I’d love to see hasbro commit to remaking all of the original The Real Ghostbusters toys and maybe they’ll make characters, vehicles and playsets that Kenner never made. You know give ghostbusters the treatment they’re giving their Star Wars retro collection.

@Ghostbusters News: For Christmas 1986, I got the Ecto 1 from Kenner. It was one of the best Christmas presents ever. I played with it quite a bit during my childhood in the 1980's. Seeing it being offered for sale again brings back a lot of memories.

Unpopular opinion here but I thought the Ecto-1 was a miss, even as a kid. I always loathed the seat on top and was frustrated that you couldn’t seat four Ghostbusters inside the car. You had to put two in the front and just lay the other two in the back. And forget trying to load the proton packs with their long streams into the car. I think the Playmobil release is a major upgrade. Seating for the four Ghostbusters, racks for the proton packs, and electronic lights and sounds (and no roof seat).

@mr.adventure01422 жыл бұрын
No question. You can quickly see the differences between the vehicles. The quality from back then was not necessarily the most important thing that seems very different today just like with other toys (remember jurassic park from kenner). Everyone spallt and knew about the vehicle from the outside, be it the doors, the color or accessoiers such as stickers are a visual measure. However, there is a problem, today's toys break quickly after a short time at play, which was not the case with the originals or was only minimized, as they were made more robust.

@@GhostbustersNews unfortunately it's nothing to do with that bud. Take the standard figures they're $15 which is roughly about £11. The standard figure sell in the UK for £16 which is about $22. The ecto is even worse selling for £60. If I was importing that would be understandable but this is off the shelf prices. I know it's standard and sadly the way things work but it still sucks

Love this series 2. Does indeed have minor changes. Bug-eye is indeed a different shade from the original 1987 release, his body is so much softer for the action feature, my original got a crack in his tail by 1991 from stepping on him since he was so hard. The newer has harder arms tho. Fearsome Flush is also indeed slightly different shades. My MIP one and loose from 89 are indeed a different skyblue. I like how the new one can hold Plazm in the bowl. Woooo! The new Ecto is also indeed more white, and the windows are more clear. Most of these changes in the whole classics line are most likely changes in the plastic production types compared to the 80's. 80's plastics were typically saturated in PVC types with flame retardants, it would yellow quicker and was typically never true white like teeth naturally are. Wish series 2 gets US cardbacks. Surprised it released with the Canadian variant worldwide... Now it wont match 1st production US series 1... D'oh!
