The
movie, Pacific Rim, didn’t even come out and memorabilia is already flying out
of the shelf and with good reason, Pacific Rim is definitely one of the most anticipated
movies of this summer. But let’s talk memorabilia that you, the fan, can’t have.
The first one, was given away yesterday at WonderCon Anaheim, at the Pacific
Rim panel. If you were attending the panel, then you were in luck, since they
gave a set of five Pacific Rim Jaeger trading cards, one per card. The trading
cards, contained (see below) a picture of the specific Jaeger as well as their
battle specs, Kaiju kill count and data core.
The
second memorabilia will only be available when the movie comes out, and it is
action figures. The action figures were presented at this year Toy Fair, by
NECA and they stand roughly between 6 inches and 8 inches tall or 15.24 cm and
20.32cm tall and were created directly from the digital files used by ILM (Industrial
Light & Magic) in the making of the movie. So far there are only three action figures,
the rest are on the way.

Synopsis:
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju started rising from the sea, a
gigantic war breaks out to save Humanity and its resources from possible
annihilation. To stop these monsters and win the war, a special type of weapon
is developed, the Jaegers, massive robots that are controlled simultaneously by two
pilots whose minds are connected in a neural bridge. The Jaeger can fight one on one with the Kaiju since they are of the same size and
power, but not even they are proving to be powerful enough to stop the
relentless Kaiju from taking over the world and wipe
out Humanity. On the verge of certain defeat, the allied forces defending
mankind have but little choice but to turn to two of the most unlikely heroes
on the force, an untested trainee Mako Mori played by Rinko Kikuchi and Raleigh Becket a washed up former pilot, played by Charlie Hunnam. Both of them (Rinko and Raleigh) are teamed to
drive the legendary but apparently completely obsolete Jaeger from the past. The two unlikely
heroes became the last hope for mankind as they alone fight the Kaiju for the future of all Humanity.
Directing the movie is the brilliant director Guillermo
del Toro, who brought us both Hellboy movies and Pan's Labyrinth.Starring in
this anticipated film are Charlie
Hunnam from Sons of Anarchy, Ron
Perlman from Hellboy, Idris Elba fromLuther, Charlie Day from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Clifton Collins Jr. from Star Trek, Robert Maillet fromSherlock Holmes, Rinko
Kikuchi from The Brothers Bloom, Heather Doerksen from Battlestar Galactica and Brad William Henke from Justified. The movie is due to arrive at theaters on the 12th
of July of this summer.
