PHOTOS: Tron Legacy bike snapped

Makes a Harley Davidson look like an antique

27 January 2010 11:56 GMT / By Stuart Miles

Hot on the heels of the trailer, which debuted last month, Pocket-lint managed to snap a gallery of shots of a life-size version of one of the bikes to be featured in the movie Tron Legacy.

Toymaker Spin Master, who've signed the licensing rights to the new Tron Legacy film due out on the 26 December 2010, has said they won't be putting it on the market for sale unfortunately. However, fans of the movie will be able to opt for a much smaller version in the autumn when it releases its new toy range of characters and vehicles.

Imagine driving that down the M1 or I95. Damn.

This full sized bike has been around since at least last summer, where it appeared at Fan Expo 2009...

-- this is a video I created that's featured on Walt Disney Pictures TRON LEGACY facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/Tron?ref=ts (as well as WDP Twitter) -- on Ain't It Cool News: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/41891 -- and many other movie related websites. The video depicts the reproduction of Flynn's Arcade that debuted during Comic-Con in San Diego on 7/23/09. I was at the Grand Opening event that night. Definitely a historic, pop culture event...!
