    any word on when the fright features figures are supposed to be out? i figure the mildly cartoony look of those figures might go well with the ghostbusters transformers

    Theres a possibility that there was some huge shelf space prepared for this but, I think it was delayed in enough time.

    Personally, It was too much at once. My son wanted all of that basic stuff and I, the other. Poor wallet.

    Rubies is rolling their Halloween stuff to stores for roleplay. The trap now has a pedal and electronically opens. Its like a keyboard dampener pedal, though. The PKE is that same piece of shit.

    I'm wondering if they will make a terror dog 2 pack at some point, they have repacked a few BAFS as singles before.

    I didn’t snap a pic, but I saw the ghost trap and PKE meter toys at a local WM this afternoon. They looked fun and I played with the PKE for a couple minutes. Lots of cosplay potential there.

    I see EBay is flooded with the Real GB reissues. Even a pandemic can’t keep the scalpers at home lol. They look really nice, much better packages than the Star Wars ones. Worth keeping a set MOC.

    Probably makes it even easier for the scalpers. Less traffic on the street, less people to weave through at the store, cheap gas. If the stores are still stocking, it's scalper heaven out there right now.

    I forgot to look. The pedal is a generic, outsourced pedal for a sewing machine.

    Hoping Hasbro makes an Afterlife one. Its smaller (Unless Paul Rudd has giant hands.)

    Is the full size ghost trap part of Hasbro's roleplay line along with the nutrino wand?

    Ahh ok, thanks for the info. I imagine I can't expect it to be anywhere near the level of the Mattel prop one released a couple years ago, then.
