The Right To Bear (Chimp) Arms

i found this motorized toy in a thrift store for $3. i think the arm assembly could be very useful for a future project (like the mini b-9 lost in space robot project i am contemplating). The toy is a hasbro furreal chimp. I imagine all you would need to do is some dissasembly and replacing the motor with a servo.

the animation of the arms lends nicely to a robotic look.
