New PACIFIC RIM Featurette - "Oversized Robot Set"

This new Pacific Rim featurette is titled "Oversized Robot Set," and it includes a good amount of more really cool footage! It also features Guillermo del Toro discussing the giant robot head that he had built for the film, and admits that it was a torture device that his actors were forced to play in. It actually looks kind of fun, but I can see how going though it all day long could take a toll on a person. It ranks really high on the awesome factor though!

The movie drops into theaters on July 12th, to catch up on all of our Pacific Rim news, click here. 

When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes — a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee — who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
