Austin,
TX- Wednesday, July 1, 2015- Mondo is super excited to offer a sneak
peek at its offerings for San Diego Comic-Con 2015, featuring the best
in artist-driven collectibles for characters, films and comics. This
year, more than ever, Mondo is showing off a wide variety of products
from an amazing team of designers and world-class artists. Below is a
small sampling of the posters, vinyl and collectible figures that will
be on hand at their booth #835.
Artwork and photos of the products featured below can be downloaded here.
POSTERS
Here's a first look at the Ant-Man screen
print from artist Kevin Tong. "In designing the poster, I wanted to
show Ant-Man's scale, the intensity of his transformation, and really
just trying to make a poster as fun and dynamic as the movie," said
Tong.
The
poster is printed on holofoil, a unique reflective surface, adding a
dynamic element to the print. The regular version of the poster will be
on sale at a future date via Mondo's official site. Mondo will be
releasing a diverse selection of posters throughout the convention,
including the debut of an awesome new license.

COLLECTIBLE FIGURES
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1/6 Scale Figures
Just
last year Mondo announced that they were making a big step into the
world of high-end collectible figures. At this year's Comic-Con Mondo
continues that promise to deliver jaw-dropping figures with a first look
at its line of 1/6 scale Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Leonardo is the first in a series of 1/6 scale Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
figures, inspired by the original Eastman & Laird comic book from
the 1980s. Standing approximately 11 inches in height, and featuring 25+
points of articulation, Leonardo includes interchangeable hands,
multiple accessories, and a choice of the classic red mask from the
comics, or the famous blue mask from the cartoon series! All four
turtles will be on display at Mondo's booth. (Price TBD)
First Hellboy Statue
In
1991, comic artist & writer Mike Mignola did a black & white
illustration at a comic convention of a demon character that bore the
name "Hellboy" on his belt. This was the genesis of the filed-horned
fighter of the supernatural known and loved today. Mondo is excited to
bring the original concept to life with a 12" polystone statue
showcasing all the strange and fun details of the original drawing. In
addition to all the sculpted details, original Hellboycolorist Dave
Stewart was enlisted to design the color scheme for the piece. Now is a
Hell of a time to bring this piece of comic history home! First Hellboy
is currently available for pre-order at MondoTees.com ($200)
Come by the booth to see more collectibles including an early preview of a Godzilla sculpture based on Phantom City Creative's poster design - it's truly a one-of-a-kind piece.
VINYL
Aliens - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
The Academy Award-nominated score for Aliens
is an appropriate musical companion to this wildly successful sequel.
Much like the film, the soundtrack is a departure from the original, but
equally beloved. Composer James Horner took the reigns from Jerry
Goldsmith and made something his own: blending the suspense and horror
that the franchise is known for, with an element of fun that is unique
to this entry.
This
deluxe edition soundtrack features over a dozen cues that have never
before been released on vinyl, including 5 bonus tracks. Commenting on
the design, artist Killian Eng said, "I wanted the alien to play a big
role but at the same time incorporate its shape into the materials of
the space station, almost like it becomes the station itself, keeping
the marines in a steady merciless grip."
Composed & Conducted by James Horner

Superman: The Animated Series - Die-Cut Single
Mondo is thrilled to announce the Superman: The Animated Series
Die-Cut single featuring the character's iconic emblem cut in the shape
of the Man of Steel's "S" in classic red vinyl or Kryptonite green
vinyl. Commenting on the artwork, Justin Erickson of Phantom City
Creative said, "I wanted to make this a companion piece to my packaging
design for Batman: The Animated Series. While
Batman is darker and more serious, Superman needed to be bright,
colorful and energetic to reflect the tonal differences between the
two."
The single features the theme music of the inimitable Shirley Walker, whose leadership on this and Batman: The Animated Series
set the standard for the music of the DC Animated universe for decades
to come. This release is an essential companion piece to last year's Batman: The Animated Series Die-Cut Single.
