I feel sorry for the guy who goes into the toy isle behind Michael and is stuck with the stunt double figures...

At least they've eliminated the danger of crossing the streams.

The fact that Walmart had anything in stock surprises me. I have a hard time finding shake n bake at my Walmart. So hearing someone found something they wanted at Walmart is almost mythical. Good job Michael!

That has got to be the best Bill Murray face sculpt/paint apps on a figure I've seen yet. Good find, Michael! This is why I prefer going to the toy store and choosing the figures I want, especially the ones with better paint apps, or with no blemishes or stray paint smudges.

Your venkman sculp immediately made me think of the stripes movie poster lol

If Hasbro is smart, they’ll come out with an Accessory Set, including extra proton streams and other equipment, maybe even some new pieces, like the sniffer. Too bad the bar to entry is set so high...

Now I want to check eBay to see if there are any proton beams being sold as fodder.

Wow, those are actually cool. Thanks for showing us.

The diamond select figures were great, I also have a soft spot for the Mattel line as well

That's awesome how you grew up in the '80s and you were able to experience all the 80s goodies when they first came out. I grew up in the 90s and I couldn't imagine what it was like to see the original Ghostbusters in theater when it first came out and even the second one for sure. I definitely bought this Hasbro series 1 set of 6. I personally love this set and happy with it. That's what I ended my collecting journey with. Thanks for the good reviews as always truly.

I came from the Pixel Dan recommendation. I subscribed for the killer reviews and deadpan dry humor.

My Wishlist for Ghostbusters: Plasma Series: *Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (1984 film) *Slimer *Zombie Taxi Driver with his steering wheel ripped off and with his taxi cab as accessories (1984 film) *Ghost Librarian (1984 film) *Muncher *Clean Ecto-1 (1984 film) *Modified Ecto-1 (Ghostbusters 2 1989 film) *Rookie *Louis Tully Ghostbuster *Scoleri Brothers (Ghostbusters 2 1989 film) *Ivo Shandor *Vigo (Ghostbusters 2 1989) I Hope Hasbro they will make these missing figures.

Maybe Hasbro Pulse will release an accessory pack with additional proton streams and include an exclusive figure like Louis Tully.

I would love to see a figure of the EPA’s top man Walter Peck added to, well, any line of GB figures. Maybe even a two figure set-they could add the guy from ConEdison that shuts down the containment unit. Great video Michael!

For the price of these 6 figures i bought the entire playmobil line in an amazon sale. i'm not a playmo fan, but these are just cool and complete with playsets.

I picked up the Ray and Peter figures today and I gotta say,I like them.

Where's Louis Tully?

It makes sense that Playmobil would be the more play-capable toys. Otherwise, they’d be called “Collectmobil.”

I love this set.

I got these and I like them. I didn't buy 4 winstons but I did buy the "old man" versions of the surviving ghostbusters which each come with a proton stream so now everyone has one. I also ended up making my own ecto by picking up an ambulance designed for wrestling figures and applying some "no ghost" logo stickers I already had. There is an area on it where I would love to add black and yellow caution stripes but for now it works. To me it looks like something the Ghostbusters might actually have made.

There’s definitely room for improvement, but I don’t think Hasbro is done yet. I’m hoping a second wave rounds out the cast of the first movie and gives us a couple ghosts. After that they can jump to Ghostbusters 2, Afterlife, RGB, or even Extreme GB, plus all the variants Mattel and Diamond Select did.

0:38 Did they us a still of Ray when looking at the Vigo painting and he gets that goofy look on his face for this head sculpt?

As a big GB fan I still prefer the Diamond Selects. I do agree on the Playmobil set being AMAZING.

I hope the success of the REAL Ghostbusters re-issues makes Hasbro considering making more unmade figures like gozar, Dana, Louis and the terror dog in that classic kenner style.

I'm looking forward to the new 5in scale Ghostbusters Afterlife toys. Movie based, but with a cartoon aesthetic.

I should get these. Great movie when I was a kid.

Mattel, DST and Hasbro have all made a "No Dana, only Zuul" figure. Maybe I'm boring, but I'd like a regular Dana figure, maybe based on her first scene. They could even include accessories like the Marshmallow bag, the egg carton and grocery bag.

ugh see...I knew I didn't see streams...

I think to be the only on this planet who love the mattel's version.😔

Thats my problem with toys and toys companies today. They never want to risk giving buyers a complete line or experience. Im trying to get into Marvel Legends now but it so difficult to get the figures I want.

Another great ghostbusters video. Thanks for another fun video.

Nice review! Thanks RB!

I love the Diamonds...

Definitely more accessories required BUT overall, these are the best 6" Ghostbusters I could imagine.. If they had had these back in the 1980's OMG..

I like the end card

I like what you’re doing with your end screen now. May need to try that out with mine.

Hi, I have bought these for my son. How did you put the backpack harnesses on? Thanks

The set I picked up looks great. It's amazing how far figures have come since the 80s TRGB ones...

I Love ghostbusters

I agree that all the 4 figures shouldve came with proton streams and Winston should’ve also come with an opened ghost trap

Did you have problems securing the pack on Ray's figure? Some say the belt from the pack is not long enough!

Picked up the entire wave for Christmas on Walmart Clearance. Got really lucky with each figure having great paint apps.

I know Michael’s not into 1:6 but I’d love to see a reaction to the blitzway ghostbusters figures.

great review about pros and cons of these figures. great review

I was lucky enough to find a whole set to view and enjoy but the price to take them all home I had to say no. They do look great in hand.😁👍 Congratulations on getting a full set.👍

Hey RB ...what ecto 1 would you recommend to scale with these guys. I went with the plasma series myself because I felt they were good enough as opposed to the more expensive ones. I wouldn’t mind a normal Dana even though that is extremely niche.

Just found these on clearance for $4.95 each yesterday.

thx for the review. I had no idea they didn't have proton streams.

Hello there, it looks like you've put the terror dogs legs on backwards. There's a few vids out there that cover this common error.

Lucked out a week ago and scored the Spengler figure at Target. (only one I was after) Anyone else have issues with the Proton Packs attaching to the fig?

They only come with one stream so you can't cross them, it's obviously a safety feature.

I have 2 of the Ghostbusters and plan to get the other 2 soon. I don't really care for the Gozer figure...is it worth getting the other 2 mostly for the Build-a-Fig?

Lmfao at the face descriptions. Popeye enemy and creepy modern guy lol

Would you review the mezco ghostbusters one:12 versions?

awesome!

I can see you going thru all the figures to find just the right ones 😉

Hope you talk about He-Man Origins

Not only does having a piece of the terror dog in each box remove the possibility of an effects piece, but if you want 2 terror dogs you'll have to buy another set of figures

What are your thoughts on the "Kenner Classics" Ghostbusters re-release?

@retroblasting can you do videos on marvel legends

Ray looks like the human version of shrek

The proton streams I own all broke due to the weight not being supported by the wand, I don’t display them with it

You tried looking for the MOTU Origins line? Well that sounds like a neat video topic. Those Plasma figures look nice for the most part. Although the faces getting iffy and there not being enough accessories is kinda disappointing. I’m hoping there will be an accessory pack for the missing ones, but I haven’t really noticed much of those for collectors lines for most collectors lines lately, so the chances aren’t super high. Nicely done video overall 👍.

I might pick these up.

These are awesome! I have the 4 guys and Gozer...I need Dana Barrett to complete Vinz Clortho and the wave. I will say these are not the best 1984 Ghostbusters figures; I'd give that to the Mezco One 12: Collective ones, but for a retail release these Hasbro ones are great. Not to mention the Egon head sculpt is fantastic; probably my favorite head sculpt of the wave by far.

Well Done !

I can't believe that hasbro has made a massive ecto one but its to small for the bloody figures! It's in a 3.75 scale, and I'm gutted, I don't understand why they have done it this way, it's like a kick in the teeth as a ghostbusters collector, I feel let down to be honest.

I thought you weren't going to review modern toys on here?

It's a shame the toy company won't go the extra mile and make an actor one for these figures considering they make Star Wars Black Series vehicles for figures, well some of them. And yet Playmobil did the ecto-1 and the firehouse.

I’d repaint them for you! Free!

"Are you sure you're using that thing correctly?"

Time for Stan Solo to make extra plasma steams.

If the hands weren't sculpted with trigger fingers for some bizarre and pointless reason and the left wrists articulation went a different way, they would be able to hold the wands fine. Why on earth Hasbro gave them hard sculpted trigger hands is beyond me. Unless it was a mold from another toyline they used to save money?

can you guys please take a look at the Star Wars vintage series 2 you did a video about the first series 1 year ago and hasbro just came out with them thanks

Cool Ray has the same "Allergies kid/ you're a crack addict" eyes I've had all my life!

I bet the power streams will be packed in with other random figures in wave 2 or 3? I still like the Diamond figures.

There is a Louis Tully and second terror dog box set in this line called “Tully’s Terrible night” on eBay for about $100. It was a Pulsecon exclusive that isn’t very well known.

These are nice, but i recall seeing similar figures when the answer the call figures came out

Wish someone would do T2 and Aliens figures this good. I know Necca did Alien, but I need a Hicks for my Ripley lol

Michael, the look you're giving the camera at the end is disturbing. I worry about what effect Hasbro is having on your well being.

They look nice, I collect figures for display so I don't mind about if they don't have play sets, but when I try to get the ghostbusters I'll try to get the Mezco pack.

The Proton Stream issue seems to be one that has plagued GB toys since the beginning. With the Kenner and Diamond Select streams being the most fragile things in existence, to the Mattel and Hasbro streams only being included with certain figures.

I am thinking plan to buy Hasbro Ghostbusters

No Luis or Jeannine? *Edit: Maybe down the line? Regardless, good looking figures!

Never seen egon, Winston or gozer in stores!

Those MOTU origin figures won’t be coming to stores till the fall as far as I know, He-man and Skeletor were released online out of nowhere and scalpers got the lot of them, they come in stock online if your lucky for a couple minutes till the super fans that have been hitting the refresh button for days or the scalpers buy them up again, I suggest waiting till the fall

I saw Ray and Venkman at my local Target by accident then went home and purchased the rest of the figures on Amazon. I'm very happy with them. The likenesses are pretty spot on. Those Mattel figures are just embarrassing. Although I agree that it's ridiculous only Winston has a Proton Stream I am happy with these figures. Every fan should get pick them up

I'm curious on your thoughts for the newer SW Black series figures, with the new face scan technology. I steered clear of this line for years, but as of late 2018 I've abandoned 3.75 for 6". Hasbro's distribution remains problematic, but Black Series quality is now on par with some of the Japanese toy companies.

Someone is doing an insane 1/8 scale Ecto 1 that these would probably work with except I think the Ecto 1 is 300.00 plus

Hasbro is just protecting you from the danger of crossing the streams.

Last I heard the MOTU origins line wasn"t supposed yo be out until the fall. Wal Mart web site excluded of course.

The plasma series look kick ass. 😀👍

What about the Mezco 1:12 Ghostbusters?

I had no idea there were different head sculpts. I got the Shrek Ray and I'm not impressed by it.

At least you don't have to worry about crossing the streams, that would be bad.

When are you going too do a review of more vintage Toys 🧸 from the 1990’s like Godzilla King Of The Monsters Toys 🧸 from Trendmasters or Marvel Superheroes action figures (1990 version) from Toy Biz?

i picked up Ghostbusters Afterlife Peter Venkman the older version he looks real good Peter always been my favorite i like to get the Diamond select Real Ghostbusters. The plasma series Afterlife figures all the Ghostbusters new and old get proton streams

The last few seconds remind us all why ALL FIGURES SHOULD BE IN THE 1:18 SCALE!!!!

Gotta give it to Hasbro tho. This is smart marketing on their part. A lot of people feel like Winston is the lamest outta the bunch so now you’re forced to buy 4 of him.

Hiw big are they?
