LIMITED EDITION MONKEY KIT ID LOVE TO OWN (KIPAWA CHIMPANZEE KIT- LIMITED EDITION of 500 World Wide)

i have this thing for monkeys, and i have tied to get every single moneky kit available out there that i can find since i am a reborn doll artist.

today i logged onto my email amd saw i was tagged in someones  post of a kit they want to let go of.
owners in the UK, and taking offers, im not sure what to offer to even get this, and i have other desires for my birthday money, i just havnt made up my mind on WHAT id want to do with it..yet.

but heres some pics to give you an idea of the kit, and how others have designed it.

i would SO jump on this offer, IF the limbs were at least 3/4th.
and in dolly language thats where the arm is almost full and you have a shoulder cap on ot made with fabric, so you can see the whole arm, or most of it anyway, same with the legs.

so the kit as it is, requires a body similar to this, and im guessing the  fur is just the entire body made in this fur material (which is fine, but im not a fan of that)

when id rather have a body, because the limbs would accommodate it if they were made this way, that looks like this:

the kit im showing above is called: KIPAWA
made by: CHRISTO SKOUROVAMUS of Athens Greece for a selected nursery: SIMPLY REBORN DOLLS.

only 500 were ever made, and that kits one of them.
i never see them anywhere online. extreemly rarre to find someone with a blank kit.

*sigh* Maybe..one day...

ARTICLE - CHIMP TWINS BORN (october 3rd 2013)

Chimpanzee twins Thelma and Louise were born to mum Cherri last week

3:12pm Thursday 3rd October 2013  By Jim Durkin

TWO new 'surprise' additions have been welcomed at Monkey World ape rescue centre.
Newborn twin chimpanzees Thelma & Louise were born to mum Cherri last week.


Park director Dr Alison Cronin said: “We knew that Cherri was pregnant but twins were a surprise as they are not very common.”

That wasn't the only surprise element to the story - Cherri had been on birth control but a course of antibiotics for a chest infection last winter caused them to fail.

A spokesman at the Wool primate centre explained: “As the park's birth control 'outlaws', the twin girls were aptly named after the famous movie fugitives.”

The twins' dad is the park's dominant male chimpanzee, Hananya, who was rescued after being smuggled from the wild into Israel for the illegal pet trade.

Chimpanzees are not deliberately bred at Monkey World. Female chimps are routinely given birth control to avoid overpopulation at the park.

However, this is not the first time Cherri's birth control has failed. The primate, who was smuggled out of Africa to be used as a photographer's prop in Spain, became a young mum under similar circumstances more than a decade ago.

 

Park staff have been keeping a close eye on Cherri, now in her early 20s, and her tiny twins.
They'll be dependent on her for at least the next four or five years.

Dr Cronin said: “Cherri makes sure that both babies are placed near to her breasts so that both infants have a good opportunity to feed.

“It is fantastic to see her doing so well, especially as chimpanzees use their hands and feet to walk and climb.
“But Cherri is very conscious to help support the two infants, so her hands are full even when she is climbing up our 20 metre climbing frames.”

Dr Cronin also said it was nice to see how the whole chimpanzee group had come together, with all of them showing interest in the babies.
