July 2Jul 2 The news article regarding the "unknown" prototypes of Planet of the Apes (https://www.ebay.com/itm/389495134742) ... For what it's worth; these prototypes (I believe they are the same ones) used to be owned by Tom Tumbusch of Tomart's Action Figure Digest fame, of which I served as EIC for a number of years in the late '90s and early 2000s. While they sat in a box in the display room of our offices the entire time I worked there, I remember him showing the protos to me once, and he referred to them as prototypes for a Congo spin-off. I created the recurring "Greatest Figures Never Made" article series, and even I did not include these prototypes in any of our articles, due to the lack of data that existed on them. But it's funny, the only time I ever saw them - they were referred to as a Congo spin-off toy line.
