[GeneralApeGuy]

I'm glad our MM member Bryan (aka nayrbgo) sold 4 Mexican CIPSA Planet of the Ape figures me last few weeks ago and arrived them to my new home and then I cleaned up all dirty damn Apes!!!!!

I had over 200 pics, edited them in 3 days and half nights.

I'm finished edited them in my Photo Shop on my Computer. Finally, they're looks great!!!! More pics:

I received them in a flat Priority mail package and opened them up then I took all parted out and cleaned all of them very well job!

I put separate clothes and accessories in the sink, 2 bowls and in the Master Bedroom bathroom sink. I washed all of them gentle with anti-bacteria liquid dish soap, to removed germs then rinsed them off well and used Oxi Clean is for Bill and Dr.Zaius outfits but I'm glad the clothes are safer!! I never used that without white outfits color that I've heard in few years ago, a member told me it ruined his Mego Cheron's jumpsuit so I refused that on colored vintage clothes. When I'm done then I padded the outfits and accessories gentle with new softer rags, I put them on the towels to let natural air dryed in 3 days and then I put all them back together, looks MUCH better!!!!!!!

What do you think?

(This is before)







I washed the accessories and heads then padded them with soft clean rags then let them natural air dryed in 3 days



On the right side had melted mark on the left side of the head near it's eye. On the left side to replaced CIPSA Soldado Ursus head by me and I kept melted one in the storage boxes.

When I took all the figure's outfits and accessories I noticed on the back of torsos that had been shaved off the copy right from the Factory in Mexico since 1975 and resin with different molded medium brown than Mego T-2 dark brown body.



I noticed this Bill on the back of torso also have been removed the copy right same as CIPSA Ape's bodies. I've seen Bryan's Bill has been shaved off the copy right and stamped on the back, mine is different.... Factory error? Or did they forgot to stamp CIPSA on the back of Bill's torso?



Also, I noticed some of CIPSA Ape boots had been trimmed off on the back of heels with opened small holes and sometimes without back hole heels is original CIPSA if it comes with shinny or slight fading boots.

some, but not all, of the torsos have 'Cipsa' on them.

They are looking good Pat. Hope you get the bit with the leg cleared up.

Some of the bodies had the CIPSA logo stamped on the back and some did not. In fact, darn few of them had that and only on the Bill body. No CIPSA ape bodies have been found with the logo stamped on to date. And it wasn't sanded of the actual bodies, it was changed on the mold before the bodies were created.
