Humans struggle for survival on the Planet Of The Apes

In the year 3978AD, a spaceship carrying 4 astronauts crashes down on a distant planet.  One of the crew members dies and leaves the remaining three to set out and explore the planet.    Charlton Heston (Astronaut Taylor) along with two others set out to investigate and find that the planet is much like their own and discover they have landed on the Planet Of The Apes.  A land where men are uncivilized and apes have learned speech and technology.  One of the men is shot and killed and the others including Heston are captured and taken to the city and cannot communicate because of his damaged throat.  Most of the animals are in fear of the new arrivals but a few of them become friends with the humans.  They are subjected to brain surgery and placed into a state of living death.  They are put through a trial and astronaut Taylor escapes with a female human.  Eventually they learn that the Planet Of The Apes might not be so distant after all.

Now you can relive the Planet Of The Apes with all of its characters.  In this upside down world the apes are in charge and humans struggle for survival.  The fiercest warrior in the army is Attar who is feared by everyone around him.  Now you can add this action figure to your collection.  This solid 12" figure of the captain of the army is dressed in his battle regalia, with full armor that includes breast, shoulders, and thigh pieces, a belt with studded plates, and boots up to his knees.  He also wears a black shell shaped helmet on his head.  When taken off it shows is sharply pointed head.  His arm can hold is mighty club which is decorated with primitive patterns.  Almost all joints are articulated to both bend and rotate, and he can stand easily on his own. 

Another fighting figure from the Planet Of The Apes is Major Leo Davidson from Tim Burton's epic movie.  He is articulated at the waist, shoulders, wrist, neck, and one of his elbows, and maintains a fighting stance.  He is sporting a tight fitting zippered space outfit, tracker, gun, and a removable space helmet and ready to take on the army. 

Also available are Planet Of The Apes playstation games.  You crash land a space ship on an uncharted planet 1000 years into the future and are the sole human survivor.  You soon discover that evolution has taken on a twist and that apes are now ruling, and humans are the lower form of life.  To survive you must progress through this action game and unravel the mystery of the story line.
