NECA - Planet of the Apes

Hopefully we do get some info on series 4. I was surprised too by the conquest gorilla, though I suppose it makes sense to have it in the same wave as Caesar. I'm most interested in seeing Julius up close.

SWEET!!! Julius is actually one of the characters I was hoping NECA would make and here he is!!!! I can't wait to see up close, good pictures of him! Now if only Series 4 has Lucius I'll be happy!!!

Julius is one of the characters I really wish Medicom would have gotten around to making complete with cigar.

Me too. Hopefully they made an effort for it to will look like Julius and not a generic gorilla.



And that he is more brown than Ursus who is more black skinned.

I have waited a LONG time but it looks like I'm FINALLY getting my favorite gorilla!

They say that the Gorilla 2-pack is a Toys R Us exclusive. I am just wondering, with this set due in November there is no pre order available on there site. Yet there are other pre order options for other figures though. I sure hope this is something we can order online, because my Toys R Us Sucks!

Anybody know how to post pictures using Photobucket? I built an ape building I wanted to share and I just can't figure it out. I am kind of computer handicapped

This is a lord of the rings horse. I made the ape dwelling out of Dow (pink) insulation board. cut it out with a drywall saw. Took each piece of the foam out in the gravel driveway and stepped on it to give it an uneven texture. Primed it with latex primer. (brush painted it) then air brushed a couple coats of bleached sand color. Once that was dry, I lightly sanded it to bring out the white highlights. The base is 1/4" particle board. Flag is fabric from Jo Ann fabrics, then i air brushed the ZEB lettering on both sides. Still seems like it is missing something. I think it needs some random vegetation and some stains on the walls. Let me know what you think. With Julius com in out now, I think I need to build an operating room with a cage.

Fresh off Facebook:





I really like the two tier hair style but not sure I'm digging the Elvis pompadour on Julius.

Well, at least it doesn't look like a generic gorilla!

I love that he has his cigar, and has a key. I'm impressed.

 

[crue-leader]

AWESOME! Too bad this wasn't coming out before Christmas, I would be buying everyone in my family one of these.

 

[crue-leader]

Hope he comes with that wicked cool broom!

GREAT coloring in Julius's face... I wish I could see his eyes in these photos though!

And by the way, sorry to de-rail your post... like your dio Crue-Leader and that's a great idea using a LOTR horse!

Crue Leader, awesome diorama, your building looks great.

Wow, I am very happy to see these figures. Wave 3 looks very promising.

Here's an updated shot of Taylor... I don't like the stitching on the suit and look at that forehead!:

Crue Leader - The dio looks great and really sets the figures off.

And I can't wait till Julius hits stores and the 8" gorilla.
