Michael, someone has brought up the question of whether or not Hot Toys is going to revisit the figures that Sideshow has already churned out. Is Hot Toys going to create figures that have not been made before, or is their purpose to create and blow out of the water the previous Sideshow incarnations?

Julius is definitely a figure that has not been made before. However, he's a gorilla. If Hot Toys makes him, then he will be their fourth gorilla.

Holy crap, Michael, this is exciting for me. I have sent out a bugle call to the ape kingdom to see what the apes want next. Their deadline for responding is July 17. I for one would love a Dr. Zaius wearing his riding suit with all the delicious hieroglyphs. Of course, you can't have Planet of the Apes without Zira and Cornelius. Whatever list we give to Hot Toys, it's got to be the list that will make their apes sell. I'm looking at it from a marketing perspective, not a wishlist of what toys I want made.

The whole 1:6 community is already saying Hot Toys will make no more apes because it's dead in the water. I for one would love to make the doubters eat dirt. So, this has become a personal issue with me.

This is the time for the fans to unite. Fight like apes!!! It's time to take over the world...the 1:6 world. XD !!!

Only Hot Toys can make the figures that we (especially me) long to have, and I am asking you to write to their customer service to let them know that you are waiting for more of their wonderful apes!! I will just be the happiest of all chimpanzees if Hot Toys will announce the coming of more apes. If they can create a Dr. Zaius with his full Forbidden Zone outfit bearing all the delicious hieroglyphs, well, that will just be so fantastic. They may as well, since their spectacular General Ursus needs him to ride into the Forbidden Zone. But in any case, if Hot Toys can make such spectacular gorillas, what is to stop them from bringing on their chimpanzees and orangutans?

Then you would need Taylor, so a Taylor, Lisa and Virgil.

If you did Milo I'd suggest doing it in a pack with all 3 astro apes with interchangable clothing as well as groovy clothes!

Only until some dipshit with an agenda reads that I am in contact with them and calls to warn them that I don't really represent any POTA fans. I guess I'm just a random looney with nothing better to do right?

But funnily enough people who do silly things like this just end up looking really bad themselves.

Subject: [PotaDG] New Novel - CONSPIRACY....

Don’t know what booth they are at, but it is BLAM VENTURES.

It’s not a comic; it’s a novel with pictures (apparently from some tried and true POTA artists if Jusko is anything to go by).

The NOVEL is entitled “Conspiracy on the Planet of the Apes”.  It's story set during the first movie and centers on the Astronaut Landon and Chimpanzee scientist Dr. Milo. The novel is written by Andrew Gaska and his two creative partners, contains over 20 full color "paintings" (digital and traditional) from various top talent in the industry and will be in all the bookstores in the Spring of 2010.

Do we know what booth they're at?  Or, what the comic is called or the publisher?  I tried to find it, but can't.

I don't like the painting at all.

First off, the inconsistent shading on the astronauts makes the
painting look like it was pieced together in Photoshop.

Second, the perspective on the backpack is wonky. It appears to be
about a handspan wide at the bottom.

Third, the balls on the bead chains are all drawn as though they're
lying on a flat plane. Some are smaller than others, but they don't
overlap as they should.

Lastly, the information on the dogtags is wrong. Dogtags are issued
soon after a person enlists in the military and are worn for life.
They contain the bearer's name, ID number, blood group, and religion.
In the past, some have included the name and address of the bearer's
next of kin, and the bearer's branch of service, but that's rarely
seen anymore. Their purpose is to provide basic identification in
case the bearer is incapacitated. They're not a freaking résumé. They
aren't updated for each mission, or when the bearer is transferred to
a different ship. Dogtags don't identify the bearer as a soldier,
sailor, pilot, or astronaut.

I think your being a little harsh about the picture if you can do better then get on with it.
Your wrong about the dogtags i still have mine from the Falklands War , they have your rank which is a give away about which service your in.
What they have on them is name, seriel number,rank,date of birth and blood group and thats it.
But the purpose of the painting is for the good of pota fans and its not trying to be politically correct.
One more point i did not paint it or have anything to do with it , but well done artist , lets have a limited editon signed please for my kind words and keep doing more of it.
