Hasbro has unveiled new 3.75" Ghostbusters action figures and a compatible 1/18 scale Ecto-1 playset, featuring a revamped design with retro-style livery and alterations to replicate the vehicle's appearance from the 1984 film. The figure set will include the original Ghostbusters team with detachable Proton Packs and additional accessories, and pre-orders for both the figures and Ecto-1 will begin on June 8th at around $44 for the figure four-pack and an expected price similar to its predecessor for the Ecto-1.
Hasbro unveils a 3.75" Ghostbusters four-pack of action figures and a retro-style Ecto-1, featuring characters from the franchise's 40th anniversary. The figures will include attachable Proton Packs and accessories, while the Ecto-1 will have a new livery mirroring the original '84 design and a removable gurney for storing the figures' equipment. Pricing and availability details are yet to be revealed, with more information expected on Ghostbusters Day on June 8th.
The upcoming Ghostbusters sequel was spotted filming in New York City, with the iconic Ecto-1 seen racing through the streets. The modified ’59 Cadillac features some noticeable changes, including additional red paint details and an updated roof rack. While the footage is most likely for the new film, it could potentially be used for next week’s Ghostbusters Day celebration. The sequel is slated to arrive in theaters this December, but may be delayed until spring of next year, according to Dan Aykroyd.
