The first time I saw the apes in Planet Of The Apes film I was scared silly.
When the gorilla General Ursus showed up in Beneath The Planet Of The Apes I was even more frightened.
The General Ursus 12-inch fully articulated figure comes in a Sideshow Collectibles flip lid box with information about the movie on the inside of the flap.
The cover of the box is a recreation of the movie’s poster.
Inside the 12-inch figure is snug (along with its accessories) inside a form fitted clear plastic cocoon and secured with plastic straps seen through a clear plastic viewing panel.
Can you imagine coming face to face with a leather-clad gorilla that only wants to imprison you and use you for target practice!
The figure is so elaborate in its multi-piece leather outfit that only one accessory comes wit the figure (not counting the circular base and support wire).
General Ursus carries a brown automatic pistol that fits in the holster that comes with the character's outfit. The figure’s preset hands hold the weapon tightly with no slippage or tilt.
General Ursus comes dressed all in black with knee high black boots molded to fit his simian feet, black cloth trousers and a long sleeve black shirt.
The Gorilla General wears a heavy leather helmet with leather side flaps and inscribed with symbolic ape insignia worked into the leather.
He wears a heavy chest piece with tooled shoulder and neck guard, upper arm armor plate, a full front and back tooled leather armor and thick black leather gloves.
Despite being decked out in heavy leather the figure moves easily under the uniform with no awkward disheveled armor pieces, unsightly and unnatural cloth folds or creases.
The sculpt of the ape face is exactly like the movie General with his flaring nostrils, large muzzle and dark, deep and foreboding eyes all framed by his full black beard just below his chin.
