The Force Trainer Is On The Way!

Posted By Mike on March 9, 2009



Brace yourself for this one! The Force Trainer, produced by Uncle Milton Industries, just made it's debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. What the heck is The Force Trainer do you ask?

From the USA Today:


"The Force Trainer (expected to be priced at $90 to $100) comes with a headset that uses brain waves to allow players to manipulate a sphere within a clear 10-inch-tall training tower, analogous to Yoda and Luke Skywalker's abilities in the Star Wars films."

Thanks to Chris and John for the heads up!




UPDATE: More info on Mattel's mind flex toy right here at IGN!




UPDATE #2: From Pete Vilmur's intro at Starwars.com:

"Last month, the Official StarWars.com Blog reported a story about the new Force Trainer toy from Uncle Milton Industries that reportedly utilizes brainwaves to levitate a ball within a tube, a la the Force. Well, that post generated so much attention on the site that we felt a follow-up story was in order to get to the bottom of this thing.

We contacted Uncle Milton Industries' Executive Vice President Frank Adler to get the low-down on this exciting new toy, which we hope to see out later this year:"

UPDATE #3: Check out the video below of the Force Trainer in action from the ABC World News Toy Fair report:
