Priced to retail for $19.99, the Ghost Popper is scheduled for release on January 1st, 2021.
For the Plasma Series, Hasbro will be producing a 1/18th scale replica of Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters: Afterlife, featuring rust and dirt detailing, Gunner seat, and a further feature (which you'll have to visit the topic to see due to it being a small spoiler for the movie).
Priced to retail for $49.99, the Ecto-1 is scheduled for release on January 1st, 2021.

Fans may remember that towards the end of July, Numskull, a company which produces official geeky merchandise (and has already produce a number of products based on the Ghostbusters franchise) ran a poll asking fans to choose the design for their next wall/desk lamp.
The results were tallied, and Ghostbusters was the winner, and the company has now posted a link to pre-order the sign, which is run off of micro-USB, or x3 AA batteries.
The sign's measurements are 19 x 19 x 7 cm, which works out to roughly 8 x 9 x 3 inches, and is set to retail for ÂŁ24.99/$24.99, which is an affordable (if smaller) option for those who couldn't justify the cost of the Entertainment Earth version.

Although Ghostbusters: Afterlife has been postponed by the pandemic, 2020 is proving to still be an interesting year for Ghostbusters fans, and it seems Ghostbusters II is getting some long-overdue love and attention. Just shy of a fortnight since the news that the score from Ghostbusters II will be getting an official release, the latest auction catalogue for Prop Store's Treasures from Film and Television features a treasure-trove of production artwork, and a few notable three-dimensional pieces, all of which reveal some interesting insights into the production of the second movie.
The auction is scheduled to take place on the 26th and 27th of August.
Please view the topic for detailed listing of the auction lots.

For years, fans of Ghostbusters II who've wanted to listen to the orchestral score written by Randy Edelman have had to rely on an unofficial copy, digitally ripped from the DVD of the film, and marred by occasional sound effects throughout the track.
Ghostbusters II fans will soon be able to hear an official release of the score music via Sony Masterworks, as revealed by Edelman's official website:
At long last, Sony Masterworks will be releasing the much requested orchestral score of Randy Edelman’s for “Ghostbusters 2.” The composer will be directly involved in the package.
The release is currently scheduled for 2021, giving us another reason to look forward to next year.
