Nope, no luck so far.

I keep having the feeling that it's somehow related to Walt Kelly's Pogo, but have found no figural representation of those characters that are anywhere close.

But I suppose even eliminating all of the things that it is NOT technically counts as progress.

I remain hopeful, though. Perhaps another dedicated fan will figure it out and share the info.

I once thought the true ID of Ray's library coat or Venkman's office radio were impossible to find, until Dr. Raymond Stantz and kaison showed photos of theirs and helped me redefine my search terms. Now I own both.

As for the white rabbit tail...

I think it might just be a highlight.

Dusting off this old thread, full of broken picture links.

So, I've held off on buying the DST figures. I just didn't like the sculpts or the paint apps, and the price was also a factor.

But I did really want those diorama sections.

You might wonder what I would need them for, with no figures.

Oh, how about the old NECA Gozer and Terror Dogs? And this awesome temple door made by Venky.

A few days ago, I saw a post by a friend on Facebook saying he was wanting to sell JUST his diorama pieces. I sent him a PM, we struck a mutually agreeable deal, and a few days later I get a parcel with all the dio parts from the Series 1 and 2 figures.

It was somewhat fitting that the sender's address was on Fifth Avenue in NYC.

Had it been from Central Park West, though, that would have been too perfect.

I dug up this thread to make a different post and saw the above discussion from back in 2014.

Happy to report that finally 'another dedicated fan' did 'figure it out and share the info'.



Big thanks to Joseph Gallina for sharing the results of his hours-long search of ceramic turtle listings.

And now for the post I initially intended to make here...

I recently purchased a custom-painted Egon recast head from John Mowry on Facebook and he threw in a custom ghost trap too.

I put it on a spare Stantz body.

I haven't yet modified the nametape, I only digitally tweaked it on the photo.

[I was first going to put this in the Hasbro Ghostbusters thread under Collectibles, but being that it's more about a custom, I decided to just put it in with my own Collection pics.]
