Wonder why they’re going so hard on the Ecto Glows. Like, yeah, they’re the most valuable set from the line, putting them back out will sell (especially as a con exclusive), and making that copter that never got made is really cool, but doing some quick and easy variants to go alongside them? And not a Janine?

Have they revealed the price of the Ecto Glow set? The figues or the car?

No, not yet. But with SDCC around the corner, they might make a social media post or video with the details before the convention starts next week. I noticed Mezco, Mondo, and probably other toy companies have started doing so with their convention exclusives today.

I still can’t find a price for the 4 figure Ecto Glow set and they’re live at the show already. They’re already being sold on eBay anywhere from $200 to $300 for the set. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a show limit either, so sellers have multiple sets to scalp. Way to go, Hasbro…

One person said 90, another said 100. It was either facebook or twitter but I don’t have the links right now.

The Ecto Glow [Ecto-1](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/ecto-1) went up for pre-order but it’s locked for premium members only. I am so sick of this franchise nickel and diming us to death. Let me just order your stupid toy without all the lame hoops. I’m sick of this nonsense. What’s the point in premium membership when all I buy on there are Ghostbusters? I don’t want anything else from Hasbro. Oh, but shipping is free! So, I gotta spend $50 to buy a toy at $50 and that $50 is so I can save $10? They are clearly catering to the resellers with these. Absolutely dumb.

On the plus side, these are so hard to obtain that I’ll probably just not bother. It’s all FOMO.

I sent Hasbro a message earlier about the Premium lockout and I got back sort of a general response. However, in the message they sent me, they state that all of the convention exclusives that don’t sell out during SDCC will go on Pulse starting on August 1st. Fingers crossed that the 4 pack of Ecto-Glow figures won’t sell out during the show and they’ll be available for purchase online. Keep your eyes peeled on August 1st.

Went ahead and ordered the Ecto Glow [Ecto-1](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/ecto-1). I think it’s really great to be offered something that was never released, but easily could have been back in the day. The bad thing is now I will feel compelled to acquire the rest of the line!

</div>

Since the Ecto Glows are all looking to be convention exclusives, minus the Ecto 1, what guesses do you think they will be released at? I’m guessing the Slimer/Stay Puft will be NYCC, but the Louis/copter could be any as there are a number of bigger cons in the springtime from Emerald City to C2E2. Does Hasbro ever come to any of those?

I’d rather have the premium wall, or a stop measure to prevent scalpers from buying them out within the first five seconds or minutes of availability.

Not sure that would make a difference. Chances are the scalpers will have a premium account.

Real talk - happy for those who like and want to collect Ecto Glows and any new collectibles and RGB/GB merchandise is good for the franchise.

We’ve skipped some other waves I would’ve been more into like [Super Fright Features](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/kenner/super-fright-features), [Power Pack Heroes](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/kenner/power-pack-heros), or the alt paint job [Fright Features](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/kenner/fright-features) and feel like the current Ecto Glow notoriety is definitely geared more towards toy collector’s than the average GB fan. Pat at Hasbro has done a phenomenal job on the artwork and design of the new toys. If it were 1991 - as a kid I’d definitely want that Ecto-1. But realistically how many fans will display multiple variants of the [Kenner](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/kenner-10410) Ecto?

Following all the community channels, Ecto Glow has been hyped by people who clearly care about the toys and want the franchise to be profitable. So maybe keeping them exclusive and a prestige product is for the best. If they release as a standard line I might pick up an Egon but personally I cannot justify dropping £150-200 obtaining the Ecto Glow set and Ecto-1 edition when it’s roughly the same price as a Mondo set. Hasbro get a cut of those too so hopefully the IP is still profitable for them, but I could see Ecto Glow being the end of the Kenner reissue series if they’re expecting big sales.

Am I way off? What is the consensus with Ecto Glow here?
