Odd City Entertainment Kicks Off PACIFIC RIM Posters Series

From Badass Digest

The release of Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim is just weeks away at this point (July 12th, to be exact), which means that we're entering the last stages of Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures' promotional push. And one of the coolest parts of that push is undoubtedly the news that Austin's recently-established Odd City Entertainment has picked up the license to del Toro's Kaiju vs. giant robot extravaganza, and will be releasing an entire series of posters based on the film.

Let's see what their press release has to say about this:
 Odd City Entertainment is excited to announce, in partnership with Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures, a series of limited edition screen prints from varying talented artists (Gabz, Todd Slater, NE, Gordon Jones and Graham Erwin) all inspired by Oscar® nominated director Guillermo del Toro’s EPIC new movie, Pacific Rim. When looking for artists to approach this soon to be classic sci-fi flick, Odd City Founder, Roman Morales, quickly zeroed in on the perfect lot that could bring the director’s vision to screen printed glory.
The first print in the series comes to us from an artist known as Gabz, and will come in three varieties: a regular edition, a variant edition and a metallic edition (if you're not well-versed in the world of screenprinted movie posters: yes, this means the image itself is printed on a 24x36" piece of metal). Let's take a look at those three versions below:
