Has anyone ever put together a reference on textiles for the Cipsa Apes?
I have a couple of Ursus figures that are drastically different material wise. I know there were a couple of color changes on the sleeve fabric for a few of the Cipsas. Was wondering if anyone has documented other differences.
The black pleather on these are worlds apart. One is very thin and fine grained, the other is thicker and has more texture to the grain. The inside webbing stuff is different as well. The thicker one has the same grain as the chest area insert on my Urko figure. I have not seen the thinner material anywhere else in Cipsa (or Lili Ledy) figures.
I did find what looked like one other smooth version that went for sale in the marketplace somewhere in the last year. Dave Mc was selling it, but I am not sure who picked him up.
Any and all input appreciated. Have a GOOD time.
