Gorilla Suit Guy
Gorilla Suit guy was the first of a long series of characters inside of suits, and in my opinion, still remains the best. The printing is simple, but clearly shows that whatever minifigure wearing the suit is clearly some sort of primate. The inclusion of the Banana is also a nice touch, as I am always open to more parts for my collection. The face underneath is also quite humorous and I like it. Now, after owning this figure for a few years, the grey outline on the mask has sort of worn away and turned black as it is only printed, but that is to be expected from a figure that has been "played well with."
Overall, I highly recommend this figure as a collectable to add to your collection.

What's drunk, sweaty, has a banana and wears a gorilla suit?
The correct answer is Me, but in this case we'll let it slide and say its this Gorilla Suit Guy.
This LEGO mini is PURE GENIUS! From the way the eyes line up with the holes in the gorilla mask to the zipper in the back of the suit, it's one well thought out mini. The ultimate kicker being the sweaty, unhappy LEGO character revealed within when you lift the mask off; this mini should be an auto-sought-after mini from the get go. After all, who doesn't want a guy in a gorilla suit representing *anything* in LEGO ville?
This guy is not the easiest to find when molesting LEGO bags of the season three variety: The banana being the easiest item to grope is still small enough to make this a frustrating, yet worthy find. The uniqueness of this character is outstanding. The mask alone is something to behold in the LEGO world and ironically the item you feel for (banana) is the most common piece of this LEGO mini.
Sure it's an easy build as most figures are, but it's a mini you'll be ecstatic to find as well as one of the best out there. LEGO hit the proverbial nail on the head with the costumed series (the next being Godzilla Guy - S5) and I cannot recommend this one enough. Well worth me making a fool of myself at a MicroCenter for. (yes for some reason they have LEGOS there, just ask the Roguish one) An overall well-detailed figure that you'll love, guarenteed.

Is it a man or a gorilla? Or a mangilla?
The Gorilla Suit guy is a minifigure who some believe that he thinks he is a gorilla, and others believe he is lost on the way to a party. Either way, it doesn't matter, because this figure is pretty cool. Almost everything on the figure is new- the gorilla mold, the torso, and the head, which happens to be quite sweaty. This minifigure also comes with a banana, which I found pretty cool as I only have like, 1 or 2 of them. The amount of coolness on this fig is at 11.5 on a scale of 1 to 10. The sweaty head I find to be one of the coolest LEGO heads, and the actual costume of the ape is pretty cool too. And this fig was 2.99? It should be 5.99 for all the value in it! Overall, a fantastic figure. Pick it up if you get the chance.

The best of minifig series 3
When I looked at the catalog of series 3 minifigs, this set is not among my wanted list. But after I got a hand on the real item, I find that this minifig is the best one among others.
First, the details. The face shows some sweat, to give an impression that the minifig is feel very hot inside the costume. Also, when I put the gorilla mask into the head, the holes for the eyes in the mask really fit in with the position of the eyes. Really impressive.
Second, the extra item. You can get a banana for a set that cost around USD 3. It's quite cheap. Maybe you can create MOC fruit shop and put lots of bananas there?
In the end, I recommend you to grab at least one of this minifig, and I am really sure that you are going to love this one.4 out of 4 people thought this review was helpful.
