This week, construction continues at comic shops
across North America, as more pieces of the Ghostbusters Firehouse
arrive as part of Ghostbusters Select Action Figures Series 7!
Continuing the new collection based on Ghostbusters 2, these
three new figures deliver all-new costumes, accessories and diorama
pieces for Ghostbusters fans and collectors, plus one never-before-made
character! Read on for more info, then reserve yours at a comic shop
near you!
Following up on Series 6 -- with "We're Back" Ray
Stanz, Geared Up Louis Tully and Vigo the Carpathian -- Series 7 offers
the following three characters:
- “We’re Back” Egon Spengler in his grey jumpsuit, with proton pack, walkie-talkie, ghost trap, proton stream, Santa hat, jar of pink mood slime and the line’s first giga meter, as seen in Ghostbusters 2.
- Slime-Blower Winston Zeddemore in his specialized mood-slime-projecting gear, with a pink slime stream and a severed head on a pike, from the ghost train scene in Ghostbusters 2.
- Janosz Poha, head of restoration at the Manhattan Museum of Art, with baby Oscar, a lenticular disappearing Vigo painting, and a pair of baby-holding hands for Series 6’s Vigo figure. This is Janosz’s first time in action figure form outside of the Minimates mini-figure line!
Each figure features approximately 16 points of
articulation, and each additionally comes with a piece or pieces to
build the 21.6” wide by 22.7” high by 6” deep firehouse diorama.
Depicting the two main doors, sign and cornice of the iconic
building, the diorama will require 15 figures to build, and will
include signs for Ghostbusters 1 and 2, as well as removable “Hook &
Ladder” lettering.
Next in the line, Series 8 recently opened for
pre-orders with “We’re Back” Peter Venkman in grey, “We’re Back” Winston
in grey, and Slime-Blower Ray Stanz, all of whom should arrive in comic
shops this summer.
Series 9 and 10 will feature the Real Ghostbusters, from the 1980s cartoon, with Egon, Winston and Slimer in Series 9, and Peter, Ray and a fully articulated 9-inch Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man in Series 10. Each will also come with a piece of the firehouse diorama, and will be offered for pre-order later this year for arrival in winter 2018/2019, at comic shops and specialty stores.

To commemorate the completion of the rooftop and
the launch of the Ghostbusters 2 line, Diamond Select Toys partnered
with animator Alex Kropinak (Marvel’s What The…?!, Twisted ToyFare
Theatre) and musician Matt Takacs to create an all-new
stop-motion animation, using Ghostbusters Select action figures to
re-create one of the original film’s most famous scenes!
