    Found my Apes.

    Unfortunately they are not MEGO.

    I did manage to pick these up on clearance several years ago at Toys-R-Us.

    Too many toys. Not enough space!

    I started to buy those when they came out. I had/have Cornelius, Dr. Zaius, and General Ursus. I liked the bodies, clothing and accessories but was not happy with the heads. Sideshow does 'em better but those are not within my budget. I did wish Kenner would have stuck with the smaller line of "classic POTA".

        I started to get those too, but the faces are kinda ugly. I like Megos better.

          Mego faces are way better...just need a paint job to remove the lipstick and eyebrows on the apes and gorillas. I saw these at the toyshow HardyGirl and I saw, and they were overpriced, like $35 each or so.

          To do list:
          1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
          1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;

            They look good displayed. I picked them all up, back when they came out.The Zira is kinda cute, but its tough to look at the Zaius one, he is so badly done.

            I don't like them as much as the sideshow, or mego apes (obviously).
