Funded last year, it finally arrived today.

Arrived

First look


Starting to feel like Christmas
(Note the empty shelf - just cleared yesterday)

Nicely packaged

Heavy. #297 of 550

Whew.  It fits!

Green and gold leafed pages.

Embossed Ape glyphs


Back of the boxes


Liberty tray part 1

Liberty tray part 2 - probably the coolest moment

Taylor's revelation


Higher calling tray (with finger holds)

It's "da bomb"


Miniatures

Some of the game contents

Stretch Goals!

Blueprints

Flip-side schematic

Shelf needs more display work another day...

The "OG" Ape Shelf

I think the only thing remaining is the physical solo rules, which is probably the only way I'll ever play the game, but it's worth it just for the display value.  And all the material from paper to plastic is top-notch.  I only wish I could've afforded another $250 to get the ANSA footlocker!!!
