Custom of the Week - 8/8/2017 - The Universe's Greatest Space Apes!

[EMCE Hammer]

This week the spotlight falls on Confessional's spacey take on the Astro Apes, originally beloved knockoffs of their real deal Mego cousins. There is a lot of ingenuity and neat touches on display here blending vintage and custom pieces - enjoy!

Cool to see some simians in the COTW...

[Confessional]

Awww, thanks much for the recognition! I have hundreds and hundreds of Apes, but these will have a special place in the collection. Not only a homage, but also represent what's missing in contemporary toys.

That is thinking out of the box! Those look great! Congrats on COTW!

also on a side note - I can't help but think of Astro Smurf for some reason when I look at these - he just pops into my mind.
He was always 1 of my Fav Smurfs - lol!

Again great Job!

Congratulations--so very cool and well-deserved.

Of course now I want to see Dr. Zaius in a silver Gori-style outfit and a space gorilla.
