      I was brought in on the first movie, my parents was amazing with stuff that was scary and all for a kid my age. I was born in 85 but after I finally saw the movie the Real Ghostbusters was next then when two came out I saw it. I remember being a Ghostbuster for Halloween with the flight suit proton pack, pke meter and ghost trap!

    So, when I was maybe 5 or 6 years old, my grandmother on my dad's side had bought the 2 pack of Ghostbusters 1 and 2, the one with the green slime looking case, and I sat down one night with my mom and we watched it, I was hooked, I remember finding it kinda creepy but I was amazed, I had never seen anything else like it, and from that day forward I was a fan, I've bought plenty of merchandise, I even own every version of the 2009 videogame which I've played to completion on every version, and I now own a modified spirit Halloween pack and other accessories

    Extreme was a really good sequel to Real that respected what had come before. Some great homages to horror movies as well. Very much like Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated.

    Although I’m a huge Ghostbusters fan I never got to see Extreme Ghostbusters until recently, but when I was about 6, I saw “Ghostbusters” and it made me flip out, the way the story combined both scary and funny elements was pure magic to me, eventually I got to see “Ghostbusters 2” and I was once again in ectoplasmic heaven. I remember having many of the original Kenner figures from “The Real Ghostbusters” and also being a huge fan of the show.
    To this day “Ghostbusters” is one of my favorite and most beloved films and I really did enjoy the way you told your story, it made me very nostalgic about my own childhood and love for the franchise.
    Greetings from Mexico Stephen and all the very best! 👻

    I was the biggest RGB fan as a young kid, but spent several years wishing it was still on TV. By chance, I happened to find the first Extreme Ghostbusters episode. I was the happiest kid in the world every time that show aired a new episode. Now there are XGB episodes on UA-cam! What a time to be a Ghostbusters fan!

    Was born in 1991 so when I was old enough to remember toys, we already had a Kenner ecto 1 and a few of the Ghostbusters themselves. No proton packs, no accessories, ecto 1 was missing a door, the hook, and the gunner seat. A few years later I had gotten 2 extreme Ghostbusters figures for Christmas, Kylie, and the big slimer. Loved em! Even tho I never watched the show! I recently started watching them with my son. And I bought all the extreme Ghostbusters figures for my collection. I'll always remember that Christmas, so cool.

    In 2007 (I was 5) on a trip to best buy, on an otherwise uneventful day my older brother who was 13 at the time picks up the back to the future DVD trilogy set with holographic covers and then grabbed both Ghostbusters movies and that night i went home and watched BTTF 1&2 and the BTTF 3 the next day and the Ghostbusters movies after that. At the time i thought these movies were new so after watching them i annoyed my parents about when i went to school and talked of these movies that no one else my age had seen it confused them and i was instantly known for it. it also annoyed my teachers too because when i got bored i just started drawing Deloreans and Ecto-1s. Anyway thank you for reading and i loved the video.

    As a kid, I loved everything Ghostbusters. I was still a kid when the original TRGB came out and I had every toy they ever put out. I feel your pain with the 2 left wings. I had a similar issue one Xmas morning when I was gifted the Ecto & Firehouse. My Firehouse came with 2 left doors and on top of that I didn't know the HQ came with Ecto Plasm because my parents must have known it was going to make a mess so it was left out.

    What I'm enjoying as a Ghostbusters fan of 34 years old is that I, although somehow at the exact right age for Extreme GB, I never got into it at the time, I am now just watching EGB and enjoying. I think Pokemon was just starting to take over everything back then so i missed it, I did however start many years prior and had a good collection of RGB toys in the early 90s including the firehouse. Just recently bought Kenner Ecto 1 reissue again after trading mine with a friend when I was about 14/15 for something I can't even remember what.

    There's something to be said on discovering franchises like this gradually. If you'd first discovered Ghostbusters now, you could have binged everything in a couple of weeks on Netflix and possibly would have got bored with it.

    I've been on a Ghostbusters nostalgia trip recently and have been rediscovering Extreme Ghostbusters as it came out when I was a child. I also had some of the toys which included Kylie (my favorite), Egon, Eduardo, and the Ecto-1. I vaguely remember having the same issue with the fin on the side of the car. The spring-loaded bumper was stupid but I loved the ghost trap because I considered it to be my own personal ghost trap asit was way big in terms of scale from what the characters would actually use.
    I watched some old episodes and discovered that the different pack that the toy of Roland is in a small way accurate. The color is off and minor differences aside, in the last frames of the end of the intro theme where the team and Slimer pose together, Roland stands behind a device that has shoulder straps too it but doesn't look like a typical proton pack but more like what you end up seeing in the toys of Roland and Egon. I can't recall if such device is ever used in the show but its interesting how it has been in our face the whole time.
    Its funny that I would never have discovered this had I not watched this video and some episodes of Extreme Ghostbusters. Thanks for the nostalgia trip!

    My introduction to Ghostbusters was in 1998 when I was 2 years old I was at my cousins house and they both had Extreme Ghostbusters Ecto 1s and I fell in love with the car, I was then introduced to the cartoon and my mum got me a Deluxe Kylie and Eduardo figure from Tesco, that Christmas I got the best present I ever got which was the Extreme Ecto 1 and my obsession and love with Ghostbusters just kept growing

    I first became aware of Ghostbusters about when the 2009 video game came out.
    I was six at the time, so I obviously couldn't play it, but I saw GB merch at Toys R Us, saw an infomercial for the Time Life box set for Real Ghostbusters, & heard the theme song at my gym class.
    I couldn't understand a word they were saying other than "Ghostbusters" but I really liked the sound of it & would ask the teachers to play it frequently.
    Around 2012, I got a copy of Men in Black 2 on dvd, & it had a trailer for the dvd of Ghostbusters, I watched it, & I knew I wanted to see it.
    Sometime after, I asked my folks to order it off of Amazon, I got it & immediately fell in love with it.
    For my birthday around the same time, my grandparents got me the Mattel Real Ghostbusters Retro Action figures of Peter, Ray, & Egon, the RGB Minimates sets of the 4 busters, & a glow in the dark Stay Puft Marshmallow Man bank.

    Awesome childhood story..... I remembered that 1st introduced me to the ghostbusters when I was a kid, were the RGB episode 'Mrs Roger's Neighborhood'... And it scared me the heck when Venkman were possesed by 'what', showed his evil scary face... So I stopped and say myself never to watch that cartoon show again... Then when my mom brought me to the mall, I saw the shelfs of RGB toys, it got me hooked to it to see how cool the toys is, then my mom bought me the vhs tape on RGB episode 'doctor doctor' and 'ain't NASA sarily so', and I'm loving those episodes alot... So I began my love on Ghostbusters franchises....

    My story is at 2-3 in 1988/89 I remember watching the Real Ghostbusters first run and when I was 5 I saw the second film at a budget cinema. Honestly I have a very soft spot for the second film as it was the first one I saw as I didn't see GB 1 on tv till 1991. Ironically my 7th birthday was the airing of the last RGB episode. Now I have my suit, pack and a lifelong love.

    Not sure why, but I like the fact this is how you came to the GB franchise! By this time, I was at university and never saw this series except in magazines like ToyFare. I felt this was a pure example of an 80s property being revamped with 90s ideas of everything needing to be "extreme". With that said, it is cool this took you down the rabbit hole. I had most of the figures from the 80s line but I never got Ecto1.

    I discovered Ghostbusters when I was 7 at Universal Studios in Orlando. The Spooktacular show sparked my interest and made me want to watch the movies. My movie rental store only had the 2nd movie, so I actually saw it before the original. Lol. I also saw Extreme Ghostbusters before the Real Ghostbusters.

    You are a TRUE GHOSTBUSTERS Fan my friend. Really dig your story on how your interest in GHOSTBUSTERS started, kinda from the End of the Franchise to the Begining . I myself like many others my 1st intro to the GHOSTBUSTERS was the 1984 movie , then the Real GHOSTBUSTERS. As a kid ,i always asked my parents to call the Toy company (kenner) to make toys based on the live action movie 😂. Glad to see ur love for our boys in grey is still going . Dr Ray Stantz would be proud of you .

I was one of the guys who was Lucky to se TRG cartoon when they were airing and saw all of the movies. I even saw GB 2 in theaters. To the proton pack I taped some silly string and that was my rays. Good old times. Great story.

Then one day, I was going through the Sky Movies channels and found a film simply titled "Ghostbusters" was coming on. I watched it and the rest is history.

    I didn't have any Ghostbusters toys, so I just used my imagination.
    My buddy and I found a couple of old vacuum cleaners in a barn behind his house & we strapped them to our backs to combat ghosts around the barn.

    How I got into ghostbusters: my dad tried to get me to watch the movies a couple times on Halloween in kindergarten. I was not interested. And was scared of stay puft. My mom told me “he is just looking for a friend” that made me happy as I watched the rest of the movie. I was not even sad because I thought that if stay puft was real, id eat him?!? Then I got a ghostbusters costume the next year and the rest is history

    Dude my sister introduced me to GB at 12 or 13 years old I'm not even an 80s kid, then after that I got into figure collecting and believing it or not I actually started to collect vintage figures and not figures that were out on the market so I saw the real GB toy commercial and I was hooked, but the cool thing about it is that my mother told me that my brother was into GB when he was a kid, and destiny then struck, my mom had an egon and ray figure for when my brother was a kid preserved in her drawer it was a cool way to get introduced to GB and I like still to this day with extreme ghostbusters being my favorite because it came out on the year I was born how cool is that?!

    Ah, this is really adorable I don’t think my heart can take it.
    I remember the first movie appearing on tv about 7ish years ago when I was about 11 and I was so fascinated by how they choose not only normal human ghosts but also weird looking creatures and was kind of hooked. I got really hooked a few years later when LEGO released an ideas set of the car with the four ghostbusters and then their firehouse hq a while later, and while I never got the hq, I love the look of the car and can’t wait for the 2020 movie, especially when the reboot in 2016 was kind of a let down. (Although I’ll argue that that teaser trailer music was good as well as holtzman’s fight scene)

  • @thefwaynes
    @thefwaynes 3 роки тому

    So I have known about Ghostbusters for all my life just from general pop culture but I haven't really gotten into Ghostbusters until... a year ago... Yep sometime during the May of 2020 I got into Ghostbusters. Long story short I rewatched the Ghostbusters afterlife trailer while I was bored. I thought the concept intriguing about the idea of ghosts being held in stasis rather than me originally thinking that it was just a cowboy style shoot'em up show... don't ask me how I thought of that. But after watching that I decided to see if I could find clips of the original film and that is when I found a compilation of the best of Egon... and the scene inside the elevator got me HOOKED. Ever since I have hyper fixated onto the franchise watching the films, buying the props, learning about the extended media, ect.

    Happy GB day mate. Being a total Ghosthead already I used to book it home from secondary school to make sure I didn’t miss EGB.
    My story starts at the age of 3/4 my sister had the theme on 7” and I would get her to play it over and over. Eventually she rented the film and put it on for me, I was scared shitless! Soon after I found RGB being shown on Saturday mornings and my neighbour across the street the the toy of Peter and Stay Puft which I would always find an excuse to play with them. I ended up get a few of the toys for birthdays and Christmas’ but the line was coming to an end so it was getting harder to find ones I needed. I will always remember getting home from school and finding the fire house sitting in the middle of the living room floor with my Ecto-1 packed inside. I think my little brain must have melted when I saw the poster for GB2 at a bus stop as I demanded to see it there and then, lol. Again I had to wait to rent the vhs, my dad made a copy which I played to death any chance I got.

  • @EtaYorius
    @EtaYorius 2 роки тому

    I think i got my first Peter figure somewhere in 1988 or something, and i lost it when i took it to school and threw it in the air and got stuck in the roof of my class... I remember also owning a Slimer that spit ecto-slime and had some sort of proton pack in the back, also had two different Egons (one in red/white suit that would spin his torso and a second firue with a white space suit with some ghostly alien hands holding his head), 1 Ray figure that his hair and ear pop up when pushing his arm (which got broke when i drop it from a table), the Ghost Toilet and one peter figure that had a yellow hasmat suit. In late 2018 I won a bid of the four first basic Real GB figures plus Janine in purple Flight suit all in very good condition, but without any accesories. Also, During a visit to Brownsville Tx in 2016 i bought a Mattel Peter and then ordered Egon and Ray through a similar site ebay in Mexico. Recently i ordered the Ecto-1 from Afterlife Fright Features, Winston and Trevor from Plasma Series and waiting for Phoebe to pop up in both Fright and Plasma series on Amazon. I never owned any proton or neutrona wand or even the Ecto-1 or Firehouse, i mostly had figures. Ghostbusters ranks second in my top 3 all time fav franchises, TMNT would be first and Jurassic Park third Place.

    I remember when I first watched this show, I was confused. I think I remember seeing it and wondering, "Uhhhhh..." Yeah, I was born in '85 so I had a much more clear idea of what Ghostbusters was back then. Seeing this I was not sure what to think. Of course, now, I accept it as what _should_ have happened with the franchise. I think this was some kind of market test seeing idiots in Hollywood promised Aykroyd something, used this as a test bed, sabotaged it because they didn't want to foot the bill for another movie, and then cancelled this show. its an odd chapter in Ghostbusters history, but seeing where it was going from there...

    It's clear the toy developers never actually watched an episode or cared about the series at all. They were just throwing the craziest ideas to the wall (because "Extreme") hoping they'd stick 🤣 The proton gun w/ a voice speed setting & a talking pack? Whew, what a mess!
    I'm an RGB head & remember when Extreme "premiered," I guess. My family had satellite instead of cable, so there were test channels networks would run their programming blocks on before they actually aired to the masses. Coolest thing ever as I got to watch the entire Fox Kids lineup with no commercials at 2:00AM instead of 8:00AM!
    There was a channel that ran a number of episodes of Extreme on Saturdays around 6:00PM - 7:30PM
    Anyway, to this day, I have no idea what network Extreme actually ran on & from my understanding, that's what ultimately killed the show is the weird time slot scheduling issues. Did the Extreme toyline ever have those Play-Doh style buckets of ectoplasm?
    Great video btw! 👌🏿

    Hey, I'm late to the party as I've only just come across this video 😮.
    I think it was Christmas 1986 I first see the movie on TV and I immediately got blown away, it was so iconic the ecto 1 the proton packs it was immediately one of my favourite films. My mum had a pull along vacuum that I strapped to my back for a proton pack... not long after seeing the film we were treated to the real ghostbusters every Saturday morning and with the cartoon come the toys and of course the holy grail the kenner proton pack. GB2 hit the cinema in 1989 and we had 2 more years of the real ghostbusters which I no longer enjoyed as it was slimer and the real ghostbusters, they toned down the scary content and centered it too much around slimer. I don't know how I missed extreme ghostbusters when it aired on tv, but somehow I did.
    The 2 films I would regularly watch over the coming years, and finally 2.5 years ago I finally came across a kit to build my own proton pack. It was a rush to build it and have the full outfit ready for afterlife which with 4 other people we have started our own franchise, but that's another story as its been a mental time and we have everything from dancing toasters to containment unit. Keep on bustin mate 👌

    I had spent the night with my aunt and uncle, and they had the original movie rented. I fell in love then and there. My aunt had a friend rig two vcrs together (illegal) to make me a copy because at the time the vcr was sort of a new thing and you had no record button. I watched it literally every day. I was lucky enough to be almost 10 yrs older than you so i got to see the Real Ghostbusters in real time and the 2nd movie was the 1st movie i ever saw in a theatre. My mom was a cheapskate so i had few toys from the trilogy but i do remember making my own proton packs and stuff. I discovered the Extreme Ghostbusters when i was in high school and driving age and so on. I tried watching it but i hated it. Now ffwd my teenage daughter loves the whole thing. I bought her the entire series of the real ghostbusters. I have both of the 1st two movies and i hate the 2016 remake. We went to the theatre and saw afterlife and it was awesome! We all loved it and can't wait for it to be out on dvd. I had a lump in my throat at the theatre at the climax toward the end seeing the originals together again and the ghost of Egon standing beside them. I hope they continue with new movies as good as that one was. That's my story and i liked yours. I'm glad a guy from a little bit younger generation discovered it and got so hooked.

    anyways I got into Ghostbusters from the first movie, even tho the terror dogs scared the crap out of me at first, and now i think they need to do a George Lucas up date on the terror dogs .. lol and yes i loved the real Ghostbusters as a kid apparently i must be a few yrs older than you.. lol but of course i was about 5 and it was about 1988 before the 2nd movie came out and i loved everything about it.

    Extreme Ghostbuster was very grounded dark and environment creepy ad love every aspect of it and yea Extreme Ghostbuster ecto 1 got to be my favorite one. I did saw other custom concept of the Extreme Ghostbusters on what they usually wear in tere progress of work but the garret fogure was more clpse to the prototype that was unrelease whoch does exist difer if you had not know yet. Also Ghostbuster Afterlife is a bit inspired base on Extreme Ghostbuster so expect forward on
