The Ectozone: The Ghostbusters Universe At Your Fingertips

From GBFans: Hasbro brings back the Ecto-Glow Heroes for SDCC

Following a few teases/leaks in the past week or so, toy company Hasbro has revealed that it's next offering in the Ghostbusters Kenner Classics range will be a re-release of the Ecto-Glow Hero figures, as reported by Toy News International.

Originally released in 1991, the Ecto-Glow Heroes represented the final run of Real Ghostbusters figures from the original Kenner run, and featured the four Ghostbusters and Louis Tully in special glow-in-the-dark uniforms (including glowing mask accessories of their own heads), packaged with glowing ghosts and proton packs.

The 2025 versions of the Ecto-Glow Heroes (minus Louis)...

WHOO-HOO! This sounds awesome so far!!!

...are currently set to be an exclusive collectable at this year's San Diego Comic Con.

Final renders and further details, such as the retail price are expected to be released in the near future, however for comparison, the first wave of Kenner Classics figures retailed for around $14.99 each.

woo-hoo. This sucks.

This line was rather spottily distributed; I personally didn't even know they existed until I saw a guy at a comic show selling them for a big markup, around 1993 or so. I bought his Egon and Venkman, but he didn't come to the next show and I could never get Winston and Ray (or even Louis) back in the day.

Ah well, guess I can't complain too much about something I never had anyway, right?
