New Ghostbusters Figures

[Kuzeh]

The News Paper that comes with Winston is great. Not just the GB add, but also an add in there for Tax Returns from Louis Tulley, and an add for Patent Clerks. A line between Peter and Ray in the beginning ; "You know how much a Patent Clerk makes?"

Yep, there's also a post for a Library attendant! !

In case anyone is interested I am selling my 12" ghostbusters boxes:

Ebay Link

PM sent to you today about the Ghostbusters boxes. I hope I can get them from you. Please get back to me when you can. Thanks!

Got Winston a couple of days ago and finally opened him up. Best sculpt of the bunch. My only complaint and just on this one is that Mattel put him in a small box. It was slightly crushed. I'm not a MOC collector, but they are promoting the box art. If Mattel is going to put Adult Collector on the box at least treat it like one.

 

[JediMike71]

Agreed. There was the earlier issue with Venkman's "conehead" due to Mattel's box squeezing it too hard. I had to put my Venkman's head in some warm water to get it back down to normal size. Mattel should do much better with quality control on the packaging. I hope to get Winston soon in the next few days. Then I'll have all four 1:6 scale Ghosbusters!

my biggest complaint about these figures is the unfriendly nature of the packaging. it wouldnt take much for matty to sort this!

Honestly the most annoying figures to open I can recall. At least it is almost over...

And why such elaborate postured packaging for a direct to customer sale? It is not like you have to catch the eye of parent or child in a retail store.

If boxes can not serve as functional storage then they should be 100% recyclable too.

Ok, so now we have all 4 ghostbusters in 1/6 scale, who's next? And how long before they start reissuing the 4 main guys? He anyone has any ideas i'd love to hear, hoping personally that egon is the first reissue as i missed out on him and the massively marked up ebay prices are a joke for a figure that's gonna be re-released soon anyway. I'd quite like to see a louis tulley figure, as it looks from the prototype 6in figure as if they have moranis's likeness rights now. Feel free to speculate away, love to hear your thoughts

I got in my order last night for the 12" Winston Zeddemore figure. I saw that the 7" "lab coat" Ray Stantz is now sold out at Matty Collector. I didn't really jump on that one because I wanted to be sure to get Winston, so that now I've got all four 12" Ghostbusters.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Is there really going to be more 12" Ghostbusters? Re-release? Of the same figures? Lame-O.

I wouldn't mind a terror dog, Tully or Slimer but that's it.

I'd like to see more custom work around here though on the 4 we got. Me included.

That said, I got my astro elbow pads coming soon I hope. Gotta get my sculpts painted.

 

[neoshady]

Any idea when the re release will be?

 

[Eamon]

I finally got my 6" Venkman today. Very nice figure I think.

Now after just over a year, I finally have the four lads together.

 

[Batfreak]

a little OT but heres a quick video i made yesterday, what do you guys think? lol.

Would any of this be GB related?

 

[Dudda]

They are back together again!

 

[sigep756]

Got 12" Winston earlier this week and the guys look great together. I enjoyed collecting this line, but am probably done with it as I won't be getting re-issues for the sake of accessories. I am hoping we get other characters in 12" form someday!

Next GB purchase...PKE Meter! Woohoo!

[CAZAFANTASMA]

I love Your Egon and Ray! They look amazing. The other 2 are also good. But Egon and Ray are just like the real actors! (i believe)

Thanks for posting! And Slimmer looks great also!
