Check Mego "Soldier Ape" box   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #18736 of 56499 |
Lawless,

You asked if there was going to be a repro of a Soldier Ape box to make his

did try an attempt at making a Soldier Ape box:

eBay item 5906656268 (Ends Jul-04-04 15:08:02 PDT) - Mego Planet of the Apes
Soldier Ape w/Repro Box
