Scared Diamond Select Toys Mr. Stay-Puft Coming To New York Comic Con

Posted on by

Diamond Select Toys has revealed their New York Comic Con “Scared” Mr. Stay-Puft exclusive. Ghostheads would immediately recognize that while this figure is being marketed under The Real Ghostbusters brand, the only time Mr. Stay-Puft was scared is right before the Ghostbusters ruin Gozer’s night.

Opinion: I don’t own the “regular” non exclusive version. I really like the idea behind this affordable toy and collectible. I’m not sure why (other then deceiving a fanbase) Diamond Select Toys couldn’t market this under the Ghostbusters brand.

I safely presume as an exclusive ghostheads who aren’t attending NYCC will have no chance of buying “limited to 500 pieces” Stay-Puft at $20 USD.

That’s toy collecting for you. =/

Ghostheads had already known Chronicle Collectibles are making high end (Ecto-Containment Blog Post, July 29, 2019) The Real Ghostbusters collectibles. During last week’s San Diego Comic Con, Chronicle Collectibles revealed their upcoming to scale Ecto-1.

Toys news site, ToyArk took photos as part of their SDCC coverage. Overall this is The Real Ghostbusters series Ecto-1 I remember. As the figures aren’t posable, it stands to reason “the car” won’t have doors that open. Either way this Ecto-1 would be great for display.

Details, pricing, and a release date haven’t been revealed. This post and/or a new one will be updated when more information is available.

Chronicle Collectibles The Real Ghostbusters Figures

Posted on by

Diamond Select Toys produced a couple of series (Diamond Select Toys Blog Post) featuring The Real Ghostbusters figures. Although posable, they don’t quite capture, (from what I’ve seen of them) “the Kenner feel.” A reason I don’t own any of them.

On a higher end collector market, Chronicle Collectibles is producing all 4 The Real Ghostbusters figures along with Slimer. The bad: They’re more like statues, total cost, near $600 USD*, and Slimer is exclusive to buying the set. “Figures” without Slimer can be bought individually. *Chronicle Collectibles offers monthly payment plans.

Press release after the jump.

Ghostbusters II Select Janosz Figure

Posted on by

Although not a 3D figure, Diamond Select Toys has a mock up of Vigo’s right hand man, Janosz Poha! Janosz has never had an action figure, not like this. Without checking, I’m pretty sure Peter McNicol has been immortalized as a Minimate.

Hopefully that scaled down Vigo painting will be one of its accessory. Thanks to Instagram user wrestlingcomics2k15 we also get a better look at the Ghostbusters HQ diorama. Which bares some resemblance to Kenner Ghostbusters Firehouse.

During February’s New York Toy Fair Diamond Select Toys gave ghostheads their first look (GBI Blog Post, February 16, 2016) at Ghostbusters Glass Tumblers.

Where I wrote: (Am I suppose to quote myself?)

Depending on your age you may remember licensed character glassware. Which may have been part of a food promotion, (for a price) maybe from a gas staton, mail away, or easy as buying in store. Their was a time depending on geographic location their were Ghostbusters character glassware. Same for Ghostbusters II.

DST knows their audience (and if you’ve seen or have their BTTF glasses) and will be coming out with 4 different Ghostbusters glasses. With art that reflects the characters. These glasses also include other iconic characters and themes from Ghostbusters.

I’ve been talking about Diamond Select Toys upcoming 7″ Ghostbusters figures since (GB Inc) New York Toy Fair. With additional information added to Ghostbusters Firehouse.

The third figure, “check on the little guy,” Louis Tully as Vinz Clortho! Continue reading →
