Though 2010 sequel TRON: Legacy was hardly a storytelling triumph, it boasted some of the most impressive film visuals of this short century, including the immaculately designed lightcycles, and now you can buy your own… if you have a spare $40,000.
The car collecting Andrews Family is selling off a large chunk of its vehicle hoard, including a custom replica of the lightcycle, built especially for the family. It runs on a 96v direct-drive electric motor with lithium batteries, has a computer-controlled throttle, and a seat height of 28.5-inches. The bike is practically brand new, having only been ridden in the Andrews’ car museum.
The TRON lightcycle goes up for auction on 2nd May at Sotheby’s, and is expected to sell for between £25,000 and $40,000.
