There’s no denying that The Hunger Games are a HUGE hit. What most people thought was just a ripoff of Battle Royale, has turned into a phenomenon and blockbuster sucess. The final book for the Suzanne Collins trilogy has been split up into two movies, with the first part to Mockingjay coming out this Fall.
Today, we have photos from the District Heroes Collection. Focusing on each District in Panem, we get looks at each unique style from the different locations. I’d use the term “heroes” loosely as most of the more distant Districts look like they stepped outta Mogatu’s ‘Derelict’ Campaign.
