The Real Ghostbusters - Complete Collection - Part 2

[@David315842]

In the Uk we had 20 episodes of The Real Ghostbusters released by RCA Columbia Pictures Video/ Magic Window, on 10 VHS volumes with 2 episodes on each. We even had 'The Best Of' releases which was 2 VHS (later DVD) releases that chose 8 of the episodes all ready released and put them in those two volumes (4 episodes per volume). Then we got the Ghostbusters episodes on the Ghostbusters 2 DVD release as extras (like the Region 1 release) and that's that.

Great review of this series of cartoons. I use to watch them in the 90's. Those VHS boxes look as if they are in mint condition.

[@Stoudman]

JUST A CARTOON?! JUST.....A CARTOON?!! SCREW YOU, SONY!! Jeez Sean, when you say in depth, the depth of which you speak is limitless and wrought with potential!

[@David315842]

The first 13 ABC episodes of RGB is due out for release by Sony on June 15th. If sales are good, Sony may release the rest, as for extras, it's unknown if this first set will have any.

im glad they they finally realease a boxset because those for 4 episodes thems disk

[@David315842]

I guess the set might be released in the UK, depending on sales of the DVD's in the US perhaps. A website called Video Help has codes for most DVD players to make them multi-regional, perhaps it can help you.

well i went ahead and bought vol 1 and 2 on dvd today and watching vol 1 right now so yea :D

[@preacherman777]

Interesting DVD review. I never really watched the cartoon, but enjoyed the movies, so I found it interesting. The biggest thing I remember about the cartoon was that there were two different Ghostbusters cartoons, which was something I always found to be very confusing. I take it the other one must have lacked legitimacy since you didn't even mention it.

The U.K. had a 10 volume set out on VHS which i had. Nice boxes too.

[@AutobotBlurr]

I used to have the bed covers with the art work of the knock knock vhs lol wish i still had it lol

[@madman88]

"If there's something weird and it don't look good! Who you gonna call?" "Zaranyzerak!"

[@slagarcrue85]

@Zaranyzerak also in some version of the episode with the boggie man episode the first on there was a scene were wintson breifly fight the buggie man by him self that was left out of some of the version of it that were posted online for some reason.

[@David315842]

Well like with many other cartoons RGB had a large fan following over here. So I guess Columbia wanted to go the extra mile with us I do believe Marvel UK published the RGB comics and very likely would have written stories that were unseen in the US, the same could be said about Transformers etc. The cartoon itself was repeated from time to time, up until about 1998-ish, as it was a major hit on CITV.

[@David315842]

Ah yes I remember those. Thanks for the reminder. :)

[@Stoudman]

I feel ya on that one, Obi-Sean. Even just as a fan of cartoons in general, I just can't stand the attitudes of some of these companies. They sold Flintstones as a prime time cartoon, they sold The Simpsons that way, and Family Guy, ect....and yet some of these execs still treat cartoons like they aren't good enough to be considered prime entertainment with any profitability. FOOLS!

[@rhiannonjohnson3655]

great job

[@shatteredirony]

It would be awesome to have this set released in the UK but i sadly cant see it happening and having checked UK Ebay only one of the volumes are present which sucks.

[@slagarcrue85]

@Zaranyzerak the first season actual doesnt end until miday through t he second our third of the 5 volumes. It's a wate of time by the other season individual after the 70 to 85 some original episode season aired the remaining season only lasted 9 to 30 episode each because they mad a bunch of changes that fans did improve of. Including bring in the junior ghost busters who only appeared in 2 episode I belive

[@The90sGamingGuy]

Awesome.

[@madman88]

i want to pick this up but the price is what kills it for me even though its probably worth it. i'm waiting on the x-men vol 1 and 2

[@CoolXer0]

amazon has the complete batman TAS boxed set. $99.99 Canadian.

[@BigLeo7205]

Hey Z, How can you get this set? Do you have to order it somewhere? I've tried to find this everywhere and it's apparantly not in any stores.

[@jiidee]

try to stay focused.*snaps fingers* never mind the food show us the dvds.

[@CasimusxPrime]

Sweet.

[@madman88]

i know right but hey are you gonna pick them up as well?

[@septemberblueuk]

I just bought it from a guy in the UK.

[@CasimusxPrime]

Were any of those episodes Slimer Come Home?

[@TravisBierwagen]

Issues 9-11 were some of the BEST RGB comics. I recently did a video about my GB collection (toys, comics, DVDs, etc) check it out if ya got a chance!

[@technopugdad]

That's fair. It's your style and your show. Perhaps it just isn't for me.

[@technopugdad]

My problem with this review is the length due to the amazing amount of useless filler. We don't need to know about the smell of food in your apartment. And while it is interesting to hear about the toys you had or the comic series from NOW! Comics, it has very little to do with the actual freakin' DVD series. Review the DVDs or review the comics. I mean, you made this review like five parts, make a part about the comics, and another about the toys if you want to cover RGB as a whole.
