I wouldn't mind another Ghostbusters Fan First stream too...this time however I will not fall back into my youth days and buy action figures again. I have a full diorama of the final battle with Gozer and when it comes to pivotal moments in Ghostbusters history to display, this is it. However, if Hasbro has the guts to release the good old Ecto in 6-inch scale, that will be a must buy. And any roleplay collector's replicas for sure. Sometimes I still have a hard time to grasp that Afterlife gave us the Spengler wand and pack. Incredibly good. If Firehouse gives us new goggles and of course, a trap, no matter what kind, that's an instant buy. And new stuff. Give us cool new equipment.
Do you think they'll reveal anything before Pulse con Sept 30th - Oct 1st?

Happy to see what could be the filmmakers addressing the criticism that Ghostbusters is a comedy and should use comedic actors.Agreed, James should be great in this one. Patton is always great, and I loved seeing him voicing Mooglie in that one VR game they did a couple years ago. Also agree on the point that the film should definitely be more comedic, although I understand why Afterlife was more dramatic, given the fact that it was a legacy project based around Egon/Harold Ramis. I'm still glad they managed to work in quite a bit of comedy in that film, especially some really good bits.

I do wish the Walmart Traps were still around. With the right mods, they really did look great.Chicken, He Clucked wrote: ↑March 24th, 2023, 9:19 am Prematurely excited at the prospect of new Hasbro toys and tie-ins.Maybe at 1027?

I'm curious though, why news articles refer to this as "Ghostbusters Afterlife 2" or "Ghostbusters Afterlife Sequel" or on one occasion "Ghostbusters 5" instead of "Ghostbusters 4"?

Are they new gbs? Or just supporting roles?

We can but hope!I don’t get this idea “Ghostbusters can’t be sombre”(I’m not saying you specifically are saying that but so many others have). Or that it’s somehow wrong for it to have sombre moments. I’ve seen so many say they didn’t like how the movie ended on a sad note(which I disagree with. I think it was rather hopeful and uplifting).
