---

I'm really surprised the final line-ups for the two packs didn't change. I really expected that Ray and Egon would have been paired up with ghosts. Since they're in the specialty market 4-pack, I wonder if their 2-pack won't sell as well because of the pairing.

preordered all but the Ray/Egon set!

and Ive said it before but, TRU's shipping is too damn high (+sales tax!) for something that low a weight and that is most likely going to be delivered in crushed bubble mailers

oh well, guess it beats wasting gas on something my local store probably won't even get

I'm in the UK - any idea how to go about ordering the 2-packs? I can't find anything about international shipping on the Toys R Us website.

They don't ship internationally.

looks like the packs with the monsters has pre-sold out and disappeared from the site for now

Packaging Shots!!!!






things to note:
- streams are a different color orange and no blue coloring on them
- the packs have an upside down ghost trap on them (nice touch)
- Egon's pke is a new mold
- Slimer looks a little translucent

DO WANT. these are making me interested in minimates again!

also whats with the upside down title card on the Ray/Egon set?

It's a varient.

These just keep looking better and better! I love the new packaging.

1st official look at 2nd boxset

ANOTHER stay puft? at least the RGB slimer minimates have different paint jobs and altered sculpts...

thanks Doc. I'll be ordering from gbfans.

Spotted in the wild! The sets are now available at Toys R Us. After waiting for 25 years, I finally have a Bogeyman Action Figure.

Yep found them out here in AZ too

The description of Blackie (Egyptian Ghost) has a typo on the back of the box, "Detective Philip Spade, now the Egyptian Ghost..." and Ray's description has a grammatical error, not like that matters The Real Ghostbusters Minimates are still awesome.

thank you Ou7of7ime. short, but pointless.

Just picked up mine at the local TRU. They got in 1 box of figures, and the variety breaks down just like the movie minimate boxes did: more of the busters, less of the alternate figures.
Egon & Ray x 4
Janine & Slimer x 4
Boogieman & Terror Dog x 2
Sam Hain (still misspelled "Haim") & Blackie x 2

These figures look even better in person than the pictures. Happy hunting y'all.

Did you buy all of them? If so damn you!

why are they appearing in stores? I preordered from the TRU website way back when they were first available to preorder, and the website still says "preorder" - wtf?

I picked up a set today, with the exception of Ray/Egon, since I'll get them in the boxed set. Only issue was Janine's glasses were not perfect, but otherwise these are great!

Boogie is AWESOME, one of the coolest minimates from all lines, to date!!!!!

Website still says preorder for me too...I plan to check the two TRUs within a reasonable driving distance over the weekend.

We snagged a full set on Monday as well.

Haha! Not all of them. Just 2 complete sets, leaving the 2 extra sets of each Egon/Ray and Janine/Slimer. I think it would be easier if they would just give each box 3 complete sets, but I guess then you wouldn't have "chase" figures.

Quick tweet from DSTChuck: "...RGB series 1 box set will be in specialty stores 7/6"

Yay!

This means I'm off to TRU after work.

It kinda sucks that both the box set and the TRU sets have both the same Ray and Egon but no Peter or Winston yet. Dont get me wrong they are all cool and I will get them all, I just wish they would have changed it up a bit.
