Retro Action Ghostbusters Janine and Samhain 2 pack.

[Werewolf]

I thought this should have it's own thread to discuss the 2 pack away from the bad news of DC Retro-Action ending. This is good news for GB fans and I'm really looking forward to the 2 pack.

There's also a lot of custom potential with the set and the RA female body is actually very nice.

Anyone seen any clear pics of the set from the show floor yet?

What I want to know is why Janine's jumpsuit is orange. I can't find any reference images of it ever being that color. In the show, she wore Peter's jumpsuit and in figure form she's appeared in both pink and purple. So, where did the orange come from?

I've got no complaints about Samhain. I hope Slimer's eyes are painted. It would have been nice if he had come with some kind of floating stand. I also wonder what the depth will be on the firehouse diorama.

I think Janine should where the outfit shown on the back of the cards. The shirt + skirt would make a great citizen outfit for customs.

Looking forward to adding this to my other figures. I always liked this line.

Well, will ya look at that! I just YouTubed the episode. I still don't prefer that look, but at least Mattel had a reason for it.

Thanks for posting that, Werewolf!

No prob. I'm really excited for this set. I've always liked Janine as a Buster and the suit is actually pretty spot on to the toon.

I'm really happy for the fans of this linen (at least they get a couple more figures and Slimer) but kinda sad too. Mainly because you guys and gals get teased with one, just one of the bad guys. That poor pumpkin head is going to be getting his seeds handed to him alot!

I'm sincerely happy for the Ghostbusters fans. I love the movie, but I don't think I ever saw the cartoon, so I have no special affection for it.

I dig the set and see it as a proper sendaway for the RA in the Ghostbuster world.
Tho I have not purchased the GB figs, I just might. Matter of fact, if I had seen jims thread early enough, I would have been on that.

So - good on the 80s kids for getting something that is not Masters or Joe.

I don't collect the Ghostbusters line, but I'm likely snagging this for the customizing possibilities.

I'll get a couple for customizing. I hope its less than $40.

Anyone notice the lower right corner? The box becomes the firehouse. I wonder if it's the whole thing as pictured or a BAF type thing. That would be cool. Put a piece in a 2 pack make several 2of them and then sell an accessory pack to go with it.
