Monday, October 26th, 2009

Dan Aykroyd and his father, Peter, appeared on this morning’s TODAY show on NBC.  While discussing Peter Aykroyd’s new book entitled “A History of Ghosts: The True Story of Seances, Mediums, Ghosts, and Ghostbusters“, Al Roker asked Dan Aykroyd about the possibility of Ghostbusters 3.

Ray Stantz 6″ and 12″ Action Figures Going Fast on MattyCollector.com

Ray Stantz MattyCollector Action Figure

If you weren’t already aware, the wonderful folks at Mattel (via MattyCollector.com) have brought every Ghostbusters fan’s dream to life by announcing a line of 6″ and 12″ Ghostbusters action figures bearing the respective likeness of Ernie Hudson, Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray.

Although MattyCollector announced a limited edition 6″ “Slimed” Egon Spengler during San Diego Comic Con this year, the line officially begins with 12″ and 6″ versions of Ray Stantz.  There have been several reviews of the action figures including this Action Figure insider review of 12″ Ray Stanz which includes some great photos of the removable / light up Proton Pack. I leave you with video reviews of 6″ and 12″ Ray Stantz from TNTS, but not before mentioning that (during time of publication) there are only 2,869 12″ and 9,219 6″ Ray Stantz figures left and they are going fast.  Be sure to get yours before they are gone forever.

Ghostbusters ABC Sunday Night Movie Intro

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

Two weekends ago, I was lucky enough to find some VHS tapes of Ghostbusters II which contained special bumpers from ABC.  Today, while at home for Thanksgiving, I found the holy grail.  This tape was my first look at Ghostbusters (the film, my first intro to the franchise was The Real Ghostbusters).

This taping was recorded from ABC 7 in Chicago (WLS) in 1987.  Enjoy the bumper and, for those in the states, have a happy Thanksgiving!
