I am 36 years old and i have never been so excited to see the retro figures on the shelf at walmart one random day. Now this. Im praying for the firehouse.

Seeing Jason act and play with the Kenner Classic’s brings a tear to my eye it just shows that he’s a child at heart

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.

You are correct about the 80's bug eyed ghost. The body is a bit tough. I remember having difficulty popping the eye out when I was a kid because the body was so stiff.

It’d be cool to see a release of a Janine figure that comes outfitted with flight suit and proton pack done up in all the retro awesomeness

I had the Kenner Ecto-1A as a kid and never knew the seat could go inside the car.

@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.

I really like you show the differences from the originals to the new figures. Though thats a little more info on ray then we needed lol. Btw, did you notice the original Ecto-1 has a black, not white string on the Ghost Grabber Claw?

I'm looking forward to finding the Fearsome Flush. I remember playing with that one as a kid.

I never had the original RGB stuff, but I’m having a blast getting them now.

He’s excited, he’s gotta have a poop 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

This is my favourite Ghostbusters news video ever

I've got them all preordered and cannot wait. I really hope we get more in this line. Real Ghostbusters has always been my favorite and getting more ghosts and vehicles would be great.

Hopefully Ecto 1A is in the future. Also maybe someone makes a light setup for the top ones.

Bring on Ecto-2!

Been wanting the ecto-1 since I lost mine years ago, so glad they are re-releasing it. Almost identical to the original.

Yeah when i saw the guys on the shelf at Walmart i felt like a kid all over. I could tell the cardstock was a bit different but it was amazing to see them on the shelf right next to He-Man toys

I grew up with the ecto 1a toy, complete with slime stickers! I already ordered replica stickers of the ecto 1a toy, super high quality. Can't wait to get the hasbro ecto in the mail!

Janine don't stare at me, you got the bug eyes! Janine, sorry about the bug eye thing, I'll be in my office.

Awesome video man!..got mine yesterday! Love your channel 😊..regards from Dublin Ireland ☘

Omg do you have any idea how much my son in law would love the ghost buster house and characters and car to give to his little boy. He grew up and loved ghost busters in fact him and his wife my daughter and my grandson dressed up as ghost busters. What a treasure you have I hope your children love playing with all the treasures you have. Way to go and thanks for sharing the amazing things you have.

Man, I'm hoping for Firehouse and/or Ecto 2 in next Hasbro Kenner wave

Thanks for the side to side comparison ! I totally went down nostalgia lane with you !

Love your videos!! Definitely getting these!!Would have loved to see the dashboard comparison or any of the interior?

I’m so excited I’m hope they to the firehouse

I just ordered fearsome flush, eye ghost and ecto 1. So excited

very close to the originals I think Hasbro has done an amazing job at these recreations, it's actually made me rethink the bugeye ghost it looks cool with the bigger eye.

Something I think you might’ve missed, I seem to recall there was a hook that a person could hang the grab claw from ??

I can't WAIT to add these to my collection!

It makes me so happy to see that Ecto 1

I ordered Ecto-1a stickers to put on this. Lots more stickers and the ghost is holding up 2 fingers for Ghostbusters 2.

I already preordered the crap-let. 😜 I mean fearsome flush. I’m so glad these were rereleased. A year or two ago I was going to purchase FF from eBay since I never got him back in the day. So glad I waited.

Just ordered my Ecto-1 here in the UK. Can't wait for it to ship!

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).

One thing you didn't address: those red tail fins! I had issues with the original ecto of the red fins coming loose and coming off. I'd have to pop them back In all the time. Wonder if they managed to fix that at all? Glad they fixed the flush an bottom of ecto. I hated getting carpet, hair, etc stuck up in the bottoms.

never knew about the demonic face on the back . cool!!

I used to have the original Ecto-1 and Firehouse and all the characters.

I am so surprised that you didn’t even break as a kid the seatbelt on the Gunnar chair.

I remember getting the Bug Eye ghost when I was a kid and that son-of-a-bitch was hard to get the eyeball to pop out. I'm happy to see that it is a more softer plastic

I love seeing all this awesomeness. Sadly I've never had a single ghostbusters toy show up at my Wal-Mart here in nova scotia. Was hoping to start collecting when they first started releasing everything sadly no ghostbusters in my neighborhood 😢

hope they make Real Ghostbusters Kenner Classics ECTO-2

'Don't worry I got the car!'

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!

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.

I love Fearsome Flush but I would've preferred H2-Ghost for Wave 2 of the Kenner Classics since H2-Ghost was 1 of the 3 carded Ghosts from the original Wave 2

Still....wheres the ecto-plazm?

i have no idea if it's real, but i saw someone say that fearsome flush will be in afterlife

I really hope they do the ghost trap.

Fearsome flush was sold out but Bug Eye is still available and so is the eco 1. They need to remake the fire station

I sure did sir ecto will arrive in Aug, long time away lol

I need this in my life

Been awhile since the last Ecto Build video. Will there be a new one soon?

if you buy another Ecto-1. you can take the chair from it and put it in the back of this Ecto-1 and now you have 4 seats in an Ecto-1 for all 4 Ghostbusters

You did not mention that the windshields are pretty much different on those Ecto-1s?! The newer one appars to be more "bubbly" and higher than the old version. Great video, apart from that!

The purple thing on Fearsome Flush is his nose...put the lid all the way up;)

wow ecto-1 just a 3 seater. poor ray

Assuming it hasn't been left in sunlight too long, plastic from the '80s shouldn't degrade much...some older plastics got gooey and sticky with age, but that was 1960s and earlier..

Fearsome Flush on the toilet cover thats the actual nose :D

Any idea who did the vintage/new art?

What...I were to purchase Ecto-1A repro stickers and use those instead?

Damn I was hoping they started shipping...

As much as i loved my original ecto1, the Playmobil with lights and sound and details blows the kenner one out of the water

They are going to release Ecto-1 A too?

Yeah, these are great.

Do you know I if the plasma series figures fit inside?

Is it me of does the front window look more bubbled on new release ?

Thanks for this vidéo but it's pity u have not the box of ecto 1 to compar👍🏼

I still have those, the original ones.

I would love to collect this series but I’m just so tired of international (uk) fans getting badly screwed over on the price, we have to pay sometimes double when you factor in exchange rates. :(

they said it was going to come out in stores back in april…What happened?

yay a review

Woooooo!!!

Jason have u looked at the RC ecto1 car 35th Ghostbusters anniversary edition

The original Ecto looks like a Afterlife version

hi Sir, can a Marvel Legends like Spider Gwen size sit inside the ECTO1?

I got the first wave and bout to get the second

I do wish they didn’t do the clicky wheels. They get so loud. My kids run around quickly pushing the original Ecto-1 that I have and it really is murder for the ears.

I got the new Ghostbuster popr i ordered Ghostbusters 3 poster when i get take a pic and pick it on Instagram

I lost my seat on my Ecto-1.

The only thing that the new were version is two white so what I'm gonna do I'm gonna keep it in the garage with the heat so I can change yellowish color lol Color the rims chrome

I'm not fond the Kenner Classics Ecto-1's back door does not latch at all.

i just ordered the ecto 1 cuz i of this video lol

Love ray poop story and the five years later gb2 reference. 👍🏻👍🏻

Hasbro Kenner Classics Ecto-1 sits a little different

I was born in the 80s I remember as a child I have this original one that will still better hasbro gets lazy with there painted jobs lol for$45 nah while back than was $25 in the 1990

HIIII

Appeasing collectors who whine about the value of their figures causes an instant gag reflex in me 😂

Bug eyed ghost doesn't really work

Hey Jason, i accidently go with a Dislike, but great video.

I'm disappointed in the choice of the figures. They're some of the cheapest and most readily available on secondary markets. I wasn't expecting anything amazing like a new receptionist deco Janine figure made in the same spirit as Hasbro's new Moff Tarkin figure done in the retro star wars style, but I do hope before the RGB reto line ends that we get the ectoglow figures as I never saw them once as a kid.

Now that we've got the Ecto-1, I'd love to see Hasbro re-release Highway Haunter at some point.

these figures come with the small parts warning instructions.
