Street Legal Tron Lightcycles Are Here!
You can buy some weird-ass junk on eBay these days. 1980s Mariah Carey tapes, someone’s bloody mattress, or even Sharon Osbourne’s breast implants. You know, just in case you’re an avid collector of menopausal wife-of-a-rock-star celebrity plastic surgery accessories, it’s really a priceless set.
However, eBay has recently acquired some totally rad new merch. In fact, rad isn’t nearly a strong enough word. I’d go with phenomenal, or prodigious.
What is this fantastic new eBay auction for, you ask? Oh I DON’T KNOW, maybe ACTUAL WORKING BIKES FROM THE MOVIE TRON???
That’s right. 5 fully functional, exact replicas of the bikes from the 1982 sci-fi film starring Jeff Bridges are going for sale by Parker Brothers Choppers in Melbourne, Florida, for the low, low “Buy it Now” price of $35,000.
Just in time for this years release of TRON: Legacy, you’ll get a bike that, according to the manufacturers, “will make motorcycles as you now know them seem like antiques on the road.” DUH.
If you consider yourself a true TRON fan, this purchase is a necessity. What else are you gonna spend that 35 grand on? Paying off credit card debt? Putting a down payment on a home? Or being able to reenact scenes from a film where a hacker fights for his life, gladiator-style, INSIDE THE INTERNET?
I think the choice is clear.
Thanks, Gizmodo, for the info!
