Ghostbusters General Thread

Got my Winston and Sandman in.

If you have the other two sets, you know what you're getting here. Very nicely done, but would have preferred perhaps a smiling head for Winston, rather than "Rather be anywhere else" or "Stereotype of the Angry Black Man".

My favorite part of the set is actually the Rosebud ghost.

For the price point, they really should have come with 3 or 4 heads. Peter and Egon are at least okay with the two expressions, Winston felt uninspired and I can't remember what Ray is coming with. Even Peter though could have used something to capture his sarcasm, or a face with a disgusted look for interactions with Slimer. I'm sure they plan on doing variants with new portraits, but I'm not buying a $100 variant that I don't really want just to make Winston smile.
 
I don't think so. Most of their releases strike me as a be-all, end-all approach (especially the limited ones) where they aim to pack-in everything you could possibly want or need. The Ghostbusters feel like outliers here.

That's very lame then. I went in on this set because I knew there wouldn't be more offerings like this from other companies. This would be the singular chance to have great versions in my collection. It's a shame they leave a bit to be desired. That they're just short of perfect.

Got Winston and Sandman this week. These look great, but I’m struggling figuring out how to display them. The cardboard ghosts are taking up a lot of space. Obviously going to have to give them a full display cube area pretty soon.

Also, have we heard timing on Janine? I honestly kind of hope she’s not for a while. Mondo has animated Superman this week and X-Men animated Beast is this week.

She was supposed to go up last month. If I had to reckon: end of this month, early March.

Looks great, just need a little extra room for them. I'm fine with Janine being delayed as I'm still trying to figure out how she'll really fit into a display since I don't really care about her gigantic desk much less want to store the thing. Fortunately I only wanted the 4 Busters and her, so I'm happily out of this line once she's done.
 
On I think the latest stream Hector at Mondo mentioned they moved a bunch of preorders around as they tried to soften the blow to everyone's wallets. I'm assuming Janine was moved for that reason. I bet she still goes up sometime in Q1.
 
I'm glad all I get from Mondo is these RGBs! They are already on the high end of what I'm used to paying for figures, and I'm only in because I know it's a very finite kind of collection, and they're the only game in town. Their quality is great, but I gotta draw the line here. While I think the MotU 200X figures look stellar, I at least have the Mattel figures to scratch that itch.
 
Yeah, I'm good with just the four. If they do a Stay Puft and he's not grossly expensive (and I'm sure he will be) then I might grab that for something like a centerpiece for the display, but I'm all set with Janine, Louis, and the rest. I collect their X-Men and those are really kicking my ass. Thankfully, that team is so close to being complete and then I can bow out.
 
I still have my Mattel Stay Puft! Not showing any noticeable deterioration, either.

I skipped all of the big ghosts from Mondo. They look fantastic, but I just don't have the room, and at $100 each, I had to go for the more affordable option.
