How can you not love little monkeys, right?

The gorilla looks odd because, aside from the hair being too long, the hair line along the forehead doesn't follow the brows. Other than that they both look awesome to me. But it's odd that someone is diving into the apes again after Sideshow did some decent looking figures already and stopped making them (though their humans were crap, aside from the mutants I guess).

Yes, he's definitely missing a widow's peak. I just wish Hot Toys did sculpted hair instead.

Oh well. At least this way I will have a doll (err....action figure) with hair I can comb through. Just for yucks when I do get my General Ursus, I'm going to french braid or corn row his hair.

Jessica, can you post more pics of the two soldier apes like you did Ursus??
Most of the sites take forever to load and are smaller.
Thanks,
Lynn

I don't have access to photos of the Captain, as that will be a Sideshow exclusive.

I can't get it bigger than these:

Thanks!!
I may just have to get these, these are sweet.

Here is Apemanias site Display Mannequins that you can compare these new toys to the some of the real deal suits that have been restored and available costumes and costume parts that for sale.

This place has the gorilla soldier for $129, but I don't know how much s/h is.

Ursus is SWEET! I always dreamt of a figure like that. I think they really got him right!

Not being a POTA fanatic, it looks like Hot Toys did a really great job with these figures. In some of the pictures, the sculpts look so "real" that it's eerie.

WOW! I e-mailed Hot Toys and they e-mailed me back!! I just want to make sure that when they create Zira, they make her as screen accurate as possible. This means making sure that they make her brown underdress more screen accurate, and her green jacket better than Sideshow's with correctly positioned hieroglyphs (not upside down) and better seam placement of Zira's green jacket. They are going to send my photo and sketch to their creative team. I am so stoked. I hope they listen to fans and really knock Zira out of the park.

Here's the sketch:


And here's a photo of a the screen-accurate brown underdress I made, to correct Sideshow's error. (It also has the brown strings too!!).
