And there are some real doozies in this series!

The series includes:

Courtroom Egon and Ray facing down the “toasted” Scolari Brothers: Tony and Nunzio
Egon and the ill-fated Titanic Captain
and my absolute favorite: “World of the Psychic” Peter and Vigo the Carpathian (plus a hairless kitty!).

The first AskDST of the twenty-teens is here with answers to all of your pressing Star Trek questions.  What are the odds of seeing a Phaser from Star Trek III?  When will DST tackle the new Star Trek movie?  Who would win in a fight - Kim Kardashian or the Obsidian Order?  The answers to these (and much more!) can be found after the jump. (more…)

For those who missed out on the first 2 Ghostbusters Minimates waves, fear not, the boys are back in town and back in the aisles of Toys R Us.  Composed of the best 2 packs from Ghostbusters Wave 1 and 2.  (with a few tweaks), returning in time to catch you up before the next Ghostbusters’ waves hit stores.

The wave consists of Library Ghost and Egon, Slimed Peter and Slimer (Clear), Ray and Staypuft and Luis Tully with Slimer.    As a bonus, the Clear Slimer coming with Slimed Peter now features the floating food deco, intended but unavailable in the previous release.  Also due to popular request, Louis Tully now features the Ghostbusters Movie 2 accurate uniform with corrected name tag.   Stay tuned as more 2″ full torso block shaped apparitions of your favorite Ghostbusters characters continue to materialize in toy aisles.
