    POTA collectors is this something?

    Never saw a Soldier ape with black tunic, but no cuffs.

      The inside lining is a dark blue, but the outside is definitely black.

          I've examined the inside and turned the sleeves inside out to examine the stitching, and it seems to be the real deal. It would be the first I've ever seen.

            I think Rich (Kryptosmaster) got a lone black soldier ape glove in a lot of apes stuff.

              Really, this variation is not shown in the museum, so I thought if it's real that it might be a rare find!

                There are black tunic apes and black cuffed tunic apes. Harder to find than the blues and browns, but not so hard as the maroons, lizards, and silvers. Tough to spot in an ebay photo tho, unless you get nice closeups.

                  Hopefully the black variation with gloves will eventually get mention in the museum soldier ape page if not photos.

                    Hmmm, VERY interesting!! I'll hunting that ones in the hidden Auction.

                    Thanks for let us know about that black tunic and a black glove, great eye!

                    You can send pic(s) to Brian in PM, I think he will add your pic(s) in our Mego Museum site gallery.
