Planet of the Apes Treehouse



A completely revised gallery page for the Planet of the Apes treehouse today including all known boxed variations and the releases for both Canada and Mexico. This is possibly the best known POTA toy other than the figures, it's easy to see why.

Mego Trono Simio



The Planet of the Apes throne is another fun illogical piece from Mego, was there ever a throne in anything Planet of the Apes related? Above is the Mexican version of the packaging, I especially love the way General Urko is drawn here.

Enter Galen!


"Zaius? Urko? They'll Never stop. Never" -Galen

The final Megomuseum card reveal is Galen , the other compassionate chimpanzee scientist. We're always trying to do things as Mego had done them and this card had Scott channeling the vibes of the R&D department circa 1974, enjoy.


Galen sponsored by Megostore thanks Joe!

The Judgement of Doctor Zaius


"All my life I've awaited your coming and dreaded it.
"-Dr. Zaius

The astronaut's plight takes a turn for the worse when they come about against Dr. Zaius , who makes a convincing case for their extinction. If only a compassionate Ape would help them.....

Examined by Dr Zira


"All right, but you're so damned ugly.
"-Dr. Zira

Now in Ape City, Verdon and Burke must try and appeal to the good nature of "Woman scientist" (according to the old commercials) Dr. Zira , will they be successful? Scott's created the backgrounds here by hand.

The Apes Net Alan Verdon


"what happened to humanity?"- Alan Verdon

Astronaut Alan Verdon runs straight into a soldier Ape's net in this new entry in the Megomuseum Planet of the Ape cards. Eventhough this is not an Ape, Scott's design will make this card the favourite in the series for many.

Peter Burke makes a run for it


""come off it Alan, this is home from now on you know it""- Peter Burke

Headstrong astronaut Peter Burke is making a run for it while General Ursus and his "Men" (a common goof on the series) move in. Personally this is one of my favourites in the series, just because it is so dynamic.
