As the sales of Jaeger and Kaiju toys and t-shirts out there demonstrate, fans still harbor a lot of love for Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim. One group of fans who just wrote a massive love letter to the giant monster fight flick are the folks at L.A. video game studio Robotoki. Working with Tom Spina Designs, they’ve created a nine-hundred-pound, twelve-foot-long coffee table that’s set atop a massive Jaeger arm. And they were kind enough to share with us the photos and video below (with its adorable 8-bit version of the Pacific Rim theme music), in which they unpack and assemble this bad boy in their offices… It’s enough to make me wish a Jaeger would fall out of the sky and land in back of my house so I could start making my own Pacific Rim furniture. But if that happened, then the Kaiju would wipe out mankind, and that ain’t happening. Not on my watch.
This one is way more practical: http://www.elstern.com/Eric_L._Stern/Recent_Work/Pages/conference_table.html
its got plenty of leg room, but the pics dont really do its size justice. its like 3 big tables side by side 😀
All I can think of is how much it would hurt to smash my shins on the end with the wrist, with all those wires. But worth the pain, I’d just wear shin guards.
Sooo crazy, I love the attention to detail!
Nice table. I would like to see the making of.
