Another Ecto-1?
I’m thinking it’s a 1:12 '84 Ecto to scale with the Plasma series figures…hopefully tiers will unlock lights and a siren. And in my wildest dreams, a final tier unlocks a Janine figure. Hopefully Hasbro learned from the failure of the Ghostrider car and doesn’t wildly overprice it.
“C’mon, let’s run some red lights!”
If that hint isn’t obvious enough. I am just not looking forward to it being $500. If it’s under $200 then I will bite. However, if their Cantina playset is any sign of price, then I am out. Hasbro going for that last bit of change in our pockets.
I don’t want a bigger Ecto, I want the current sized Hasbro ones with high quality and metal fittings rather than chunky plastic.
And so sadly, when it comes to choosing between this and the Mondo RGB figures, my money is going to Mondo.
Depending on the price point I may reconsider if Hasbro adds a remote control function to it, a mini drone trap and a mini RTV. The mini versions of the drone and trap don’t have to be RC capable, but I don’t want to see a bunch of dirt thrown on what is going to be a very expensive toy.
The original Ecto would be nice but I would prefer something to the size of the Lego Ecto and the latest version from Empire. I don’t think the Ecto-cycle would be popular enough yet to warrant it’s own Has Lab project.
Like Haslabs Ghost project I could really see figures being advertised as unlockable rewards. As for bonus incentives I could see licence plates, and possibly even a set of keys made to look like what Winston would use to start the Ecto with. If we get Ghost figures, i’d imagine the sewer dragon, and Garaka being the top contenders with Slimer and the Pufts as respectable candidates. I can see the Pufts possibly being the same size as the Proton Pack pufts or in scale to whatever this Ecto is going to be.
Not gonna lie. Kind of dissapointed we don’t have anything related to Two in the box yet.
There is a FB post of a “hands-on” thing (not an event) of the PKE and the Trap. Hawk the wares you already have the $$ for. Geez. :whatever:
I doubt any HasLab will get me, they’re just all SO MUCH money…this one might come closest.
What are you talking about? They are showing off a nearly production complete Trap and PKE because people want to see an update. They won’t be selling any more of those.
Was talking about showing something they already had backed is all. There turned out to be just enough hands-on updatey video for me after all.
Based on the logo and the slogan… Radio Controlled Ecto One? (Pure speculation)
Just thinking out loud here. Does anyone think that Haslab will start off with an Ecto one base you could build off of? You get to choose which Ecto you want to build. Your backing will come with the accessories of your choice but you get the option of another parts package if you purchase more then one vehicle.
They could do something like
Ecto vehicle-399
parts package a Ghostbusters 1
parts package b Ghostbusters 2=roof crap with electronic were ready to believe you sign
parts package c Afterlife- dirty parts opposed to clean parts/gunner seat
parts package D-Frozen Empire-Drone trap on roof crap/gunner seat
It’s a cool idea but I don’t think they’ve ever done anything like that. It’s usually 1 item. Now, I could see them packaging in different roof racks for the 84 Ecto-1, Ecto-1A, and 2024 Ecto-1. Maybe toss in some rust/dirt decals to sorta replicate Afterlife.
Has there been any word about Hasbro doing any demonstrations, or announcements regarding this project, or two in the box for San Diego comic con?
They had a Ghostbusters live stream earlier. Here are clues they have for the next one. Edit: Sorry it’s a big picture.

That picture implies an Ecto-1A only, which is odd. I’m sure the tiers will include a GB1 roof rack, though.
“Expires Jun 16, 1989”. Sweet nod!
Hmm interesting
Yeah I would also wager an ECTO 1A but…the key and pass area nicetouch.
I could totally get on board with an Ecto 1 A! It just kinda seems like an odd choice for a Haslab, unless its 1:12 scale, in which case, why not do the original Ecto 1… Either way, I’ll probably end up getting whatever it is.
I think we all have enough Ecto-1’s. Lol. I’d be stoked if it’s an Ecto-1-a especially if the lights work like they do in the movie and it isn’t just decals. I was just thinking should we get something packaged along with it a giga meter would be kind of nice since they just did the trap and Pke-Meter.. If it’s stand alone like the Haslab Rattler I’d be content with action figures scaled to go with the Ecto. Concerning the tier rewards I think I speak for us all if they don’t include the hot beverage thermal mug and balloons would be disappointing.
