1975 MEGO Planet of the Apes ULTRA RARE PURPLE GENERAL URKO T-2 MINT

Suit looks pretty bright purple to me. Don't remember a Mego Urko like that.

I do however have the Mego Burgundy Urko which is rare. Palitoy

Have never seen the purple vest Urko.

Any opinions would help.

It's burgundy, not purple.

[Cornelius POTA]

It's burgundy, not purple.

I realize that.

The eBay photo looks very rich purple to me. Looks nothing like the Burgundy Mego Urko I have.

Maybe it's the camera ?

[megoapesnut]

Definitely the camera or a case of overexposure due to a close flash. Might look slightly different on some displays, too. It doesn't look purple on mine.

The bandoleer strap on this one looks red ... making me think all the colors are off

I'm colorblind.
Smurfs are green, right?

Don't worry. Come time for me to settle on the new house and I'll probably be selling it! Actually, I have a carded one I will sell you now, if you can't wait

[sauce]

Carded. You naughty boy. Let's talk. :-)

Don't worry. Come time for me to settle on the new house and I'll probably be selling it! Actually, I have a carded one I will sell you now, if you can't wait

I appreciate the offer. However I'm sure to buy one on the card would not be cheap at all. I should wait for one that's out of package.

Oh, WOW! I didn't know that showed up last 19 days ago, it's been a very long time to showed up on ebay! I won the 1st Maroon Cuffed General Ursus that's the same one seen pic on that ebay link last about 6-7 years go on ebay went for $210. That's not General Urko, that's black face General Ursus without molded helmet. He has the same color as mine, it is maroon-purplish tunic with cuffs that looks like little purple to me I sold him to our member then I bought another one from our Admin member Dave Mc and sold him to our member nayrbgo last year and then he sold him back to me because of my old Truck that had a major restoration!! It's done, I kept him forever because of that's very toughest to find for a very long time. Hope someone have that one for you......
