MegaCon 2010 is now only 6 days away, and Ghostbusters Fans from across the nation are getting pumped for what is sure to be an exciting, paranormal weekend. This year, Ghostbusters will be featured front and center with the Palm Coast Ghostbusters ECTO-1B being showcased in the Main Lobby of the convention center. The ECTO will not only serve as a prominent feature to showcase our “busting” abilities, but also as a central meeting place for all Ghostbusters throughout the weekend.

Also this year, GBTV and the Central Oklahoma Ghostbusters are carrying forth the Ghostbuster film tradition of paranormal laughter by bringing the Wacky World of Gozer right to you. Come visit us at Booth 805 to get a sneak peak at GBTV--Ghostbuster Television: All Ghostbusters, All the Time! Take moment to be Examined for Possession with their patented Mind Reading Technology and have your deepest, darkest thoughts revealed on a television screen for everyone to see! Yell at our Psycho-Reactive Slime, or just whisper sweet-nothings into it's non-existent ears--either way, it's gonna bubble! While at the booth pick up a free button (while supplies last), try on a Proton Pack and have your picture taken with the Ghostbusters and our giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. But wait, there's more!

Make time on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for this year's show, GBTV's "Comedy Safety Seminar" featuring newly unearthed GBTV "educational" film reels, slideshows and video tapes, all of which show you how to most safely (and hilariously) run your own Ghostbuster business PLUS the featurette "GBTV's Guide To A Safe Con". Hosted by our special guest Big D of Rhine, Georgia's Big D's Used Proton Pack Emporium!

Also with a booth this year are The Real Tampa Bay Ghostbusters. Featured at Booth 735, they will have their Ecto Containment Unit and Viewing Screen on display. The group will also be helping to raise money with a Ghostbusters Charity Raffle for the Relay For Life. The Relay will be held April 16th - 17th this year and benefits the American Cancer Society.

Ghostbusters: The Lost Comic Book Pitch - Found!

Image

Last year, Dapper Dan Schoening (the artist behind the Ghostbusters: The Video Game styling on the Wii), and James Eatock (from Cereal:Geek and seen on the Real Ghostbusters DVD Set) decided to work together on a pitch for a Ghostbusters Comic and send it over to IDW Publications to see if they were interested. The guys put together a 16 page document showing potential layouts and character designs as well as laying out the first 10 comics (much more than the average one shot or 4 comic series we normally get). They sent it over to IDW, and eventually they responded letting the guys know they weren't interested in their comic.

While the comic may never get picked up by IDW or a Sony approved publisher, we have the Comic Book pitch available here for you guys to check out! Wouldn't this be a great idea for a comic? Would you buy it? I know I would... hello IDW...

Ghostbusters Tainted Love Comic In Stock Now!

Image

As we first announced last week, the Tainted Love oneshot comic from IDW did not make its anticipated February 14th street date. The Tainted Love comics have arrived and we've got it available for purchase from the Ghostbusters Fans Shop. We've got the Nick Runge varient cover and its expected to sell out quickly!

Love is in the air-literally!-as Winston befriends an attractive woman with a ghostly problem in her apartment. But trapping the love-struck apparition proves to be more complicated than the Ghostbusters originally thought. Can Winston step up and save the day? Just how far will Peter go to find a date? And do Ray and Egon ever stop to think about girls, or is it always about trans-dimensional ectoplasmic anomolies with those two?

Also available is a limited number of Displaced Aggression Comics from IDW: http://www.gbfans.com/shop/comics/

Mattel Announces Ghostbusters Figure Release Dates

Image

MattyCollector.com posted an update to their Facebook page today with an update to the Ghostbusters release schedule. There are a few delays as we mentioned in a previous news article, but the release schedule will be picking up for the remainder of the year.

Orignally we had intended for a new 6" figure to ship every 2-3 months. But, inevitably due to circumstances well beyond our control we had a few hickups (this is why we don't do preorders for any of our lines!). But we are back online now and 6" Walter Peck is scheduled to hit Mattycollector.com in May. This will be followed by Slimed Peter in June and Labcoat Ray in Aug.

12" Peter will hit in April followed by Winston in Aug.

We're running a bit behind but by the end of the year we should be caught up and ready for even more Ghostbuster fun in 2011!

There will be three more 6" figure for 2010 yet to reveal plus a really great SDCC item that will knock your socks off! The Ghostbuster fun has only yet begun - only on Mattycollector.com!


Thanks to ecto80 for the heads up.
