I'm actually glad to see straight reissues coming though I am excited for the possibility of new characters too.Comment

Definitely hoping for Taylor and Nova, and my favorite ape of all, Virgil. I am wondering if we might get multiple versions of the main apes, classic Mego and more screen accurate (like they did with the Romulan). I'm sure Mego would love to do the off colored model versions of the apes (hello, re-use!), but that seems to be up to the Mouse. But I would point out that Disney has no problem with Hasbro doing Kenner figure colored versions of Star Wars black characters (they just announced three more for Amazon), so something like blue Zaius is not at all farfetched.Comment

As cool as it'd be to have them make Dr. Hasslein, I wouldn't hold my breath for that one-Eric Braeden isn't happy with "Escape". He's rather embarrassed that he did a Sci-Fi film, so it's doubtful he'd give his permission for them to use his likeness...
I know of a guy who was going to interview Eric for a fan publication, and he backed out last minute due to not being happy with his association with "Apes"/Sci-Fi.
We'll have to lobby Mego to make "Rat Patrol" or "The Young and The Restless" figures to get a figure of Eric.Comment

I hope they do a long coat Zaius... "Beneath" Zaius would be great, but I doubt they'd want to deal with the hieroglyphics... General Ursus would be cool-I'd even settle for them doing a tunic with the rectangles pressed into the vinyl.Comment

Perhaps we will get Mego figures of William Smith and Marc Singer from that one Apes TV episode."I thought they didn't allow no bathin' suits in here."Comment

I can't wait for some well dressed apes and hopefully, Nova. Most welcome news!I post in thy general direction!Comment

I hope they make Charlton Heston in both his astronaut gear and his loincloth, and I also hope they make hbearded and non-bearded variants."I thought they didn't allow no bathin' suits in here."Comment

I'd rather see a continuation what NECA and SUPER7 has done with the license; striking, fun original artwork that renders the packaging a new/interesting/valuable part of the whole package. Let artists and designers do there job.Comment
