    POTA Silver/Grey Soldier Ape ??

    I had purchased a POTA silver soldier ape with gloves sewn by Theressa from an original silver tunic from a great seller on Megomuseum (I will not mention his identity just in case the silver ape is not real). I purchased another on Ebay because it looked different. I thought it was a variation or degredation and I would just be returning him. In fact they are both identical.

    Please someone with more experience than me take a look at these guys. I just started collecting Mego's this past June. I am hooked because everyone that I had dealings with on this site is terrific!! I love collecting Mego's!! Just want to make sure especially because I will have to offer one for trade in the marketplace.

    The light may make them look a bit different shades of grey/silver but they are exactly the same in every way inside and out (believe me I checked).



    Very best regards and many thanks in advance,
    Joe

    They look legit to me. I own two mego silver ape figures and they look identical to the ones I own.

                Thanks to all!! I am pretty new to Mego so I need alot!! I think I am going to post the one that has the original gloves in the marketplace. To be honest, there is no way of telling but I do not want someone to suffer later on if there is some difference that I cannot tell.

                Very best regards and many thanks,
                Joe

                      The ape on the right has the gloves that were sewn by Theressa. She is incredible. I cannot even imagine sewing these small things so perfectly!

                        Yeah, I remember that few years ago on her ebay.

                        She did a great job on those gloves from the tunic!

                        I don't care if it's hand sewed with another SSA original tunic with worn or torn off on the back gray vinyl, it's worth than incomplete loose SSA that missing it's original gloves VERY often.

                        I'll get it when I found another one someday.
