I have been collecting the MattyCollector Ghostbusters stuff with caution. I can’t afford to go whole hog and get everything, so I’m picking and choosing. (And you still got Walter Peck?! you’re probably asking yourself) Well yes, I really wanted the containment unit for display. Check out my pics and review below.
I have to really pick and choose which figures I buy on MattyCollector.com, this was one I decided I needed, and after having it a few days, I know I made the right decision. Check out my pics and review.
The Angry Video Game Nerd (a.k.a James Rolfe) put together this awesome Ghostbuster Location Tour Video.
ArtAsylum posted pictures of the Ghostbusters Minimates covered in Marshmallow:
Ghostbuster Minimates Covered in Marshmallow Goop!
Although I don’t suggest actually EATING these Minimates, I do suggest checking them out! The new set includes the never seen before Janine Melnitz and the crabby Walter Peck!
Bonus? The snarky Walter Peck comes with his own marshmallow goop headdress! So you can decide if he’s being good: No goop head, or if he’s being annoying: Slop on some goop!
MattyCollector posted a Ghostbusters update on Facebook :
Hey Slime Fans,
I wanted to jump in and give a quick update on what is going on with the GB line in 12″ and 6″ scale. We’ve had a few delays in release dates, but all six 6″ figures and the Peter and Winston 12″ figures are still set for release in 2010.
Orignally we had intended for a new 6″ figure to ship ever 2-3 months. But, inevitably due to circumstances well beyond our control we had a few hickups (this is why we don’t do preorders for any of our lines!). But we are back online now and 6″ Walter Peck is scheduled to hit Mattycollector.com in May. This will be followed by Slimed Peter in June and Labcoat Ray in Aug.
12″ Peter will hit in April followed by Winston in Aug.
We’re running a bit behind but by the end of the year we should be caught up and ready for even more Ghostbuster fun in 2011!
There will be three more 6″ figure for 2010 yet to reveal plus a really great SDCC item that will knock your socks off! The Ghostbuster fun has only yet begun – only on Mattycollector.com!

I’m amazed at how creative some people are. Over on the Ghostbusters Fan website, Jack Rossi created the Wii Remote Proton Pack. The remote is built into the wand allowing him to experience the process of actually busting ghosts.

I just got back from the 2010 Toy Fair in New York City… and I saw lots of cool stuff. As I’m hashing up these videos, playing with the swag I picked up, and trying to add written descriptions of what I saw… let me take a break from that and give you the Essential Seven Cool Things I Saw at the 2010 Toy Fair.

James Rolfe aka the Angry Video Game Nerd is working on a Ghostbusters location tour. He put up this teaser video yesterday. No set date for when the video will be completed, but if its anything like his Rocky location video, you can bet it will be a lot of fun. Mr. Stinkhead and I visited the Ghostbusters firehouse a few years ago. It’s really fun to be near the Ghostbusters headquarters.
