...just to prove that NOBODY is immune from marketing tie-ins, there's a new toy for all those folks who watched the Matrix movies and want to be Trinity or Neo.  Yes, you can now buy your very own Matrix Special Edition Ducati.  You get to choose from the Matrix 998 or the Monster Matrix 620ie.

Do they run in "bullet time"?  Nope.  No spec changes, as far as I can see.  Just an all-black paint scheme.

I never thought I'd see Ducati releasing a special-edition bike as a move tie-in.

I think they're just trying to get rid of leftover 998s. Plus, I mean, shit. A small company like Ducati, they can use all the cash influx they can get.
