Titans of Film: IRON GIANT & KING KONG From MONDO!
Just when you thought it couldn’t get cooler than Lord of the Rings, tomorrow, Mondo drops prints featuring two of the biggest stars of films - a giant robot and a giant ape respectively, with prints for The Iron Giant and King Kong!
For me, the Iron Giant prints are what really have me excited, so I’ll feature those first.
First, we have the amazing poster from Laurent Durieux. A 21"x36" screen print limited to a run of 425, that will be going for $60, and will be a drop that I will be working very hard to get!
Next, following in the footsteps of their very cool articulated Spider Gremlin from last year, Mondo has combined with artist Kevin Tong to release an articulated figure of Iron Giant himself!
Our favorite robot comes packaged with Hogarth, bolt and “S” logo. Iron Giant stands at 31 3/8" tall from head-to-toe and 14 7/8" shoulder-to-shoulder, and will run $75. No mention of an edition size here.
Last, but far from least, we have the two King Kong prints, also by Laurent Durieux.
Print #1 is a 24"x36" screen print limited to a run of 375 for $60.
Then you have Print #2 (which, honestly made me chuckle upon seeing it), also 24"x36", limited to a run of 175 for $120.
Both prints go on sale some time on Friday, July 6th. As always, stay tuned to Mondo’s Twitter for the official drop time!
