We heard rumors that the SDCC Exclusive Figure will really knock our socks off. Can you drop any more hints? Will we be tripping over vertically stacked books to get it? Will it break us out of our electric chairs? I await the word of Mattel!
We actually can’t reveal any news quite yet. In April we’ll be ready to let the cat out of the bag!
We're all looking forward to completing our 12" Collections of the Ghostbusters. What unique accessories might we see with Peter and Winston?
Peter actually will not have any unique accessories. Winston will come with some essential paperwork and a cream-filled snack cake.
Since the new Hot wheels came out, we've seen limited availability of the Ghostbusters Ecto-1. Is there any chance we will see an increase in the number of them per case? Or are they just too expensive to manufacture? What about them showing up in Hot Wheels 10 and 20-Packs?
The Hot Wheels Ecto-1 will continue to ship throughout the year. Keep your eyes peeled!
Additionally, since the Ghostbusters license has spilled over into the Hot Wheels line, and Barbie is pushing her "career" thing this year, is there a possibility of a Ghostbuster "Janine" Barbie, or a Janine in Ghostbuster gear Barbie, reusing the molds for the gear you already have for the Matty 12" Ghostbuster line in mass market stores, similar to the recent girl's of the 80's releases?
No plans for a Barbie as Janine at this point but don’t count this idea out as the line progresses!

We need your questions for Mattel! Please post your questions in this thread and we will have a new set of answers around the middle of April.
IDW Publishing's editor Tom Waltz has posted a preview to the next Ghostbusters Comic release called "Con-Volution". This Holiday one-shot will come out around July 4th 2010, features the work of Keith Dallas, Jim Beard, and Josh Howard. Here is a varient B cover by artist Nick Runge (who was responsible for the awesome varient cover for the Tainted Love comic this past February).
Look for this comic available in the GBFans Shop in late June.

To begin, I must extend my sincerest apology to all those anticipating artists who await the announcement of the winner of the PKE Surge logo contest. When we first set out with the contest we had anticipated having some new content to run alongside of the winning logo; which still remains to be announced. Then after getting so many wonderful entries we found ourselves in a dead lock over which new logo to choose. I speak honestly when I say that this community has a surplus of great and talented artists who are constantly offering their talents to the community, and that there is no end to the respect for those who put their pen to the paper and then to the Internet for thousands of people to judge. Luckily for this contest only a handful of people had to judge your work, and boy was it hard! If memory serves the PKE Surge Staff spent hours debating on all the pros and cons of each individual entry for this years logo contest, and after all this time we have a winner.
Ladies and Ghostheads, on the behalf of PKE Surge 2010 presented by GBFans.com I present to you the 2010 No-Ghost logo that will be representing us at Dragon Con in Atlanta Georgia and winner of the contest, lordgilpin!
He will be rewarded with a free PKE Surge 2010 Prize Package which will include the official 2010 t-shirt with his logo screen printed on the front! Along with this his logo will be featured on the brand new PKE Surge website http://www.pkesurge.com
On behalf of the PKE Surge staff I want to thank all of the contest entries, I hope that you will re-enter next year when we pick a new logo and a new artist to represent us at PKE Surge 2011.
It was tearing up the internets last week, and now its back on Ghostbusters Fans. As seen on Wired, Yahoo News, Engadget, Gizmodo, Joystiq and others. irrelevanttomfoolery has given us the first look at his Nintendo Wii Proton Pack in action with footage from Ghostbusters: The Video Game.
