They've been cagey about the release date. They keep saying late 2018. I don't think series 8 has technically been released yet, so I'd guess that'll ship this month, and then 9 will be late summer early fall, and 10 will ship in the winter. Just a guess though.

My series 8 preorder through Amazon says arrival date is Sept. 28 so can kind of use that as a guide as to when we can expect 9 & 10

Does anyone happen to have an extra pair of black gloved hands for any of the ghostbusters they would be willing to part with? PM me if so please!

Anybody get the GB II half of this line? I know people weren't really happy with the first movie versions but I think the 2 stuff looks dope. Any improvement in quality? Thinking about getting these as the firehouse setup is awesome.

Thinking about getting these as the firehouse setup is awesome. What issues have you seen/read about quality? I have everything that has been released so far and haven't had any issue at all. In regards to the firehouse it really is awesome so far, its going to be massive once its complete.

Which of the GBII figures create the firehouse? All of them? To create the firehouse you need series 6 - 10 which is: Series 6: Vigo the Carpathian Ray Stantz (dark suit) Louis Tully (tan suit) Series 7: Peter Venkman (dark suit) Janosz Poha Winston Zeddemore (slime blower) Series 8: Egon Spengler (dark suit) Ray Stantz (slime blower) Winston Zeddemore (dark suit) Series 9: Winston (Real GB) Egon (Real GB) Slimer (Real GB) Series 10: Ray (Real GB) Peter (Real GB) Stay Puft (Real GB)

Thinking about getting these as the firehouse setup is awesome. Looks like the same body parts to me. Just by eyeballing them, the faces look a little better than the GBI figures, but I don't think enough to make me re-buy the main guys. I'll get new characters like Vigo and whatnot, but I don't want to drop too much more money into this line, and with TRU dead, no store will be offering cheaper ones that come without the set pieces. These are like $24.99 with the pieces, but without, TRU had just the figures for like $12.99 and it was a sweet deal for me.

Thinking about getting these as the firehouse setup is awesome. I have everything so far and VERY impressed with GB 2 Ray and Egon. The Ghostbusters figures were my toy dream but I never really wanted Ghostbusters 2 figures to be honest but I am enjoying them so far. I keep them mint on card but I have heard that the wire connecting the wand to the backpack are very weak and some issues with wrist joints snapping. Did you notice they didnt paint the silver line down the middle of the jump suit for GB2 Egon? It looks like his fly is open lol

I'm really liking the GB2 figures as well, especially having Vigo holding baby Oscar. Pretty cool to be able to have that in my collection.

ToysRus being gone is really a kick in the nuts with the Diamond stuff. The $14.99 versions were a big win imo. I'll be getting all of wave 9 and 10. Would have been nice to save the $10 a figure since I won't be getting the other waves to build the diorama.

Marshmallow covered Egon just went up for preorder on Big Bad. Nice that we can finally complete that set.

Well, I got most of the GB II figures, and let me just say...these kind of make me want to die. They are amazingly detailed and look great, but holy sh*t do they not stand up on their own, pose on their own, or anything even remotely close to that. Two proton guns snapped, a leg tube, a bunch of other things...it's awesome that there's so much detail but even for an adult collector it doesn't make much sense to take these out of the package and display them. I was kind of blown away...in pictures, the equipment looks removable, everything about it looks good. When opened I started to be afraid to even touch them.
Not much I can do about it now, though. Going to just super glue things back in certain places and just never touch them again?

Going to just super glue things back in certain places and just never touch them again? The quality has been a consistent complaint from me with this line. They do look really sharp but once you get them out and hoses start breaking and you have to lean them against other stuff because they’re too top heavy it gets frustrating. At $15 it wasn’t really a big deal but at $25 it feels like a problem. Ultimately, I just prefer the Mattel versions. I prefer the scale and asthetic and they feel far more durable. Other than Ray, I think the likeness is just as good, if not better, on them too. I’m happy to still be getting Ghostbusters figures but I just wish Matty/Mattel would have carried on and we were getting Mattel versions of the Real Ghostbusters right now.
