These will look great with the photo real paint tech.

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

Looking forward to Ghostbuster Action figures in Vintage collection packaging.....

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

I wonder if they will release 1:1 scale props like their Star Wars helmets? It would be cool to have reasonably priced props like the trap, goggles and maybe even a proton pack.

Looking forward to HT possibly getting the 1/6th license from Hasbro.

I've been eyeballing the Blitzway figures (I only have Venkman) but now I feel comfortable waiting. Time to sell towering Venkman.

I feel like if Hot Toys wanted to release 1/6 Ghostbusters they would have done so already.

Yep...nothing in the Hot Toys business model of the past several years suggests that they would have ANY interest in a license like Ghostbusters.

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

Ht interested in GB???

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

You guys are crazy.

New Ghostbusters = HT interest

That would be nice and I could see it happening. They're doing props for Power Rangers. I have the Matty PKE and Ecto Goggles but desperately want the trap. The Rubies costume stuff is an okay alternative for now but could be done much better.

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

Fingers crossed! They would be closer to my budget than the Anovos stuff!

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

What ever happened to the S.H.Figuarts Ghostbusters? I missed out on Stay Puft, but I recall seeing prototypes somewhere.

I don't remember them showing actual ghostbusters, I missed it if they did. I didn't get the Stay Puft Marshmallow man either. I had expected a US release, I didn't think that happened?

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

Hasbro's re-releasing the Kenner vintage GB figures?

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

Need better shots of the new figures but great exciting news!

Oh, I guarantee they showed them at a con somewhere, but for the love of fugg I can't find a photo.
Stay Puft was up on BBTS for awhile, if I recall.

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

12'' Hasbro figures....?

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

What a crazy thing to reissue. Who knew those molds were still around. Besides, those were Kenner toys, well before Hasbro bought them. I thought most Kenner stuff was lost to time.

I actually don't have any GB figures. I passed on all the Mattel, Diamond Select, Mezcos, and all other expensive versions.

Maybe I should go ahead and get the main four this time.

Re: Hasbro gets Ghostbusters license

I thought we were just going to get the original four in the 6” line, my jaw dropped seeing Dana and Gozer. I’m all in. I know DST made them, but I really don’t like the feel of their figures personally, or the articulation.

The only thing that worries me is actually finding them. The 2016 merch tanked horrendously, so I wonder if retailers will bother ordering more than one case.
