Update: this seller upped his price a bit after he sold half of his stock. I made an offer... we discussed the pricing a little... and in the end I bought one! Still paid more than I would have wanted to after shipping, but this is probably the rarest papo by far wouldn't you think? So for anyone else looking into this listing... consider negotiation! I wish you the best of luck!

Thank you everyone! Estimated shipping arrival isn't until september-october at the latest, so it will be a while I am sure. I will be sure to show him off once he arrives!

@Tupolew Tu-154, I hope you can find your giant orc someday!

I have not! Yikes! He is scary. Shocked I have a figure of the gorilla from the Rampage movie, but that rebor one looks like he would eat both for breakfast. Laughing

Wonderful that you managed to find the albino gorilla. Because of the different colour and the face is painted, it almost looks as if it is a different sculpt than the black gorilla. I suppose it's appropriate that it is rare, because there was only one known albino gorilla, Snow Flake in Barcelona's zoo.

Because it had such a short production run, I believe it isn't so surprising that it has become rare and expensive. I predict that the Papo elephant seal and albatross will also sell for high prices in a decade or so. Probably good investments Very Happy
