Does anyone here know anything about tiger scorpions? I'm re-watching
the episode "The Horse Race," in which Galen was bitten by a tiger
scorpion and nearly died. Oddly enough, however, I can't find ANY
Web pages about that kind of scorpion--not even one--leading me to
wonder if it's an actual scorpion breed, or a name created for the
episode. There's an online video in which a guy named Bear eats what
he says is a tiger scorpion, and there are some sites about a
Yoga-like position called the tiger scorpion, but that's all I can
find, which seems unfathomable if there really is such an
animal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Very nice!

I feel there's something very 'nostalgic' or 'Old World' in the delicate way that's been coloured. Like a plate you'd find in a quality book produced in the 40's or 50's? Take away Gideon and replace him with King Arthur or Aragorn...

What the hell am I talking about - anybody know?

Do me a favour (and yourself!).

Go pick up the phone and call SIDESHOW and ask to speak to someone about the new DR Z figure.

Let them know you are part of a community of POTA fans and you need some feedback on the new premuim figure and that there are people ready to cancel their orders, just like you had to, if they don't get some answers.

Give it a go!

Tim, this is what I wrote to Sideshow's customer service when I received the cancellation notification:

I wanted to know if the problems of the Zaius PF jacket have been fixed: Does it look like he's still wearing it backwards because of the curve where the leather meets the material? Does his jacket look like it's got two sets of lapels, one for the front side and one set for the backside? The bottom of the leather of his jacket---is the leather still short or did Sideshow extend it? If the leather has not been extended then Dr. Zaius will still look like he's wearing his jacket backwards--even moreso with the shortened leather. And last, did Sideshow make the exclusive doll with both legs intact? If not, Sideshow must have used the wrong screenshot, and I advise you to look carefully again. I never received an answer from Sideshow, and I do not want to be surprised. These I know are minor flaws, but they are of a concern to me. These flaws would bug the heck out of me, most especially his jacket. I don't care if it's his backside we are talking about. A PF needs to be admired from all directions.

The doll that Zaius is holding could have stumps for legs just like the 1:6 scale Sideshow Zaius.  The prototype photographs conveniently hide the doll's legs.  Although the PF Zaius Exclusive doll looks fabulous and grungy...they don't show you the legs of the doll. 

http://www.sideshow toy.com/? page_id=4489&sku=75141FLEX&utm_source=search01 09

Why would they dress/undress Zaius to photograph his backside?  Doesn't that take up valuable photography time?

And then the other minor gripe I have is the actual pose of the hand for the non-exclusive version.  This I did not mention to Sideshow, but one of the ape freaks on the Sideshow board did mention that it looks like Dr. Zaius is holding out his hand begging for cash.  The hand and arm I think is stuck in that begging pose.  So it just makes sense to take the leap and purchase the exclusive version, which includes a doll that he can hold.  Legless/footless?  I hope not, for the people who already are paying a premium price for this premium format statue.

Who was it that said, Zillion-dollar Zaius?  Michael, wasn't it?  Very "whitty"...

Jess.

Actually, the divine intervention is the folks who shot the movie "Genghis Khan" with Charlton Heston in 1992 and then ran out of money. Now they're looking to finish the movie and release it. Doesn't sound like the recipe for a quality film but if it's any good it'll be one last "new" performance in a movie theater with Chuck. The late Pat Morita is also in it.
