I agree. For reasons unknown, these figures are more of an “inspired by” RGB interpretation, rather than a screen-accurate one. Not only are the colors off on the equipment, but the sculpts are _completely_ different from what you see on the show as well. I’m passing on these “retro” figures completely… but hey, that’s one more available set for someone else who digs em.

I don’t like that Egon is holding a [Kenner](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/kenner-10410) [PKE Meter](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-pke-meter) instead of a RGB cartoon PKE…

My Q is, are these a GBfans exclusive only? Like no ToysRus? Or do you get them before the stores? What about Mattys site? No? I’m confused. I hate the toys, but of course I’ll support the cause and buy them 🙂

its a solution that requires no skill to do, regardless if they shouldnt have to or not. if a 1/4" [pke meter](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-pke-meter) antenna is a major issue why they arent buying, maybe they need to evaluate how their money is spent.

I think they’re really good fun, and an interesting and different take on the RGB franchise. I’ll definitely be picking them all up through GBFans.

Something to bear in mind re: ghosts is that these figures are spiritually (ha!) inspired by the Mego toys, which were always human-shaped and in cloth outfits. If they stick to that, there might not be a whole lot of ghosts from the series they could produce.

Always cool to see new merch. But I would defiantly rather see “figures” rather then “dolls”.
