    Guys, I am not referring to Ecto-tron and I never was. I am talking about the specific Ecto-1 vehicle, which does NOT transform.

    I'm in the same boat as you. Not sure what it's supposed to go with. I was just about to get it when I decided to check reviews and sure enough, it doesn't scale with the figures they have out. It's so weird.

    I'd really like to see a 1/12 scale car with the original movies deco still.

    Apparently they are supposed to release figures to scale with it. The only reference I have is PrimeVSPrimes review of it though.

    I didn’t even know that thing existed. But, I agree with you. It’s nice and all, but puzzling if it’s off-scale to the figures.

    Even the product description is unclear, but suggests figures scaled for it. Guess you could always buy and return later. 22887932-9324-4E63-BE75-94EBA5864D22.jpeg

    That's the one kingdom figure I've yet to see. Has anyone in south FL seen it?

    I saw one at cattlemen rd target across the utc mall, and another at fruitville rd target both a couple weeks back. Definitely gone but I know that they were on shelves and will probably be restocked in the next couple weeks. other than that, the targets ive been to further down south fl have every kingdom figure but cyclonus.

    Walmart on colonial and 75 had a crap ton of 86 deluxes at 6:30.
    They also had the new kingdom voyager exclusive variants.

    I handed those figures to the lady organizing the toy aisle and showed her how they were swapped out. she said she was going to take them to the manager and have them removed.
    So much for that, huh?

    Lol guess not, she must've had better things to do cause they were right next to the deluxes when I stopped by.
