I really like the fright features figures as a what if Kenner made movie style versions. They look amazing in my vintage firehouse!
I can't believe I didn't know about the re-issue Ecto-1 sooner. When I was a kid in the early 90's I missed my chance at owning a complete model and picked up a loose incomplete version from a thrift store like the Salvation Army. Def gonna try and get this ASAP!
They were pretty smart really. They’re close enough that they feel right, but next to the original you can tell them apart. And more importantly, you can’t swap parts. Non-repro folks should be happy.
That certainly came in handy while filming the video when I mixed some of them up. 😁
I have all of these reissues thus far except the Green Ghost (Slimer) and very much love them for being so dead on to the originals, and the reasonable price. I've seen a couple of the Fright Feature reissues in stores, and will pick those up too. I got those first back in 89 even before I got the original toon accurate versions.
Hi Micheal, Even though you're Asleep, Great video about Vintage Kenner Real Ghostbusters & Ecto-1 Vs Is Kenner Classics Reissues, Keep them coming, Also, your latest video was outstanding, Also both the comparisons to both The Vintage Classic Kenner Real Ghostbusters & Ecto-1 & The Kenner Classics Real Ghostbusters Re-issues are incredible, Also, Helpful comparisons here, thanks!

Hope they re-issue the Fire House playset.
These reissues are great! I also acquired these through BBTS bcus I never saw them at retail. Also, last week I was able to get all 4 plasma series glow in the dark Slimed versions which are currently on sale on BBTS. Great review like always Michael.
Amazing how you've kept the originals so pristine and new with no paint rubbed off or anything? Mine are all still sealed and carted LOL! And I'm talking the 86 originals!👻🚫☃📦
There's a bit of paint loss but yeah, they were taken care of.
Beautiful collection. I've managed to aquire some originals Kenners eg Fright Features etc. Just waiting for Slimed Heroes
Thank you for such a thorough comparison.
I was considering getting the reissues to use the packs on my vintage figures, but you showed that the new ones don't work.
The exact info I was looking for.
If I were to guess as to why the stream on the proton packs is a slightly different color I would say it's because the reissue uses a softer more flexible plastic for that part and that changes the color as a result.
Just in time to get us more in the mood before the new movie! Great work! 👻
Helpful comparisons here, thanks! The reissues look great on the cards, alongside the original figures and ghosts too. Keep up the great videos! Good to hear the Ray Stance figure was durable despite his fall. That was a great early bird deal for the reissues, agreed! Slimer Green Ghost and Stay Puft also. Great collection here.
I grew as well up with Ghostbusters and the Real Ghostbusters as I have ever since I was 3 literally been a die-hard GB fan!
I never got those awesome action figures as a kid so I had to settle for playing with my cousins figures. Now as an adult, I was so amazed and so glad they re-issued the figures and Ecto-1 - and at same time Hasbro releases the "Fright" series of more mvie like action figures and Ecto-1. So I had to make a choice for my money.
I went with the Freight figures as they are slightly more appealing, and all ghosts and monsters from RGB worsk well with the Freight figures (well for display, ha-ha).
However, why have they not re-issued the HQ firehouse? Dang it I would want to make a great display of evreything!
we need a kenner classics firehouse.
Yes!
Love these videos. It reminds me of My childhood 👌☺️
🫡
My originals' proton packs have the cable to the wand coming from the the bottom of the pack...not the center of the accelerator.
9:37 reminds me of Honey Lemon and Lemon Flavour candy.... Lol
You can just switch the handle for Winston. I think the cords on both version are holding the handles with a knot. Might worth to take a look 😊
Saw Egon at target, almost bought him, hopefully they will be around for awhile, I saw an April O'Neal playmates ninja turtles that I chose over Egon. I know lots of people complain about companies trafficking in nostalgia but I think some of them look great and it's fun collecting them for those who don't have their childhood toys, the playmates original turtles remakes look awesome and there like 10$.
My Wal Mart had all of them marked down to $8 and I know a store like Ollies and Big Lots have or had them for $5 last August. They have been around for a few years and got them all when they went on clearance. Got the ghost popper gun for $7 at Wal Mart which is crazy. Wal Mart is already putting Frozen Empire stuff on clearance.
Got this notification during my Michael Mercy marathon!
Id love to see more on extreme ghostbusters toys
Stryfe in the back with his cell-tower head 😂
"Can you hear me now!? Hey Stryfe, come closer!" 😆
JUST IN TIME, I just started collecting RGB last week. Thank you!
Are the new ones shorter? They look slightly shorter.
However, the reissue's neutrona blaster clips to the original 80's pack.
So. With that in mind, the older 80's packs react to blacklight where the reissue does not
I go with Charle's custom RGB packs, for vintage and new. 🙂
Would you ever be interested in reviewing Return of the Jedi Despecialized like you did for ANH and ESB?
Some day. The main plus is getting rid of the horrible musical number in Jabba's palace. I actually prefer the Special Edition end music though over the Ewok yub-nub song. But my Anakin ghost at the end will always be Sebastian Shaw.
I bought them on olley's store for $5 each last summer.
Awesome toys action figure collection ❤😊
Thanks Mark!
@@MichaelMercy you're welcome
That was the ghost moving the car lol.
😱
Good memories
@@MichaelMercy the cartoon was excellent quality. Sometimes too scary.
The white film is the plastic degrading. A hair dryer will take it right off.
Cool.
The new ecto head lights are new .. the reissue ones are slanted..more like the cartoon. I like it more
Disappointed that the Kenner Classic packs don't snap satisfyingly in place. That was the first thing I tried when I opened them and was saddened that it was gone.
Truth.
I want lil baby stay pufts ....sheesh
😊
