Pacific Rim director Guillermo Del Toro has released a new featurette titled “Destroy All Kaiju”. In this video, he shares concept art and the development process in creating the giant monsters, or  Kaiju in the film. Below is a brief synopsis:

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.
