Amy the Gorilla, Congo Movie by Kenner 1995
Congo – Amy the Gorilla (Kenner, 1995)
as Communicator Gorilla with Backpack Unit
Straight from the silver screen comes the star of Congo—Amy, the signing gorilla with a heart of gold and a taste for martinis! Released by Kenner in 1995, this action figure captures the gentle primate heroine from the cult-favorite adventure thriller that blended science fiction with jungle peril.
🦍 Trivia Time!
Amy wasn’t just another movie animal—she was a breakthrough character brought to life through a mix of animatronics, puppetry, and suit performance under Stan Winston Studios, the same effects team behind Jurassic Park and Aliens! In the story, Amy uses a special backpack translator to sign and “speak” in English—something inspired by real-life primate linguistic studies with gorillas like Koko.
🎒 Included Features:
-
Communicator Backpack with harness and equipment

Realistic detailing modeled after Amy’s film appearance
