New Ghostbusters Figures

[teabelly83]

What Dragon suits would you be referring to, if you don't mind my asking? I'm also interested in finding the most screen accurate suits possible for my GBs. Any info would be much appreciated.

ill try find a pic of them, i bought them off another member ages ago, but fellow member astro zombie/jon bleached them out for me, ill try find pics of them. they are from a pilot fig i think.

but they are alot better in my opinion. they will look gr8 with the elbow pads and belt on then the accessories etc. im jst not 100% happy iwth the mattel suits. IF i were to keep the mattel suits, id def change the belt, elbow pads and boots.

I don't like the sculpt at all. And without that, why bother?

 

[CAZAFANTASMA]

You could give your money to Spencer (even more than you payed for the whole figure with body, suit, pack, trap and accesories) for a painted head!!

 

[Mesa]

accessories look fantastic. I guess those are worth the price alone. But without the head, and not having any motivation to kit one with another head, I'm out.

 

[snoop101]

That head does look very cartoonish.

 

[Bill Fremp]

I agree with the reviewer; the head looks better with the goggles on his head. And the gear is so sweet, I'll either deal with the sculpt or do something about it later. But skip it? No way.

Yeah, dunno what's up with those elbow pads or the enormous walkie-talkie, but those are things that can be easily upgraded. Looking forward to getting this guy. Kind of a stupid question, but are these guys going to be internet exclusives or can you pick them up at some place like Toys R Us?

Any pics you could post would be a great help. Maybe I'll be able to track them down on ebay or dig through my collection of older Dragon figs in storage... I'm sure there are a couple of pilots among them.

I agree about the Mattel suits... they seem a bit rough looking, at least compared to the sort of quality most of us here are used to. I really wish Hot Toys would do these guys! Who knows, with the new GB game out, they could release them as either Movie or Video Game Masterpieces.

Holy ^^^^!!
Man!! Ray looks great!!, well, the head looks better than expected, but in reality, I mean, the outfit and gear are impressive!!
Wohooo!! With Spenser's head, this will look amazing!!
Can't wait!!!

 

[snoop101]

With a pretty decent repaint this head actually wouldn't look to bad.

It's still a toss-up for me whether I'll get this or not. . .looks better than it did based on previous pics released, I think, but that's not saying much. Jesus those elbow pads suck.

 

[teabelly83]

i still think the head sculpt sucks, and yes so do the elbow pads. major

 

[Wor-Gar]

I find the outfit more disappointing than I was expecting, with those zipper tabs just sewn onto the suit. And the plastic white web belt is really cheap.

BUT.. the gear (proton pack and trap, etc) is just fantastic.

Still worth $60 for the proton pack, the trap, the boots (I believe they are unique so I might keep 'em after all), the gloves and the little bits here and there. The suit might be salvageable with a dye job and new elbow pads and some serious futzing... but just barely.

Prepare for a run on gray Dragon web belts.

 

[Sniper33]

still trying to decide if i should get the 12" figures or not. i dont have a replacement headsculpt so i would be left with the stock one, but that looks a tad goofy. Thing with these guys, if you miss one of them, then your collection will be pointless (unless you just get your favorite guy) without all 4.

 

[metaphorge]

The headsculpt bites, but I figured that in advance. Elbow pads and belt suck. Jumpsuit is disappointing but I think I can live with it with some weathering. Proton pack and trap are a home run. Will buy.

 

[teabelly83]

yeah im def getting these, just for the fact that they are 100% officialy licensed gb 12" figs!! crazy, yes, but they arefine to keep in a collection. plus i kinda like the packaging, could have been better but so could alot of things, buts it ok.

as for the figures, there really aint alot id use for my custom set other then the pack/traps, leg hose maybe aswel, but the suit, boots,belt and gloves are a no for me. and the heads..well...lol. altho i must admit, i do like the winston venkman and egon heads in a cartoony sort of way, but for the movie likeness and as close and as acurate as possible, im goin with spensers sculpts for my customs.

and wor, thats exactly why idont like the suit, it looks bad, the pockets and zipper fastening are fake and the elbow pads jst suck. and yeah id rather go for a fabric web belt off ebay. much more realistic.
