pits at track days if nothing else!

Especially if you could get it to emit light trails and trip people.

No, it's not, this is even worse (more because of the price rather than what it is).

WHOA!!!
This is a cool jacket, imo. But this has absolutely NOTHING to do with TRON! What the hell is going on with this? The price is so incredibly stupid that I can't even think of a single person on this forum that would buy this.
If I had the money, yeah I would, it's a cool jacket. But I don't see how this jacket is related to tron.

dumb scooter, and even dumber clothes. The post about the light trail and the face plant is priceless though. Thanks Shaved, for a good laugh.
