Mondo, the collectible art boutique arm of Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, announces a spectacular set of prints for the Planet of the Apes films. In May 2011, the Alamo Drafthouse hosted “Day of the Apes,” an epic 8-hour marathon of all five Planet of the Apes films on 35mm where puny humans paid respect to their future ape masters. The poster set, created to commemorate the event, is finally unveiled to the public with each film tackled by a different artist.
The posters, created in partnership with Sideshow Collectibles and Twentieth Century Fox Consumer Products, will be sold as a set on Thursday, January 26th for $230. This will also include a bonus print “Alamo Drafthouse Wants You To Go Ape!” which is a variation of the famous Twentieth Century Fox poster created for the 1973 re-release of all five films in theaters.
The posters will be sold as a set on Thursday, January 26th for $230. Any remaining individual prints will go on sale on Friday, January 27th.

Oh man, those are so awesome, but sadly I bit too much for me, and with it being Mondo, probably damn near impossible to get in even if I wanted it.
