Oh jeez… I prefer the colander aura video-analyzer look instead. Hopefully that’s what is underneath the [terror dog](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/minimates/terror-dog) head.

Good find. I don’t know that I will use or display it with that head very much, but I’m looking forward to seeing the likeness of the Louis head.

Wait … so, has this been pushed back? Will this be the club figure for 2012? Isn’t this year’s marshmallow ray?

Why is everyone panicking? On the facebook page it says “one of next year’s club ecto figures”. It sounds like they are saying that ALL the figures released next year are included in club ecto. No where do they say “exclusive”.

That’s how I read it as well. No idea where this “exclusive” idea came from.

yeah guys you’ve read far too much into this

Vinz/Louis is out next year, he is part of the ecto 1 subscription, but is available for sale on the site also

just like all the MOTUC figures, you can have a subscription or come on sale day and buy

Matty’s forum is a better place to get exact info from staff or Toyguru himself

Also to those saying he’s better with the colander head, he comes with 3 interchangeable heads, he’s only pictured with one that is all

they could include pictures of all the heads

but its a sneak peek…

we’ve seen two of the 3 heads now, this is to build suspense/drum up interest

Yeah, Agent Gibbs nailed this one. It’s just a sneak peek and everyone will get a shot at it. Looks like they did a great job too. Very happy with Matty on this one.

There’s the prototype with the three heads, pizza slice, popcorn jar and glasses. That painted prototype looks great, the stripe work is fantastic. I have 2 Club Ecto subscriptions, but I’ll probably be picking up an extra Louis or two on sale day, to maximize display potential!

I’m hoping that he’s shorter than the Ghostbusters, like Matty said he would be, but the painted pic shows different lower leg parts, so I’m a little worried about that.

I thought earlier that he is Club Ecto subs figure.New pic looks ok.

Yes, **this [Vinz Clortho figure](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/mattel/mattel-vinz-clortho-figure) is part of the Club Ecto-1 subscription**.

If you have **purchased a subscription, you will receive all 6 of the [6" figures](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/mattel/mattel-6-figures) that Matty is releasing** during the year, plus 1 figure that is an exclusive to this subscription ([Marshmallow Mess Ray Stantz](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/mattel/mattel-marshmallow-mess-ray-stantz)).

If you **did not purchase the Club Ecto-1 subscription** , **you can still purchase the 6 other figures** ([Vinz Clortho](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/vinz-clortho) / [Louis Tully](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/louis-tully) included), but you will have to sign on to [MattyCollector.com](http://MattyCollector.com) on sale days, and deal with their horribly slow servers, plus risk the figures selling out before you can get them.

Is everybody clear on this now?
