Mattel Toyline In 2009 MattyCollector.com announced they would make one of the largest figure lines dedicated to Ghostbusters. Scheduled for a release in the Fall of 2009. The line will feature a series of 12inch figures based on the movie characters, and a 6inch line dedicated to both the movie characters and The Real Ghostbusters! This is shaping to be the biggest thing to happen in Ghostbusters Action figures since Kenner's RGB line. This page will feature exclusive first looks from the New York Comic Con, and the San Diego Comic Con. Any other pics released by Mattel will be placed here. Once the line is officially released we will archive and document this soon to be amazing Ghostbusters Figure line. |

First Look and Review of Mattel's Egon Spengler
I went to this years San Diego Comic-Con and got my hands on
MattyCollector.com's first Ghostbusters Classic, Egon Spengler. It is a
great figure and a must have for any Ghostbuster fan. They are still
availible as I write this, but I don't expect them to last for long. I
made a video of my thoughts showcasing the figure below.

NYCC 2009 First Look At the 2009 New York Comic Con we got a first look at Mattel's Ghostbusters line. Just days after the official press release that Mattycollector.com was going to release a new action figure line based on the Ghostbusters movie and The Real Ghostbusters. They displayed one complete 12inch Ray Stantz. 3 large scale models of the 6inch line, and 2 prototypes from the 6inch line. The figures looked great, the detail was stunning. Look at those proton packs! Even though this was just a taste of things to come, it already had me really excited for this figure line. Something ghostheads have been asking for decades. Figures actually based on the movie! Here you can see the 6inch prototypes of Egon and Slimer next to their large scale counterparts
The large models show the great articulation and detail, far more than NECA would have done.
It looks like the 12incher's Proton Pack is removable. I wonder if the 6incher's will be as well?

Here you can see that the 6inch Slimer is in Scale with Egon which is awesome! Ray  Egon
