Ghostbusters AU
Why the fuck not.
Just y'know Ghostbuster Batch shit. Four guys get together and start a ghost extermination company.
It's fun and chaotic.

Crosshair: Cross the streams?! I don't want to die, thanks!
Tech: Well actually, there's a small chance we'll survive!

Hunter, after getting slimed with the happy pink slime: I love you guys. Did you know I love you guys?
Crosshair: Tech, when is he gonna be back to normal?

TWO MORE MONTHS, PEOPLE!!!
Quick thoughts to follow up after my post on the teaser trailer (SPOILER WARNING!) In honor of March the 22nd…I’ll go for 22 observations/opinions.
1. Slimer’s back!
2. JANINE IN UNIFORM! WITH A BLASTER!
-Definitely a call back to 1) one of the ORIGINAL storyboard designs for the backpack/neutrona wand in the first movie, and 2) the IDW comics when Janine and other “new ‘Busters” take over when the OGs disappear.
3. Definitely another secret society/cult that must’ve worshipped Garraka ( hidden room with the demon’s horns/frozen eyepatch guy that shatters in the supposed flashback scene..?)
4. If that’s Coney Island where the big ice storm is coming ashore…then THAT could very well be a throwback to the RGB episode “Collect Call of Cthulu.”
5. GB’s got a new van! Ecto 1c?
6. Research lab? AWESOME!
7. Big question- what’s the connection between the arrival of Garraka and the red light on the containment unit? Is it coming after GBHQ to get more power (much like Gozer?)
8. OK…James Acaster is NOT a grown Oscar…damn. I’m sure his researcher character is gonna be brilliant though. Poor guy…frostburned hand? Eesh.
9. I REALLY hope they explore more of Callie (and therefore, Egon’s) background story. That scene where Trevor’s in that attic…aw.
10. DRONE TRAP!!! Next level! Fans lost their minds with the RTV…someone will surely try to build a model of a freaking FLYING ghost trap.
11. Modified proton packs? Makes sense now, that thing can FREEZE the positron stream! WHAT!?
12. Grooberson’s driving Ecto 1! F*ck yeah, Paul Rudd!
13. LIBRARY GHOST IS BACK!
14. So how does Kumail Nanjiani’s character come into possession of that mysterious golden orb? I’m still thinking it’s his apartment with the secret door.
15. Imagine being an old time NYC firefighter and seeing men frozen to death, in fear. When did NYFD form, I wonder?
16. Patton Oswalt is the new Ray…love it.
17. Bill Murray…still got it, man.
18. Swear to god that’s his old orange jacket from the first movie.
19. OK…on one hand, Gil and Jason are probably not counting the GB Video Game as part of the canon, and yet, the IDW comic universe IS built on some plot points of the game. So…does the PCOC exist in Frozen Empire? Is Peck mayor? Perish the thought?
20. Bring on the mischievous Mini-Pufts! Evidently some survived the “Summerville Massacre.”
21. PLEASE have Egon’s unknown life history be in the story somewhere, PLEASE Gil and Jason! It’s almost 10 years since the world lost Harold Ramis…PLEASE pay his beloved character some more tribute.
22. I have to admit…I do like Annie Potts back with not just her red hair, but those new blue-frame glasses. Good nod to the animated series, I will bow to that piece of fan service, not sorry.
TWO MORE MONTHS!!!

Ghostbusters
Classic 1984
Winston Zeddemore
by Hasbro (2021)
Picked this figure up in the wild at 09-4-21
This version of Winston is a more cartoon version of him not associated with any current cartoon series. He’s a 5 point figure, similar to the old Kenner Real Ghostbusters figures of the 80s.
Companion Ghost
Winston’s companion ghost is cast in yellow plastic, and looks like a short, fat man, which the mid section opens up to reveal a very insane and creepy face.
Winston stands well, and he looks well, and I like that head sculpt. His facial expression definitely shows off some personality.
He wears the proton pack well, but he doesn’t really hold it well, in my opinion.
The proton pack is a soft, unpainted black plastic.
1984 classic Winston is a decent figure for what it is. It’s a call back to the old Kenner toys, and it’s just simple fun.
I should have bought the rest of them back when they were in the stores, but I think I find them at my local Ollies right now for a reduced price. Maybe i’ll pick up the rest of the team.
