I was at SDCC this year (my first time) but since I was busy working at the Stern pinball booth I wasn’t able to pick up a Ghostbusters button Factory Entertainment was handing out. It’s just the no-ghost logo with a yellow trim and “factoryent.com” written around the edge.
If anyone has an extra at a reasonable price, I’d be interested in procuring one. It has become my hwite hwale.
Thank you.
And how about that nutrona wand, eh? Sure, it feels a little cheap and I broke it after flipping switches for 5 seconds, but man, what a cool toy.
I think he’s talking about Mattel’s strange production choice for the flip switches. As we saw on the Trap they’re effectively a plastic toggle switch activating a standard slide switch, so they’ll be more fragile than if Mattel had actually used real SPST/DPDT switches.
The abuse the prototypes received over the weekend will be a factor, as is people throwing the switches thinking they’re real metal ones.
Well I didn’t “break” it but I flipped three buttons in the sequence the woman at the booth showed me, then in reverse order. The clear tip didn’t retract when it was off and it didn’t light back up. I could have sworn I did everything in the correct order but for some reason things were going. THe piece was left in tact, but needed some kind of reset.
