If any of the original cast members show up in the movie, it would be kinda cool to see figures of them too. Grey haired Venkman etc
Are we finally getting that Ghostbuster in a wheelchair toy?
Looks like Hasbro’s going to handle it. Read the article here http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/hasbro-produce-ghostbusters-toys-starting-2020-1233451.
Judging from the recent filming reports, I think there’s a strong possibility of them making RC ghost traps on wheels…
I have some hope with Hasbro but also some worries. Kids in general just don’t buy toys as much, Spirit has done well with the products they’ve released and hopefully will keep them in the event that Hasbro maybe doesn’t deliver RP items at the same level. I sadly don’t see them releasing general figure lines like star wars, I see it more like the diamond select lines or black series star wars where we have 6 inch figures aimed more at display. I would love to be way wrong however and see 3.75 inch figures that are readily available at general toy stores.
2016 toys languished on the shelves, but there were plenty of them for those few interested.
I have my doubts 2020 will have a HUGE assortment, but I do believe we’ll get new figures.
20 bucks says we’ll see “Classic” merchandise come out with the new stuff again.
I really do hope we get a $500 or so Proton Pack replica. They do a good job with some of their Force FX lightsabers, this should be easy for them.
A little tidbit I just came across:
Since Hasbro has this, I almost would bet it’s safe to say we’ll be seeing some “black series” type props like what they did with Lightsabers and Helmets for Star Wars. Probably re-releases of the Ecto-Goggles and PKE Meter for sure, if not the trap and maybe wand (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE).
Rumour has it Lego may be gearing up for a tie in with next years film;

I think a Lego game coming will be nice. I don’t think were going to get a new video game for the new film. Most movie games don’t happen like they did previously. There’s in universe games like Battlefront, Fallen Order Star Wars wise, Spider-Man for Marvel wise etc. We don’t really get direct movie tie in’s often so a Lego fun game with all film characters from 1, 2, 2020, ATC would be fun.

My 3 year old and I are foaming at the mouth for more playmobil sets.
I hear that. My dream world would feature a full gamut of all movie and cartoon Ectos by Playmobil! They’ve been magic so far.
Filled my heart with joy when he asked me why the RGB sets didn’t come with cartoon ghosts. He was also very confused as to why they make terror dogs but not Gozer. We actually switched the heads of the mummy and grim reaper to make it. Lol he’s a real chip off the old block!
Found this on Halloween Costumes…

Both my son and I would LOVE more Lego and Playmobile stuff. I’m worried about rights issues though (doesnt kenner have exclusive rights again). I’m worried that will effect Lego and Playmobile. I’d be ok with no new Playmobile sets personally, but I WANT some new Lego sets.
Please dear god , make LEGO Ghostbusters the video game playing through 1 2 atc and af. Please they already proved with Lego dimensions they can do it well for both the first movie and answer the call now stretched out to a full game and the new Lego Star wars game coming out proves there not against remaking stuff I’ve already made in the past.
I just really want LEGO Ghostbusters the video game
I agree, but is there a market for a full on game like that? Lego LOTR/The hobbit didnt do all that well as video game, and I think we can agree that’s a larger franchise.
Just a quick heads for everyone here, in the early 1990’s Hasbro purchased Kenner so they have access to the molds for the Real Ghostbusters toy line. I would imagine given the success Hasbro has seen reissuing the vintage Star Wars action figures they might try something similar with the Real Ghostbusters.
That’s a larger fan base but the franchise was more for adults at the time (not an insult) Plus The Hobbit didn’t have all the movies it left off last one.
Ghostbusters I always view as a family property. Like the Ghostbusters story pack for answer the call and level pack for the original both seem to sell out quick in stores. Lord of the rings failed with a cartoon Ghostbusters had multiple cartoons.
You could be right I just feel Ghostbusters walks that line of family friendly fun enough that Lego works. Lord of the rings is more dark and exposition heavy and does not lend itself to LEGO as well. Like they had to move part of the movie round just to make a game.
