Last month around this time (almost to the day) after posting about Party Time RGBs plates I came across another The Real Ghostbusters party plate. This plate (with party invitation!) was produced by C.A. Reed. It features The Real Ghostbusters in an action pose, seems like artwork that was used on other products. What are they so afraid of?Read More »
I was certainly the right age for both Ghostbusters Snack Pack (GB Inc. Blog Post) items and The Real Ghostbusters paper goods. Unless they weren’t sold at stores my parents would have shopped at or not available in mass quantities; I never had a Ghostbusters party using officially licensed paper goods. The only Ghostbusters food related paper items I can remember using were The Real Ghostbusters Hi-C lunch bags.
When I’m browsing that certain popular auction site and come across these types of items, it makes me feel at the least happy.Read More »
Did you ever wonder what The Real Ghostbusters would have been like if the series had been made for Japan (instead of originally the US) and done in Japan’s known anime style? We didn’t either, the talented Shamoozal had.
Not only are the Ghostbusters real, they’re from Tokyo.
What do you think? Would you have watched an anime Ghostbusters in the 1980s? I probably would have even when I wouldn’t have understood it. Either way visually The Real Ghostbusters was basically made in Asia anyway.

Since writing about that mysterious ’80s popular characters mail order catalog, ghosthead Lanny D remembered where we could order that catalog from, NOW comics The Real Ghostbusters title. That would make sense as I (or possibly with help) had to order that catalog from somewhere. Fortunately too, I scanned every issue from my NOW comics (Ecto-Containment Print Is Dead Page) The Real Ghostbusters collection for digital preservation to share with other fans.
I was going trough the scans and found an ad from Creative Characters.
I haven’t really wondered what The Real Ghostbusters figures could look like if Funko were to make them. I’ve been more concerned with trying to complete the actual Ghostbusters Movie Pops! (iRich) figures.
I did think by now we would have heard Funko could be releasing Janine, (Ghostbusters) Dana, (probably as Gatekeeper) and Louis. Again, probably as his Keymaster version.
While I’ve slowly been collecting Ghostbusters Movie Pops and thinking of more Ghostbusters Pops, ghosthead Austin Brooks was busy designing would be The Real Ghostbusters Pops!.Read More »
Ghosthead and toy collector JBlake shared corporate Kenner The Real Ghostbusters display images. The pictures were to show employees and retailers how The Real Ghostbusters merchandise should or can be displayed. I don’t personally recall seeing any of this at the chain toy stores I’d frequent (well as much as I could) during the ’80s.
I have a hard time believing I wouldn’t have remembered being at The Real Ghostbusters Ghost Center.Read More »
By now ghostheads (well most of us) have been reading IDW’s Ghostbusters/TMNT cross over mini series (GB Inc.) What if their was crossover artwork featuring both animated franchises? What could that look like? I never thought of that, fortunately for fans of both animated series Aaron Hazouri and Kirsty Swan did.Read More »
In the middle of November 2014 their was a (geographically speaking) a really local comic book show. Its kinda a con, the organizers call it a show. Unbeknownst to me, this same show was held last year in my town at the same place. As the Jersey Shore Comic Book Show was coming up I knew I’d be there with my Ghostbusters franchise and friends from a second New Jersey franchise.
I thought as this con was local, more fun, less kind of pressure then a major con I could mix up the equipment and bring (and wear) some of my Kenner The Real Ghostbusters toys.Read More »
I bought this Kenner Ghost Trap in 2011. It had never been open until February 10, 2012. Which is around when I created a photo album using former Ecto-Containment software. When I switched software and hosting companies the album didn’t make the move. I had always intended to share the pictures again. Two years later I have again.Read More »
Zim animation, (YouTube) are a talented group (as in more then one) of artists and animators who take ’80s and ’90s cartoon introductions and recreate them in 3D. You may remember over the summer when Zim animation released their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3D intro. You don’t? Well that’s in part because I don’t run a would be turtle site called The Lair. If The Real Ghostbusters never existed, I might.Read More »
Matt from Dinosaur Dracula has a new feature about Sears’ Christmas Wish Book from 1989. It advertised Kenner The Real Ghostbusters roleplaying and action figures. And a non electronic The Real Ghostbusters pinball game.
Among the The Real Ghostbusters toys Sears gave space to that holiday season included:
