The Thing 3D Lenticular Movie Poster by Drew Struzan x Vice Press

Vice Press is teaming up with Bottleneck Gallery to release a brand new 3D Lenticular Edition of Drew Struzan’s iconic movie poster for John Carpenter’s The Thing! As Vice Press explained, “Well known to John Carpenter and cinema fans alike, Drew’s iconic imagery for The Thing comes to life in these amazing lenticular prints. We’ve worked closely with the original source images to ensure that the art is replicated to the highest quality”.

The Thing 3D Lenticular Movie Poster by Drew Struzan x Vice Press

There are two styles of 3D Lenticular Movie Posters being produced by Vice Press and Bottleneck Gallery: a thinner (1mm), flexible PET lenticular print mounted on dense paper backing. This option is more flexible, lighter, and thinner. Then there’s a thick lenticular print (4mm), akin to plexi-glass, called polystyrene. BNG calls this one Lenticular Plex for ease of differentiation. This option looks and feels like a sheet of plexiglass but with a lenticular lens. As with all lenticular prints, they are best viewed from about 4 to 6 feet away from the subject. This allows the lens to do what it does best and gives the best 3D effect.

The Thing by Drew Struzan is a 24”x36” hand numbered 3D Lenticular Print and will be available in a Movie Poster Edition and an Art Print Edition.

He’s obnoxious and aggressive, clever, curious. Ahwroo only wants some attention and affection, and draws blood when he doesn’t get it. When Gary created Ahwroo, he stood for hunger and the drive that humans can have when they want so badly something or someone unattainable.

For the figure’s first release, the Figure8 figure is available now in three colorways.  Mattel has teamed up with 88rising, a mega-popular hybrid record label / creative collective.  88rising chose to highlight the Lunar New Year and 2021: The Year of the Ox for its design to make it special for their fans.
