As a long time fan of the PLANET OF THE APES franchise, I am delighted to have finally acquired RETURN TO PLANET OF THE APES, an animated series from 1975 that is truer to the source material than the movies. Reviews are mixed, but as a completist, I'll just be happy to own it!

So God... I'm not religious and I don't believe in heaven (and you're on thin ice yourself), but I'll do you a deal.
If you tell me my dog will be waiting for me when I get there, I'll believe whatever you want...

It's expensive as usual for Lego (380 euro) but it's a relatively large build at 3600 pieces. Great Christmas present for any TNG nuts out there (like myself).
On sale at midnight from Lego website exclusively (so no Black Friday deal?)
