HI GUYS,

 

DOSE ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THE OLD POTA COMIC'S TO?

 

THANKS,

<.html

Just found this on that Palisades Forum thread....

"First series covers first film only, though the other
films are in discussion at the moment. Includes humans
and apes...and yes, every pack will come with a unique
character and a Gorilla Soldier with some variations.
Should be a very fun, very cool line to work on.
Really excited about it.

Excited about heading up to Toy Fair too...lot of the
folks are there already but there are four of us who
are leaving in the morning to head up to the Big
Apple. Should be great to see some of the displays in
person in their new locations. I'm trying to avoid
looking at pics from the show coverages as much as I
can so I can see the stuff in person. Besides there
are some things that were sent directly to the show
that were so last minute I haven't even seen them yet!

What's funny to me the most is the panic that besets
these boards over the pics of the prototypes. "OMG
will it really look like that?" In some cases yes and
in some cases no...everything is always a work in
progress until it hits the shelf, that's the way we
have always handled it. If there is room and time for
improvement, no matter what the stage, improvements
get made."

Hi Helen, Neil and Michael,

 

Helen,

 

Thanks for starting the Marauders idea and allowing us to all have equal share in it's creation and actions, I have fully enjoyed being a part of this the past week.

 

Neil and Michael,

 

I would also like to thank you both for being such good sports and letting us girls run your group this past week, you are really cool!!

 

Well Helen, I am heading for Central City, don't know about the rest of ya!!

We've had a lot of fun!  And you two have been real sports.

I think you will find everything to be in order.  Sit back and
relax!  You can take the wheel now, put on your own music, invite
your own friends, and put the top back up. 

To the Marauders I would like to say:  YOU GIRLS ROCK!!  I've had a
ball and I've enjoyed working with every one of you!!  We have 16
(15?) Marauders, and I think we outnumber you boys any day.  We may
not be especially visible, but we are strong and we exist, and we
think, and we like to talk!!!

So, take the wheel, Neil and Michael.  But, let us drive sometimes. 
We might take off in a different direction, but in the end we're all
headed to Ape City (or Central City)?  Oh dear.  Maybe we aren't all
going in the same direction.  Ladies... I'll let you decide! 

Helen

Thank you all!  This has been a lot of fun!

Um,has anyone (Mike and Neil) noticed a change in the comic artwork?
I mean it's really good and all but something seems different. Why do
I get the feeling you really did cut out their brains and the two of
them are sitting in a corner somewhere drooling on themselves?

There you go! We eat a lot of cinnamon toast around here!

More and moe and more.
In the file section in the Sideshow folder is more new ape releases
for prorder tomorrow
They are
Ursus, Brent and Caesar.
I hope the prototype of Caesar changes; it looks like they use
Cornelius' head. I know it is a different Ape played but the same
person, but they still looked somewhat different.
The sculpt of Ursus looks like Urko to me.
What do you all think????

It makes me sick that people are so money hungry that law suits like
this turn up. Before I had a family and could afford to be more
generous I would give and corispond with the Gorilla Foundation on a
regular basis. They are great people who do amazing work. Not just
with Koko but for all the gorillas in their care at the sanctuary
they have worked so hard to build. I only hope that this will bring
some attention to their real work and help remind people that the
gorilla that speaks sign language they learned about in the 70's is
still around and could use their help. Many of the animals in their
care paint and are learning to comunicate and express themselves
through training and interaction with Koko herself. I hope this
doesn't damage or threaten all they've worked so hard to achive. I
also hope that when this is all cleared up that the media gives it
the same attention that they gave throwing the story out there.

Is there any other company/site that distributes the SIDESHOW figures
cheaper than the official SIDESHOW site?
I just saw the URSUS figure, looks great!

Hi Dan and welcome.

We have heard reports that your health has been poor - I hope you are

There are rumors that Palisades Toys will be producing a line of 4 inch figures based
on POTA. Apparently, there are no sculpts or anything to look at, but they are hyping
the line at the annual Toy Fair, going on now in NYC. Check out the message board
at:

www.palisadestoys.com/

I do to, that's why I want to get a jump on it, preferablly somewhere
a few bucks can be saved. He looks better than the 1998 figure.

Thank you, Michael and I appreciate the welcome back.

I wouldn't say my health was "poor", but yes, I had some issues late
last year where I had no choice but to step back from things a little
bit. But yes, I am feeling better and gradually working back towards
my lovable self.

I really agree with that, John! But, I wonder how many will
withdraw their support in light of this article. I wish people
would just get angry and throw their money into the project! If you
look on their site, you will see the sad but lovely story of Koko's
adopted brother Michael. Some of his paintings are featured on the
site, and I think he was actually a brilliant artist! I would love
to put the picture he painted of his pet dog on my wall! And these
are apes that are teaching other apes to sign. It's all very
amazing. I hate to see this newest scam take the spotlight. And,
even if it were completely true, it doesn't negate the amazing work
they have done.

.html Yes, William T. Quick to be precise.
.
After novelizing 2001 POTA, he wrote to prequels "The Fall" and "Colony". I wasn't interested in reading these myself, but then Menluth posted some short reviews and it appears that these novelizations are superior to the movie itself. I only recently acquired the third, but have yet to read them.

There are also 3 "Young Adult" novels written by John Whitman. Again one is a novelization of POTA 2001, and the other two are entitled "Planet of the Apes #1: Force" and "Planet of the Apes #2: Resistance ". I have no idea if these are any good.

All of the above are published by Harper/Harper Prism

.html Thanks Helen. I had to drop out of 'the Party' to get back to work, but I read the many emails later. A success and I concur that it would be nice to have these every now and then.

Since the Chat on the Yahoo page really doesn't work, we should consider opening up another chat medium. It's success would also depend on whether others (who are interested in having occasional PotA 'parties) would be willing to download client software, whether it be IRC clients or the Yahoo Instant  Messenger client, or something along those lines.  The problems with these are that some ISP (and workplaces) block them for vaious reasons.

Anyhow, before we get too far in this I'll see if I can spend some time investigating in the coming weeks.

Another alternative is to create yet another Yahoo group that can be used only for these "party" occasions. That way those who are not interested won't be deluged by emails.

I wasn't going to mention Thompson, but

passing, since despite his liberal leanings

he did frequently brandish weapons, a

practice that our cousins at the bottom

I have a print of a painting Michael did called "Stink Gorilla More."
Back when I didn't have a family and could be more involved they used
to send me all kinds of great artwork, posters, books etc. I had to
read my son "Koko's Story" by Ms. Patterson last night after digging
out all my old Gorilla Foundation stuff. I wish more people could see
how amazing their work is.

Finally! Some action (and more unanswered questions) from all that
build up and suspence. I hope we don't have to wait weeks in between
instalments now that its really starting to heat up. I don't think I
can take it.

Yes, we have (& read) Koko's Story, too. The kids think it's cool
that the woman wants to work with Koko, but the older kids now think
it's sad that, in spite of the good work that is being accomplished,
Koko is still a gorilla in captivity. (They just now told me this.)
I think the most awesome thing is that Koko can express FEELINGS!!

"Stink Gorilla More?" Interpretation please?

Well I'm glad to know that there are at least another 5+ strips yet
to come. I also think this helps prove Taylor was right. Dr. Zaius'
main job as "Defender of the Faith" is really to be the "guardian of
the terrible secret. All other laws or responsibilities to his ape
public fall to the wayside. Nothing,no matter how sacred, is as
important as making sure man is viewed as a worthless animal. I think
this also validates my vote for the good Dr. as the character hiding
the most secrets.

I'm really not sure what Michael ment by "stink gorilla more." With a
gift to the sanctuary they were building in Maui, they gave prints
from either Koko or Michael. My old boss got "bird" by Koko. They
didn't give any backstory on the artwork and you couldn't pick which
print you recieved. They both "signed" their artwork with thumbprints.
I guess Michael was feeling not-so-fresh the day he painted mine. It
also shows that they really painted and named their own work. Just
the fact that the paint on the canvas had "meaning" to him is amazing.
And the fact he could share that meaning with us is something no
other animals (that I know of) can do.

Yup, it did mean something. That's the amazing thing about
language. Even when we speak to each other in the same language
(humans) it isn't always safe to assume we know what the other
person really means. It's still a code.

And it's amazing that with time apes and humans can share a code.
Who knows what lies in the future.
