I really like the look of it, but that soundtrack seriously does not fit (I have the feeling that they used the wolf version's

Yeah, I think I would cut the cords on that one and see about rigging a foot pad under it or motion sensor for that location that could trigger some other gorillas in the wild type soundtrack to play. Potentially I could see it being used in a jungle scene in the tent of a jungle animal poacher that meets an early death by his previous captive animals who are now loose and not happy (maybe something like the "Zoo" CBS TV show that just started airing...It would be timely....http://www.cbs.com/shows/zoo/). I have a jungle theme with ransacked researcher or treasure hunter's tent on the planning board but could easily go that way. I already have gorilla/ape, lion, panther, snake, monkey costume/props for my circus/carnival acts that I planned on reusing for the jungle theme one so for me not a hard stretch.
Hmm. $39 not so bad I guess. I could also see using a mask and some Joann Fabric gorilla fur to make something like it but I do think the gorilla face on this is perfectly set for the prop and probably couldn't get the right look with a mask because of the way the head tilts. Certainly not for a rug.
I guess I should start paying more attention to the OT emails I receive for discount or free shipping offers.
Got two paper catalogs today!! One Halloween & one party.
They've got some props that other places have only cheaper & some other neat new stuff I haven't seen elsewhere but not sure on the price. They have some higher end stuff online too & ton of cool party stuff, some of it on sale too. Most of these are under $100 too if not way cheaper.
Haven't seen this one anywhere else, Standing Blind Girl $69:

I got the Halloween Oriental Trading catalog today too! Squee!
Truly, I was impressed with their large offerings. I don't view OT as the greatest in quality, nor do I think anyone should. But, I think they offer a great variety of stuff for all types of budgets. I also think they've got a good feel for what the average home haunter might want or need - they are offering some great backdrops for all sorts of themes, like the Asylum Hospital Backdrop Banner, or the Haunted Cemetery Backdrop Bumer, or the Haunted Farmhouse Backdrop Banner (my fave!). They are perfect for an indoor party or even to cover a garage door! And that they are offering some cardboard coffins, tombstones and even cemetery pillars & iron-look sign - I think that's fantastic!
I think the Goth Vampire & Lady that RCIAG posted are really nice. And the Standing Realistic Zombie (hilarious name!) is such a great option for someone who can't or doesn't want to do their own figure but wants something they can add a bit to.
The Flaming Torch Lights for $3.49 each also look awesome for the price - a bit of doctoring with some extra tissue paper or yellow cellophane 'flames' and you've got a fantastic prop for the price!
Also, although Day of the Dead is not my area of interest, I noticed in the catalog that they have some great options that look good - like the Vintage Day of the Dead Statues , Day of the Dead Gummies & Frosted Suckers, Plush Day of the Dead Skulls (like party favors), and some super cute Day of the Dead small metal pails that they show are Exclusive, as well as DOTD Paper Fans & Garland.
I'm definitely planning to order some things and if you don't already get it, I recommend getting your hands on a copy of their Halloween Catalog!!

Had to laugh when I read this. I have a spirit lifesize static zombie prop and on the outside of the box it says "Looks just like a real Zombie" LOL I am thinking about selling it but that alone is worth keeping it just for a chuckle every Halloween.
