Want to do a 15mm game of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes(1972 ) game. I have 15 mm Riot police but trying to find 15mm apes that look similar to those in the movie.

Hi, I do 15mm POA Gorillas in the POA and Beneath POA uniforms. I sell them in bags of 40 for $21.00 USD with smg or rifles.

Battlevalor Games has a set on Ebay in 15mm.

I'm not sure of anyone else who makes them in 15mm.

Thanks

Thanks but i was looking more for the look they had in COPA, knives a pistol or two, etc. I have riot police and civilians but need these gorilla's to represent the mobs that attacked the various human forces. I am considering your minis for a future POA game. Thanks for the response.

Also LOVE your "Cylons" Expect me to order some of those too. Many thanks.

In fact just ordered some.

I appreciate the order! I'll start working on them on Monday.

I think maybe Eureka made them in 28mm in those COPA outfits. I had some heroclix riot cops with M16's and Riot shields that I thought would work. Just never sprang for buying the boilersuit apes. I already had some metal POA figs and a second army didn't make sense. Now if I find files for it, that's another story.

Thanks

Battle Valor Games and John are both A+ people.

Yes those are okay but the apes I'm looking for would be armed only with knives , clubs, etc just like in the movie Conquest of the Planet of the apes (1972). The rioting mobs of apes would run into double lined formations of riot police with pistols and shotguns. The game I have made up has one player or 2 control a few units of riot police while the other players have a number of ape mobs about (8 or so mobs each 10-20 figures a mob) to try to overwhelm the police and secure certain key locations. Once the ape players run out of mobs or capture a number of key facilities the game ends. Also ends if the police have no figures on the board left.
