[![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/1/71d8ad53da192665f47e9d444fd4c782c7334441.jpeg)](http://www.gbfans.com/images/news/timelife-package-big.jpg) Time Life has the [Real Ghostbusters DVD](http://www.rgbondvd.com/) boxsets ready to ship! Those of you who did the Pre-Order will be getting free FedEx shipping, and should be getting your [Complete Collection](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/releases/complete-collection) next week. Luckily, I was able to snag my copy this week and give it a look over. First and foremost… this thing ROCKS. The packaging is amazing. We all knew the Steelbook packaging would be very cool and worth the extra time and effort spent into getting it together. The artwork is great, and the quality is supurb. The Collection will look great sitting ontop of your TV, or on your Shelf! Taking a look at the DVDs in just the short amount of time that I have spent with them so far has shown that a lot of time and effort has been placed into getthing these things made. The menus have some animations in them, as wel as artwork and graphics. The first DVD any [Real Ghostbusters](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/the-real-ghostbusters-activison) Fan should pop in is the Bonus Features disc. On it you will find the original Promo Pilot as well as opening and closing credits, introductions, extended interviews and more. If you happen to place the disc in your computer you will find several storyboards and other cool files in PDF format. The special features on each of the discs are very cool. Not only do you get every episode of the [Real Ghostbusters](http://www.gbfans.com/real-ghostbusters/), and [Slimer! and the Real Ghostbusters](http://www.gbfans.com/slimer-and-the-real-ghostbusters/) digitally remastered, you get episode introductions from the team that worked on the cartoon, interviews, commentary and a whole lot more. Right now I’m in the middle of watching the episode “[Knock Knock](http://www.gbfans.com/real-ghostbusters/knock-knock/)” with just music and sound effects, and it is very cool to be able to hear the original music and some foley artists at work! Time Life has been generous enough to give me a copy to GIVEAWAY to one Lucky Ghostbusters Fan. Details on how to win can be found here: [http://www.gbfans.com/contest/](http://www.gbfans.com/contest/) So please stay tuned to Ghostbusters Fans for more information. If you still need to purchase a copy, please do so immediately! [http://www.RGBonDVD.com/](http://www.RGBonDVD.com/) ---

Mine shipped thru FedEx yesterday!! 🙂 Not only that, I got a tracking number too. My box set is supposed to be delivered on Tuesday. It just left Memphis a few hours ago and is on it’s way to me here in the Chicago area as we speak 😃 I really can’t wait to actually see it for myself. I have seen pretty much only the first season, plus a little toward the end of the series run when they used to have it on in syndication so most of it will be all new for me. They sure don’t make cartoons like this anymore ☹ I couldn’t pass up a chance to have one of the best cartoons from the 80’s-early 90’s. I’d be kicking myself later wishing I had if I didn’t order it. ---

So I’ve had some time yesterday to really watch a lot of episodes and content on the discs, and it has been great. Most of the episodes are in really good shape, with a few that have some scratches on the film transfers (not that is affects viewing, you can just see them if you pay attention). The last disc in each volume has some special features like Featurettes which are great.. and if you have it in a DVD-ROM, you will beable to access Scripts in PDF form submitted by Paul @ [Spook Central](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/fans/websites/spook-central)… speaking of that… I’m really surprised at how much time and effort went into this project by even some of the fans in this community. I flipped open the book that accompanies the package and saw a lot of fans listed under the credits. (Even my name!). So a big thank you goes out to all of the Ghostheads that worked on the project! I’m sure Time-Life an Andy couldn’t have done it without you guys. Ofcourse thank you to Jeff at Time-Life and everyone else who has been so helpful and devoted to getting this thing off the ground. Everyone needs to have this thing in their collection. ---

AJ, do you know how long this set will be available to buy? did they produce X amount and that’s it or will they continue to produce these for a few years as long as they keep selling? ---

I read initally, when they announced the project, that they would be VERY limited in number and that if you wanted one, you needed to watch for the pre-order stuff and order fast or you’d be out of luck. But with the response to this being so great who knows if they will still keep it limited or produce a lot more copies of it. We won’t really know until we see how it sells and what Time-Life says. That was why I pre-ordered when I did, I didn’t want to be in the same spot wondering if I could still get one. I really hope you are able to get one, my friend. Everyone who wants this set should be able to get one but we’ll see. ---

Kingpin- With the “music/sound fx” only option, do you think we just came a step closer in editing together the full RGB theme?!! ---

> [@Mike\_D](#): > > With the “music/sound fx” only option, do you think we just came a step closer in editing together the full RGB theme?!! It is possible. So far the best episode I’ve “listened” to.. has been Ragnorok and Roll. It has the option for Music / Foley Only.. and has been really good. There is ofcourse background nosies mixed in.. like the wind blowing, [proton packs](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) firing.. etc. But it makes it a whole lot better. Since you did say RGB Theme… the pilot episode has the full theme song. It is basically like a music video for [the Real Ghostbusters](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/the-real-ghostbusters-activison). There is also an alternative theme song included on the [bonus disc](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/releases/complete-collection/bonus-disc) (as well as all the menus). Sounds very cool! ---

Depending on what episodes have the isolated music and audio effects, we should be a step closer. In a perfect world, all episodes from Series 1 to 4 would have this option, but we’ll just have to see. It means, we might get the _“I ain’t afraid of no ghost/oh I hear he likes the girls”_ bit, AKA the bit that only showed up if it was a very long bust, depending on what episodes have this option. So far, there’s two or three episodes I know of where this bit had little to no audio effects over it: **[The Revenge of Murray the Mantis](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/the-revenge-of-murray-the-mantis)** **[When Halloween was Forever](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/when-halloween-was-forever)** **[Janine’s Genie](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/janines-genie)** **Elementary, My Dear Winston** And these are subject to how much audio is still on the trak. This alternate theme you mention AJ, just in what way is it alternate? Is it instrumental only? Is it full lyric? Is it one we’ve never heard before?
