January 27, 2010 : Rounding out Ghostbuster Villians with Toys R Us Series 3!
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!).
Oh there’s gonna be a showdown at the Ok Corral tonight!
January 8, 2010 : The Best of Ghostbusters Minimates Wave Rates High on The PKE Meter
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.
December 22, 2009 : He’s Glowing, But He’s Got the Blues
The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man bank has been such a huge success that I decided to look into two variants. One will remain secret (for now), but the other one is here. He’s a glow-in-the-dark blue variant (similar to the Minimate we did for San Diego Comic Con). The head in the picture is the wrong one (the production piece will have the “happy” face), but the material prototype turned out so well that I had to share with you all.
