As well as re-releasing the Ghostbusters with new and fun features. These were really funny and by squeezing their legs they would get a scared look on their face. One of the most notable things to come out of the Kenner Ghostbusters line was the Fright Feature figures. The later waves really expanded the line. Stay Puff Marshmallow Man was a great figure and his larger scale made him seem like a real threat to the Ghostbusters. The first wave also have two larger figures in the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man and Slimer or as he was called "The Green Ghost" it's pretty weird why they decided to call him the Green Ghost, but all us kids back then called him Slimer. As a kid you could buy just one action figure, but in that package you get not only the Ghostbuster, but also a ghost and a proton pack for him to catch a ghost with. As well as this each figure came with a really nice proton pack that had a proton beam sticking out of it. And to make it even sweater each Ghostbuster came with their own individual ghost. And a tremendous job was done in replicating the way that they looked in the animated series. The original wave consisted of the four Ghostbusters Peter, Ray, Egon and Winston. The first wave of Real Ghostbusters action figures was a huge hit. It would be Kenner who would make the first Ghostbusters action figures in 1986 and they would be released around the world in 1987.
#EXTREME GHOSTBUSTERS TOY COLLECTION MOVIE#
The first Ghostbusters movie released in 1984 was what introduced us to Peter, Ray, Egon and Winston, but it was the 1986 animated series called The Real Ghostbusters that gave us the most nostalgic Ghostbusters toys.

Without a doubt if you grew up in the 1980's then you will have very fond memories of the Ghostbusters. Along with other toys based on the classic Ghostbusters properties, pre-orders for some of the figures are now live, and you can find out more information and see photos of these rad collectibles by heading on over to the official website for Walmart.Ghostbusters is one of the most beloved franchises from the 1980's. I would personally expect to spend at least $60 bucks on these guys, as you've got to at least get all four members of the team. These Ghostbusters toys will only be available at Walmart when they go on sale this spring with a suggested retail price of $14.99. It's certainly wonderful that we'll soon be able to revisit the original Ghostbusters timeline with an all-new sequel, though for some longtime fans, nothing can ever replace the original movies, or even the classic animated series adaptation. Directed by Jason Reitman, son of original director Ivan Reitman, the movie will primarily follow new characters, though Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson will all be reprising their classic roles. A sequel series, Extreme Ghostbusters, would later air another 40 episodes in 1997.Ī lot of this amazing new merchandise based on the Ghostbusters series is coming out now as Sony is preparing to relaunch the franchise this summer with the release of the new sequel Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Though young fans of the series loved seeing the show on television, the Real Ghostbusters toys and other merchandise were perhaps just as popular. A big hit with Ghostbusters fans, the series was very successful, lasting for seven seasons between 19. Replacing the original actors, the show featured the voice talents of Lorenzo Music and Dave Coulier as Peter, Maurice LaMarche as Egon, Arsenio Hall and Buster Jones as Winston, and Frank Welker as Ray and Slimer. While animated series adaptations of popular movies didn't typically come out very well during that era, The Real Ghostbusters was a major exception. Meanwhile, Slimer comes with pizza, steak, and watermelon to snack on, while the Stay Puft Marshmallow doesn't come with anything extra. Most of the figures come with their own special accessories as well, with the Ghostbusters coming with a proton pack, proton blaster with stream, and their own unique ghosts to bust. Their green and gluttonous pal Slimer is also included along with the biggest baddie of the series, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Six figures in total will make up this new set, with four of those obviously including Ray Stantz, Peter Venkman, Winston Zeddemore, and Egon Spengler. The toys were revealed last weekend at New York Toy Fair 2020 and images of the figures have since made their way online. Reminiscent of the original action figure line from Kenner, the new Real Ghostbusters figures come from Hasbro as a part of the company's Ghostbusters Kenner Classics line. New retro-style action figures based on The Real Ghostbusters are coming to Walmart this spring, and they're sure to excite any former '80s kid who has memories of playing with these guys as a child.
