There's no need to fear..
No problem,happy to be able to help you out with your project.I know what its like to have a missing figure in the Cipsa ape set.My Cipsa Bill is 95% custom,he makes a good stand-in until i can get an all original one. My mistake on the "arm pins",i meant just the leg pin dimples.
Yeah, no one have a complete set of CIPSA POTA.... I saw you have a Cipsa Bill with 90% customs in pic that looks like new when it's released in 1975!Originally Posted by piecemaker
I agreed with you until you and I can get an all original one to finished complete set of 'em.
That's OK for mistake on the "arm pins". I understand what do you meant just the leg pin dimples, glad we're found out that can tell it is an original CIPSA, not from U.S Mego.

I couldn't tell from pics in your other threads.Does Bill have the dimpled leg pins too?I'm assuming he does but dont know for sure.
I checked my Cipsa Bill, he has one original dimple pin on the left knee and I noticed he have 2 Mego hip pins that's not original to CIPSA flesh body...... ouch!!! Oh, well.... I understood that happened to B when he bought him from previous owner then he sold to me.
Here's pics of Bill's legs and pins.
He has a Mego right leg. (I knows that's not B's fault, just a mistake but it's no big deal)

Thanks Pat,one Cipsa/Mego fact i did not notice before,that i know now.
You're more welcome, I don't mind he has Mego parts into Cipsa body. That is better than toughest to finding an original Cipsa body parts to fixing him. I'm still very happy with my Bill, I've heard our member megoapesnuts were right that is the tougest to find for a very long time, never been found on ebay and other sites but he can contact with Mex. owner in Mexico to see if he have any left over incomplete CIPSA body parts or just naked or complete for sale then he'll let me know.

Better to have an incomplete/custom Cipsa than none at all,thats how i look at it.
I'm alittle bit confusing, are you kidding me?Better to have an incomplete/custom Cipsa than none at all,thats how i look at it.
BTW,
I'm finished cleaned the Mego Galen head today and I put his head on the top of pencil and then punched in the box hole, to keep the head and stem holds while I'm painting his head (not yet) I post information with 2 new pics in my thread in the Custom Works in Progress.
