One of the Breyer girl figures also has long dark hair, but she is smiling way too much to look like someone stuck on a planet full of hostile monkeys!

The Astronaut was mentioned when the APES repros were first announced, but the only one that will be able to tell you for sure is Dr. Mego himself.

And I don't know if they're even planning on venturing into the TV series characters, but if they do, why not make a new Virdon and Burke? Maybe EMCE Toys would actually make their outfits the correct color(s) this time. But, judging on what I've seen of their STAR TREK repros, they're pretty much sticking to the original styles, so I'd guess that the APES figures would be done the same way.

Well if you folks really want new characters you could always do it the old fashioned way! Swap Cornies outfit onto Dr. Z and you have the new character of Uncle Zippy. Swap the Cornie body into a Soldier Apes outfit, and you have the equivelant of a Trek red shirt.
Swap the Gorilla into Ziras clothes and you have a .....well you would have a.....well, thats one seriously disturbed ape!
