Planet of the Apes to expand with Taylor Nova etc?

[zeedox]

Yknow I forgot how excited I am about the Planet of the Apes line. I hope that line keeps going. I wonder what it would take to actually get Taylor and even Nova. :-)

When do we start seeing the Apes line anyhow?

I always wanted the ape dudes helmet to come off....

[mego73]

I hope so. It all depends on how the first releases sell and what Fox lets Paul (Doctor Mego) do.

Didn't think of that but now I can't think bout anything else,
it would be so cool.
Maybe even a Brent figure ???

[The Bat]

Yes...getting Taylor & Nova made for POTA....would be like getting Checkov & Sulu! It would be another Mego dream come true!!!

Not sure what your asking....

They are already and have been available for preorder for a month or two now, but we won't see them until summer.

So we are already seeing the POTA line preorder now, just won't see them until summer.

Alot of possibilites.......

A Forbidden Zone Mutant with removable mask

A Radiation sickened soldier with M16 or flame thrower

An Orange jumpsuited gorilla with a M16 or cleaver.

Now that we have a Kahn figure we can also have that circus guy who raised Ceasar.

If Trek has proven anything, if the initial figures are a success, we can look forward to an expanded figure range.

So far my pre-sales on Cornelius and Soldier Ape have been rather slow, and I pre-ordered less than any of the Trek lines. Not surprising considering that the Treks have been coming at us fairly fast recently, but not exactly reassuring.

If anyone is still interested, I have a few unaccounted for cases coming in my pre-order, so pre-order prices are still in effect for a bit.

Planet of the Apes will sell well too

The problem with Planet of the Apes these days is the Tim Burton movie was so bad it left one of those Star Trek Enterprise-esque stink bombs on the entire body of work.

I think with regard to the toys due I think was they show up all mego-ites want them. They just have to meditate a little to their childhood since the apes line was pretty much the most facinating to the childs eye as I recall. I mean the superheros were the main thing but the colors on the apes and even their packages was downright hypnotic.

For planet of the apes, Aldo, MacDonald, Virgil, Caesar with a little different sculpt. leeza (not sure of that spelling) orange jump suit, gorilla, yellow jumpsuit orangutan, green Caesar etc. mutants and maybe a closer to the "real look" generic gorilla from the first film. how about a mutant underground play set. kulp, Brent and a re-sculpt of Ricardo montalban as Armando. Dr. Milo. you name it. I'll buy it! PS. a space ship or space ship play set.

[drakghoulie]

remember the prototype gorilla on the horse with the sort of gold uniform, would love to have that!

An Orange jumpsuited gorilla

Orange jump suit gorilla

You guys really need to adjust the color on your television set(s). The slave gorillas wore red jumpsuits... Red, not orange...

[Seeker]

Wait you mean the purple gorillas wore red jumpsuits?

[zeedox]

Variations?

I always wanted Cornelius and Zera and Dr. Milo in their spacesuits.
Like I said in an earlier post, I would most look forward to Ursus where
his helmet would be removable. I always found it upsetting that his helmet
was part of his head mold...

Are there any Mego females with long hair that would serve as a Nova? What in your opinion is the closest one?
