I asked if the classic line does well could we see "mego" versions.
Answer: "Possibly"
Just check their twitter feed.Comment

My mom used to say "maybe", that always meant no.....
I trust you that they said it and it's nice that they're not opposed to the idea as much but I ain't holding my breath.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

NECA has the license for the new movies and classic POTA so they are the only ones who could do it.
That said, POTA has a very loyal but small fan base - myself being one of them. When DST and EMCE
were making ours, Sideshow was making gorgeous 12 inch ones. Added to that, Fox would not let us
make any characters outside the first movie, so it was a non-starter.
I saw NECA's Apes - beautiful statues.Comment

Is this even three points of articulation? def in the category of "Nerd Hummel". sits nicely on the shelf to display.

They look to be articulated at the ankles, knees, hips (look at Zaius), waist (swivel only?), neck (turn only?), shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Seems the sculpt is meant hide the obvious movements, which is pretty cool approach. Of course, this may in fact impede the range of movement as well.
Hummels be damned! :PComment

I'm liking the Soldier Ape, the other two not so much. Zaius looks resigned & defeated, and the length of neck & droop of shoulders on Cornie looks...corny.Comment

I never had any Mego POTA growing up, and I missed out on the re-Mego versions. I would be first in line to buy new POTA 8inch Megos if NECA would only make them. Since they feel there is already the retro versions "out there", I'd be happy to get modern sculpting like DST's Universal Monsters.Comment

I think EMCE's apes would have really taken off if NEW characters were mixed in. Too bad it ended when it did, they were perfect.Check out my website: Megozine Covers - HomeComment

Not a huge fan of the format but I think a 3 3/4 POA line would be awesomeMy Custom Figures

I'm glad they didn't overdo the articulation.
It spoils the look and flow of the clothes.
And what we will do, is get the figure out, use the articulation during about five minutes (tops), and then never move that figure again..
