So, guessing Blitzway cancelled production on the 1/12 figures?

I asked them on Facebook time ago about the 1/12 figures and they said "It's not fixed yet ", this was the only answer. Maybe for the ToyFair we can get some news.

That's a real letdown. Blitzway's 1/12 scale figures were incredible. Bummer they seem to have disappeared.

I remember seeing the Blitzway figures in a display case a couple years ago. Oddly enough Jillian Holtzmann was also there,proton stream and pack, w/trap, trap open effect and that fearsome arm controller. I think it was lit as well. Any word? Or has it been cancelled?

I assume the 2016 movies failure put an end to that figure. I dont think we have seen any high end figs from that movie

Those were from Soldier Story. Blitzway already released all four of the original GBs in 1/6 scale. Soldier Story has preorders up for Egon and Peter but no one else.

Well I picked these up after having the Soldier Story figures on pre-order for like 2 years now (I'm guessing those just aren't happening).

My dreams of an elaborate night of toy photography were crushed when it turned out to be a lot of work. Four 6th scale figures (and a fog machine) is just kind of a pain to work with, but I took the one pic;

YESSSS! I've been waiting years for this! Definitely going to try to preorder the 4pack... hopefully it doesn't sell out too quickly. Have only ever purchased sixth scale figures through Sideshow and TNS before (Hottoys), these will be my first Blitzway figures.

Depends on the price of me. If i can get them for around 1000 bucks and they arent 2 years out i might actually borrow money to get them...BUT thats a big ask. I want them sure...but im allready 600 plus dollars in the hole for the now 3 mondo figures (Peter Egon and as of yesterday Winston) plus another 800 dollars for both versions of the Haslab Ecto's due out this holiday season...your taking 1500 dollars so far on figures that are still months out from arriving.

I dont know how Blitzway works. Is this a pre order today be in hand in a few weeks to months...or is one of those Pre-order now and have them within 2 years type deals cause if thats the case...im getting tired of waiting months if not a year plus for some items

Well if we go by the BTTF2 DeLorean pre-order they have up now, it says Estimated shipping date : 4Q, 2025. Q4 for this year is 10/1-12/31. That pre-order went up March 20th. So I'd guess the Ghostbusters would release Q1 of 2026, 6-8 months out from pre-ordering. Just a guess tho.

$1200 , but no ghost firehouse sign. Looks like the 3 Pack gets the better slimer, but doesn't look like there's a big price difference between adding Winston to the three pack. But no second head sculpts with individual figures

they would have gotten me for 1000 dollars for all 4, but not for 1200. I get inflation and im sure tariffs play a part in that, but as much of a die hard ghostbusters fan as i am, this is one of those "If i were rich and could easly afford it no problem and not have a 2nd thought" about it, i would but im not and i dont got that kind of cash or the space to display them properly.

Frankly i just dont see 1200 dollars worth of figures here. Yes, keep in mind, your getting 4 of them plus a slimer, If you really stop and think about it, they are all the same figure with the same body, uniform (Sans nametags) same equipment mostly, just different and unique headsculpts, which i dont think are spot on. They are good, no doubt about it, i can tell who each figure is meant to be...but its not worth it for me.

I think the $300 each is the going rate, but yeah pricy. Good news is there should be people dumping their version 1. I originally got blitz way heads on eBay and put them on Mattel bodies. Didn’t look to bad

Im guessing bot driven scalpers scooped up most of the packs and will be reselling them for twice the price.

It's skynet. Our AI overlords got the idea from James Cameron's Chat GPT account. Seriously though, did Blitzway implement any security to prevent the scalping?

from my experience buying the special pack, i had to click refresh constantly from 6:00-6:05. They updated the page with the video during those five minutes, so I had faith they were still working on it. Then, after one refresh, the 'buy it now' button was lit up so I clicked it, input my card info, and order was confirmed.

AND THE INDIVIDUAL FIGURES ARE SOLD OUT AS WELL......DAMN! I was debating maybe in September and October order them 2 at a time...but thats not happening now. Darn it. I know i said id pass on then, and at this point i got no choice...but man if i had the money no problem, i would have loved to have had them. Oh well, the Plasma Series Ecto's and the Mondo Real Ghostbusters Line will have to fill the hole in my heart this year. :(

First look at packaging for Ghostbusters 2.0 figures. (for the record, yeah, the shipping estimate was Q4 2025 then February 2026, then March 2026 but since Blitzway is showing off packaging fingers crossed for the customers that means it finally ships this month)

Man i wish i could have afforded them at the time and have been lucky enough to actually have gotten them. Blitzway makes some wonderful figures, and the 2 Versions of the Ecto 1 they put out are dream items. Man if i was rich, these figures would be one of those get at almost any cost items. To all of you who did manage to get them, enjoy them for me! :(

So some reviews of these figures are out on youtube and from what i've seen so far, in a way I'm kinda glad i missed out on them. Apparently the proton packs have issues with things falling off them right out of the box, and the head sculpts dont look all that great on camera. One reviewer said these figures are a "set them up in a display and dont touch them again" type of figure because the accessories are so delicate you risk breaking them.

I get the proton packs are highly complex items but i have plenty of smaller scale figures of the team where theirs not an issue, so in a way after watching these reviews im kinda glad i missed out on them.

Also, Star Ace makes a comparable figures that while not perfect either, are far cheeper and easer to find that do the job nearly as well (Athough i still cant understand how they got the color of the trap doors wrong).

Big bad toys store had premium 4 set available to preorder again..

I got the ray star ace, it was very meh. Don't pay more than $75. I also got a used present toys ghost hunters venkman. If you can get one around $150, it's not to bad. I really like it for the price.
