I don’t know if this has ever been discussed before; forgive me if it has. I found this in an internet search to fill some holes in my collection, and I thought I would share: [Action Figure Stands, Doll Stands, Glass Domes, Zip Lock Bags, Star Wars Action Figures Toys Starwars](http://www.theearthtoymall.com/ecpamoreghpr.html)

Also, if anyone is trying to get rid of any of their old GB toys, please let me know; I’m constantly looking for certain items. : )

Yeah, it looks better than the one that got released, in my opinion. Must not’ve been cost-effective with all the hoses and such.

Pretty cool! The color and [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) stickers are kinda off putting though haha Looks almost like the “lights” could shoot water or something, who knows. Wish we could see the gun. Lot nicer than the one piece purple plastic with the gun that shot out the “slime”. Sadly I still forget how tiny that thing is…haha good thing we can build props for big kids 😃 Mine’s been in storage and the GB2 sticker is peeling off constantly. Got it out recently for this crazy comparison pic.

It just dawned on me to question the authenticity of the piece I posted a link to. Is it real? The other prototypes look real enough.

That’s what I was thinking. It is admittedly a bit odd looking. Who knows! :whatever:

if its real, they obviously scrapped it because the purple one was much cheaper and easier to make, basically a single hollow shell like the [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) - using the same decal from the pack doesnt make much sense though…

ps: someone here should buy those pack labels and scan them, for the good of the community…

If I had been working at [Kenner](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/kenner-10410) during the RGB years ( 1986-1991), I would have worked hard to get the [Slime Blower](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/slime-blower) toy to look just that rather than the one we ended up with. While the finished toy was fun to play with, it would have been nicer to have it spray water or have a better color scheme.

Speaking of which does anyone else find it funny that other than the Ecto 1A and the Ecto Charger Kenner really did not take advantge of tying into the release of [Ghostbusters II](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-ii-activision) like they could have ?
