There is another possibility. On July 24, the Section 122 tariffs will expire. If Hasbro can hold off on having the packs hit US soil until that date, they can avoid 10% in taxes. Considering their asking price of $299 predated the tariff situation in the first place (as well as the new economic realities of transport costs skyrocketing due to a war in the middle east), and that they have not increased this price for any of us, I would say it would make sound financial sense to simply delay the pack as long as possible in order to regain that 10%.

But hey, what do I know. I don't work for Hasbro.

EDIT: Well slap my knee and call me bobby, if you needed any more proof I don't work for Hasbro, we all just got an update e-mail stating that they've locked down the ship date for the first batch as June 1. Guess they don't need that 10% after all.

See y'all in June!

I just now received that email as well.

Ok im really confused here...friday will be may 1st...the items will still SHIP IN JUNE...and we will be charged then? So im not all of a sudden going to get hit with a 391 dollar bill from hasbro next month for items shipping in june right? The problem im having is, Hasbro for what ever reason doesn't send me emails and wont let me change my email address and its not an issue of they are in my junk/spam folder...i never get an email from hasbro for what ever reason. Ive tried to fix this multiple time...idk whats going on there my email address on my account is the correct one. I never blocked them or anything i know that for a fact...i just wana be sure these items are paid for within a budget when i planned on paying for them. Idk im just being anxious i guess.

I'm just trying to see if I'm the only one that can't change my shipping address.
Order says: Currently, you are unable to update your address for this order through the My Account section.
And their support page says:

• Log into your account and navigate to Order History.

• Click the Update Shipping Address link under "Need to make a change that applies to all orders?"

• Select one of your saved addresses or input the new shipping address and click Confirm.

But I don't see that option under Order History at all.
I was able to update my payment method which allowed billing address to be updated.
Do I really need to contact support to update shipping?

The most recent experience I have with Hasbro is the Two in the Box.
-Hasbro sent the similar we're preparing to ship email on November 16, 2024.
-FedEx Delivery Manager, on December 13, let me know there's a shipment heading to me.
-My credit card was charged on December 13.
-Hasbro sent me the email it shipped on December 14.
-FedEx Delivery Manager, on December 18, let know it will come the next day.
-I got my Two in the Box on December 19.

So if I'm understanding it correctly, this email should only be the 1 month reminder email. Or in other words, in 1 month give or take, the order will be shipping around May 27-29 and that's when you will be charged then people should be getting theirs the first week of June.

$391? It should only be a couple over $300.

In Order History, looking at my order, under the grand total on the right, I see a link "Change this delivery address". Do you have that?

When in doubt, contact customer service asap. If anything, to confirm the new shipping address went through.

[yourbigpalal83]

391 is with the Hasbro Ecto Glow Ecto 1 as well and no matter what i do it wont let me change my email address, which is the correct one. I just dont get email from hasbro. the only way i find out anything is via this forum, Jasons GhostbustersNews youtube channel or me manually checking my hasbro accounts order history. Otherwise im totally in the dark.

[Nomake Wan]

If you are not receiving e-mails from Hasbro, absolutely reach out to their support and see if your account has an incorrect e-mail address associated with it on the back-end. Have them update your e-mail and physical address as necessary.

I called them... It's fixed now. But she couldn't explain why the option is not there for me.
She has for Haslab it's like that but this isn't a Haslab release.

Weird that it seems to be just my order.

[Prologic9]

My original card is expiring this month so I tried to update and it said it couldn't update without a default address, which I already had. I had to remove all payment and address info from the site and start fresh, and even then the actual info page didn't update for a while.

But it did work.

[Mac1701]

I logged into the Hasbro Pulse site to double check that my address and payment info was updated only to find out my payment info was missing all together. I don’t know if it’s just me or not, but it might be worth checking if you haven’t already.

[yourbigpalal83]

Ok so its not just me whos having issues with the site and fixing things. The weird thing is...my email address is the correct one. Idk why they never send me an email about anything...and it wont let me "fix" it. I guess they just dont like me (but still take my money).

[Kingpin]

It looks like in order to get an email changed/updated, you have to contact the Pulse customer support team: LINK

The only things that come to mind are that sometimes in my workplace, we've had problems with emails going to accounts operated by certain email hosts. Which one do you use?
The other thing that came to mind is maybe there's a small less obvious error buried in the email, like an unexpected gap, or a comma in the place of a period/full stop... Even something like that can cause emails destined for you to go off-course.

[yourbigpalal83]

i sent them a message. lets see what happens. Thanks for the link though.

[gerard55]

The hasbro site was under a cyber attack according to this article,. ive been trying to place an order and keep getting weird errors so had a google and this came up.

What are people's thoughts on future availability of this pack on Pulse? I'd like to pick it up but have a lot of things going on right now so wouldn't be able to get it for about a month.

It's been popping in and out of stock, and so did the Rooftop Showdown set before they shipped then that went in stock and seems to be staying there. Hoping for something similar with this.

Could be some will change their mind and cancel their orders after that reminder email, allowing for a limited quantity to reappear on the site. I'd imagine the Proton Pack would sell out faster than the figures because of demand being greater - prop builders, collectors, fomo from the 1st time it was offered, scalpers.

Thanks, that's my suspicion as well. It's hard to tell how Pulse exclusives will go sometimes since they like to play the fomo game of being "sold out" and we have no way of knowing what their inventory is like. I have a Spengler wand and no pack so I'll have to break down and put it on my card just in case.

[Nomake Wan]

Just had Hasbro confirm they took my payment for the 1984 Proton Pack!! Guess those e-mails about the updated May 20 ship date were legit!!

I actually never got the May 20 e-mail (I only got the June 1 one) but several people I know got the May 20 one. But since they just took my money, we must all be getting it! Hooray!!

[undead ghosthead]

Hasbro just charged me for my Proton Pack!

[Mac1701]

Hasbro just charged me for my Proton Pack!

Same here!

[mrmichaelt]

As did I! Kinda wish they charged next week but beggars can't be choosers. Nearly 1 year later, it's happening!

[Kingpin]

Hasbro:

You get a Proton Pack!
You get a Proton Pack!
And you get a Proton Pack!

[yourbigpalal83]

Pending charge for the Proton pack on the credit card! Still no email about anything despite me contacting Hasbro support and informing them! Waiting on the Ecto 1 Ecto Glow and Pack to ship. Just found an old Guitar Stand in the garage and going to use it to display the pack! Maybe someone on Etsy will make and sell a more proper stand at some point, more in line with what hasbro shipped with the Spengler Pack!

[deadderek]

I need to calm down, this is going to be my 5th proton pack!

[yourbigpalal83]

I need to calm down, this is going to be my 5th proton pack!

2nd athough technically my 5th. I had the classic The Real Ghostbusters one as a kid. I would sleep in that thing if my parents would let me. No ghost or witchs or zombies were getting this fat little 4 year old lol. Then i had 2 of the spirt halloween ones (the smaller ones) but i got rid of them the moment i got my Spengler Proton Pack, AFTER the campaign ended. I had my money tied up in a trip to disney that year that i ended up not going on, so i missed out, but got the pack from Big Bad Toy Store i think in August of 2022/2023 (Somewhere in there). Thats my current pack. This will be the final one i buy short of winning the lotto and getting a custom built metal one, and at that point might as well buy 4 and have various versions of them in my dream firehouse i build lol.

Practically i cant see them making better ones that arent over 1000-2000 dollars if not more with higher end electronics and metal parts. Were money no object...id buy the best one i could find...trap, PKE Meeter too...slime blower, the works. Hell i even get a "Functional" Containment Unit. I know they have a cardbord version of one...but i want one with lights and sounds and i can insert my haslab trap into. (that sounds weirder then i meant to sound lol)

I HOPE hasbro at some point makes a Real Ghostbusters version of the Pack and Wand and not have it just be a blue paint job of this one. I think they could do it as a haslab campaign, but who knows. Maybe thats what they announce for Ghostbusters Day next month!

[RealGBVenkman]

Checked my bank account this morning and Hasbro took payment for my Proton Pack. Expecting an email regarding shipping soon. Really pleased that I also have some 3D printed mounting brackets from Dirt Farmer Industries coming as well. I got the LC-1 style to mount to my Alice pack frame. Not since I got my Real Ghostbusters Proton Pack from Kenner toys in the 1980's have I been this excited.

[Moonraker]

I pre-ordered 2 packs. One order was placed on June 2025 and the other placed January 2026. I was only charged for 1 pack, pre-ordered in January. I inquired to Hasbro to make sure there was no issue with my order. They responded by saying they are receiving inventory in batches and are fulfilling orders. So anyone out there who hasn't been charged and your info is good, it's coming. They just haven’t reached you on the list yet.

[yourbigpalal83]

Question...how are you guys displaying your packs? Wall mounts, display cabnets? etc...ideally id like to display mine (Ill have both the Spengler pack and now the 84 pack) in a "Functional" Display like they are on charging stands...idk how id go about that...and which Alice Frame is best to use on them cause i bought one off amazon for the spengler pack, and it mounts no problem but the straps SUCK..they keep unhooking no matter what i do. Did you guys also upgrade the hoses? The hose on my stock Spengler pack IS STIFF as hell...i might leave the spengler pack stock sans the current or upgraded alice frame but the 84 pack, i want that to be a bit more..."wearable" as in that be the one i wear out on halloween or something like that.

God i wish i had the money id buy 12 of them if i could. 4 to leave in the 84 configuration...4 to upgrade to the Frozen Empire 2.0 packs, and 4 just to individualize. (diffrent color bumpers, turn 1 into the video game pack, etc).

I was planning to just get a Rothco LC-1 frame on Amazon and the kit AJ will offer here. I saw some guitar stands that are in the ballpark of the Hasbro Spengler Pack stand that are on Amazon but if I put the frame on, that might interfere with the stand so now I'm not so sure. If anyone has a Spengler pack, could you verify that with frame on it still can mount on the provided stand? The long term goal is to find a decent display face and a stand.

Yeah, I was going to wait and see if the hose quality changed at all with this '84 pack before I look into replacing it.

Ha ha, whenever I see a fan made TVG pack that operates, a big grin always forms. Some are a real masterpiece.

[yourbigpalal83]

Did you ever see the phoenix pack? (I think it was called that) it was this black and silver trimmed proton pack with the ejectable rods and had this lighting effect from the pack up the hose to the Wand. Amazing work. Like, id buy that if i had serious money. This thing was a masterpiece! Ill see if i can find a video of it on here....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FaHYNbWBls
