Eureka has added Stalin's Ape Warrior project to the 100 club. I encourage anyone interested to help get these produced. link |

Nic always asks for pictorial references from me. What are yours? |

Is it anything like  ? |

You don't think we spent all that money spying on the Reds for nothing do you? |

Actually, those are not Ape Warriors- Soviet Goons just kind of look similar… |

Youse guys are going to get Dawghoused for for dissin' our genetic progenitors (unless that is outide the 6,000 year old world history). Curious George has quite a pedigree. His Grandpa' is my own nazi fundin' fave. |

Interesting. I thought Brigade or Pulp Miniatures would do such a range first. CC |

Never know – i did not use pictorial refs, but figured early war Soviet equip with apes in the uniforms |

Jlundberg, That should be neat, particularly with some of the suggestions on your previous thread: TMP link CC |

I don't think you are being fair to chimps. They are part of the higher order of primates, whereas |
| John the OFM | 11 Nov 2006 10:44 p.m. PST |
Last time I checked, the status on that was 1+. 149 more orders to go. From my experience, IF it gets produced, it takes at least 6 months to get the requisite number of orders. Not only do you need 150 ordered, but you need at least 10 different people ordering.
The jury is still out. Youse guys are steering this boat into CA territory, and yourselves into DH. Pack your bags for a nice stay.
Oh, it won't be me hitting the [!], there are enough of them around. 8^) |

Are there any ape species native to the Soviet Union? Or is this the real reason the soviets started intervening in Africa – nothing to do with geo-politics, and everything to do with securing a supply of primates? |
| Steve Flanagan | 12 Nov 2006 5:09 a.m. PST |
Of course, that would be post-WW2, so early-war apes would still be a mystery. Perhaps the British and Americans supplied them, alongside Hurricanes, corned beef and Ford trucks. |

Check out these hybrids: link
link Personally, you create a more aggressive and resourceful hybrid, although smaller-framed, if it was human-chimp and not human-gorilla. Chimps are the most aggressive of the great apes. They love to hunt monkeys and have even been known to eat enemy chimps. The aggressive tendencies have now sparked some chimp groups to create weapons, such as spears, to further accomplish their goals: link Gorillas and Orangutans haven't developed hunting weapons because they don't have that aggressive drive, even though they live in similar environments, have monkeys and other vulnerable creatures around and are under similar habitat pressures.
