        It's not POTA.

        It's described as "ape gloves" not "ape hands".

        So...are these repurposed parts from a comic-based Grodd for a Stooges/Gilligan's "gorilla suit" variant figure?

            I hate to disagree but I do believe that they are talking POTA and my reasoning is because if you click on any of the product links, it'll say (for example) "Item Number: URKOJACKETBLACKBLACK".
            Urko being a member of the Gorilla army of the POTA TV Show.
            I wish they'd add the photos to the descriptions.

                  I'll bet that FTC is offering different colors than DM, if not also different styles.
                  WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                    I would love to see FTC do this with Star Trek, even if it's just clothing items and weapons,
                    they already have the bodies with black boots.

                      From the description, it sounds like it might be the hooded cape, just without the hood. Satin finish, wires inside, hook at the neck.

                      Really hope they add photos soon, as I'me ready to order a bunch of stuff.

                        the item number is TVCAPE so its either Batman or Robin's cape in different colors.

                          Or it could be Superman's cape. Or Shazam's done right!

                          Besides, it's a holiday weekend.

                          I don't foresee new pictures coming up until after next Tuesday at the earliest; Friday at the latest.

                              You're most likely right, but FTC changed it. There was no way they could use a name easily protected by copyright in any part of the description. I don't see how they could produce the heads and not violate copyright. The Chambers makeup is i.p the way Universal Monsters are.

                              I'm guessing the hands and ape suits are not as hairy hands were used for Trek and WGSH and the ape vests are not exact replicas of the POTA designs or Klingon vests. Have to admit that's pretty clever. Almost guarantees Lizard, Neptunian, Mugato, and Talos head replicas. Have to think Thor and Mr. F fall into that nexus. Torch also if they shaved off the flames.

                                ^^^ The General jackets have Urko in the part number, and still do.
