Didn't they also announce 1/4 scale figures?

Here's a preview of Wave 2's Dr. Zira... For some reason, the top 1/4 didn't show up for me, so if anybody could post her picture in here, I'd appreciate it. Thanks...

Here's a look at all three figures from Series 2... Also shows the 8" Mego-like Taylor (as seen in other parts of the MM forums...):

I would LOVE to see them revisit this in Mego form like they're doing with Taylor. I'm sure that figure is the testing grounds to make more.

If they're doing Ursus, they aren't adhered to just the one movie like Diamond was. This could mean a lot of things, mostly empty wallets....

Imagine Taylor walking up the beach, falling to his knees before the statue of Liberty that is holding up an empty wallet.
"They've finally done it! They made too much Apes merchandise!!!!!"

But I'm not complaining. We're spoiled, spoiled, spoiled. Good times ahead...

Yes. Mine.

Would love to see a study of the television show with a real effort to recreate Mark Lenard as Urko.

That's one good-looking gorilla...

Dang! There is an oversized format as well? 7", 8" Mego style, and is the largest one 1/4 scale? I'm wondering if Funko/Super 7 is considering doing 3 3/4" ReAction of Apes.... seems to be an obvious choice for a retro format license.
