the single strips to the PDF file until they make up a full page (4

printing them out.

I thought Whitty had the story all written out? But now I get the impression he's making it up as he goes along, especially due to that fact of his not even having a name for Ursus's wife... What's the deal?

No, that's Urko's wife!

But hey, NAMING character is a real challenge too!

I read a post recently where you guys were discussing the origins of
some of the POTA names and I started getting paranoid about
whether "Garvon" sounded right or not! Hell, I thinks it sounds
OK! BUT I think I need reassurance now! ;)

Brilliant name for a (bad / nasty) lead gorilla in my opinion.

I've seen/heard before that behind aggressive people at work is an
even more aggressive spouse. Though that's probably not a usual
case, it would make sense in Urko's case - why else is he hell bent
on invading the FZ? To go to war? Or to get away from his wife?!
He was probably happy to die just to end the misery! (again, just
fueling the fire).

I think she is overly happy, full of energy, a staunch encourager!
I think she is very involved with community affairs, but not overly
committed. I think she has an important job at the local hospital
or orphanage, but that she doesn't bring her work home with her.
She is genuine and probably doesn't really understand the sort of
angry current and agitation that flows through her husband's
demeanor.

No but I did.

I was thinking of Nair. 

Did I spell that wrong?

Anyway. If it's the German pronunciation

it is very easy to remember.  Whenever

you see the ie ei vowel combination,

you only pronounce the second letter,

and that is pronounced as a long vowel,

like it has a line over it.  So in that spelling

it would be pronounced Niira.  Like it was

spelled Nyra.  So to have it pronounced like

Zira, Germanic, you'd have to switch the ei

to ie and spell it Niera.  But I would just

spell it Nira.

Excellent!

 

I'll be trying to immortalise some more toys too in the near future.

 

Something I felt was sadly missing in Sauseville's book was a commentary and analysis/discussion of the different aspects of the toys.

 

I'd love to get a date on the release of these and others too, if anyone has any ideas!

Terry, where are you!!!???

How do I know? Because there's a gorilla featured with a disco-ball jacket and a cool helmet – it is Ursus.

Uhh true . . . Some list POTA as a '67 flick, but that's just the year production began.  It wasn't released until '68.  So it's actually a '68 film, and the merchandising came later.

I agree......should we maybe take advantage of the
space on the "collecting " group?
Did I send a post saying I had posted the Colorforms
background and instruction booklet in the Collectables
folder? It was late last night and I don't
remember...!

The name "Ursus" means "bear" in Latin. I wonder if the Apes know the
meanings of their names? Caesar seemed to know that HIS name -- which
he purposely chose from Breck's book -- did have a meaning above and
beyond just being a bisyllablic word. Does Virgil (etc) know the
meaning of HIS name? Etc etc.

Galen, at one point in the series, mentions (in a lie he was telling)
that he had been hunting a bear, as I recall. I wonder if they know
that the word "arctic" also refers to two celestial bears -- what we
call Ursa Major and Ursa Minor -- with the Greek word for "bear"
("Arktos") coming into play?

How's about naming Ursus' wife "Ursula"? The name means "she-bear",
and I could imagine Ursus -- upon meeting a gorilla chick whose name
complements his own -- thinking that they'd make a good couple.

Another possibility: Livia. That's the name of the Emperor Tiberius'
mother (and wife to Emperor Augustus/Octavian). If you ever saw the
excellent BBC production of "I, Claudius", you'll see what I mean.
Livia was a manipulative "power-behind-the-throne" type of woman. The
mother -- who has since died -- from the first season of "THE
SOPRANOS" was named after her. If, in "WITHIN THE POTA", Ursus' wife
is perhaps supposed to be a power-wielding manipulative type of
person, then "Livia" would be a good choice for a name.

Just one note: isn't it strange that two female ape names, Zira and
Kira, LOOK like they should rhyme with each other, but don't? Kira
rhymes with Tyra (as in Tyra Banks, hubba hubba), rather than Zira,
which rhymes with Indira (as in Indira Gandhi, not so hubba).

Perhaps, if there IS an alphabetic meaning to each glyph symbol, the
spellings of the letter "i" in each name is slightly different, so
that the single English letter "i" transliterates two distinct
vowels, a "long i" (pronounced like the pronoun "I") and a "short i"
(pronounced like the "i" in "knit"). Just a thought...

Perhaps we should stick to the bear theme, and name her Ursa or Ursala or something like that.
