NECA Highlights Dawn of the Planet of the Apes Series 1
NECA has raised the bar on its product photography with a stunning pictorial of its upcoming first wave of figures from its Dawn of the Planet of the Apes line. Ceasar, Maurice, and Koba look to have some fantastic sculpted and painted details. Personally, I was hoping for a little more mobility from the articulation (these are apes, after all) – while there’s a lot of points of articulation, it looks like some movement is hindered by the sculpt.
Still, articulated monkeys, especially at NECA’s retail price point, should be a welcome addition to many toy collections. These hit shelves in May.

It’s Monkey Monday!
To celebrate, Caesar, Maurice and Koba gave us the rare opportunity to sit in while they rehearsed one of their scenes in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, in theaters July 11. And from the looks of it, in the time since the last movie, things have gotten — well, a little out of hand.
Check out some gorgeous studio shots of the ape-ocalypse to come, and be ready to get your paws (stinking or not, but preferably not) ON these apes in May!
Nice.
