Going Ape is the perfect name for a Planet of The Apes Broadway Musical. The apes on the top level are GoGo Dancing, while Urko is working that control stick like a Stratocaster.

Okay, now I want to put an ape conga line in there somewhere, dancing to the new hit tune, "Damn Dirty Ape"...

Cool display, there's a great adventure story in here somewhere.

Nice this looks great, now you need to add human female to the mix.

Thinking of how to put a Mego-esque one together...

Great ideas, they look good.

Added some apes and a darned dirty human and re-arranged some stuff. New female chimpanzee has a little sculpt work for the bangs to make her a little less Zira-like. CTVT provided all the new human's parts.

Neat display... Like what you did with the light blue Urko...

Scott,
Are you sewing these costumes yourself?!? Cause if you are, These are BANGIN dude! WOW! Nice stuff.

No, can't take credit. These costumes are originals or new stuff from Classic TV Toys. For some reason, they have a bunch of colorful ape costumes. I did have to stitch up the backs, as they're a bit loose on the figures, but they have the tops and the tights in multiple colors (even the rifles). Doc Mego has boots and bandoliers (although I have gotten a few of the black Robin Hood boots from CTVT and they look good with these outfits. They look a little more like the actual movie and TV boots, at least from the pics I've seen, than the standard combat boots). It's a pretty cool idea, methinks, something I've never seen before. It adds some nice variety and color to the display. Added a few more of those recently:

Here's the whole thing. Gonna add some more apes; got a couple extra soldier heads already, and will be getting some more of those colorful outfits from CTVT. And EMCE Hammer, I hadn't realized, but those aforementioned colorful costumes do have a definite Return to the Planet of the Apes vibe to them; makes them even cooler than I thought.
