      LOL, you sure got that right Jess!! A General Ape is on my wish list...gotta see how $$ does over the next few months.

      The creator of the suit was asked by Paramount to tour London for promoting of the dvd release...that was pretty cool.

        Did I say 2nd job? I meant to say...I funded the suit by selling all my museum cards

            DaveMC's got a good point. You could totally make some kids happy, and score a few bucks at the same time. I always wanted a top notch costume. I could never decide on what. Ape soldier, stormtrooper, Sand Person, Classic Cylon, or Predator.

              That is beyond awesome. I don't even want to know how much it cost you, but it's totally worth it if you could swing it.

                  Hmm..I think that's about an 8 hour drive for me. Not impossible...but would have to see what the Mrs. wants to do.

                    beautiful! i like the fact that rivets are used instead of velcro and such. just make sure it has a quick release for bathroom emergencies
