Equipment

Many Real Ghostbusters role playing toys were released during the run of the cartoon, a lot of them based on the ones from the movie, including the Ghost Nabber (ghost sniffer) and Ecto-Charger pack (Slime Blower). Many of these items are for sale on eBay, and depending on their condition, can cost from $10.00 to over $100.00. The full equipment line was;

Proton Pack: Came with the pack, gun, a PKE Meter (which could be stored into a groove on the backpack), Ghost logo arm band, foam piece which represented the proton stream, and ID Card. The gun had a trigger which simulated the sound of a proton stream. Side of the pack had a hook to hold the gun on.

PKE Meter: Came as part of the Proton Pack set. The PKE meter differed from the one on the RGB cartoon in that it had a third "antenna" in the middle of the main two. The sensor antennae array on the toy did not retract but, was able to be spun using a wheel on the back of the toy. The sensitivity knobs on the side were molded and static, while the one on the face of the toy could be turned.

Ecto-Charger Pack: I.E. Slime Blower from Ghostbusters 2. A trigger activated a pink piece of plastic to extend out to simulate slime.

Ecto-Headphones with Radar Blaster: Came with a pair of headphones that had an orange knob you could twist which made the antenna spin. The radar blaster shot out a long red dart. The box had cut-outs on the back you could use as targets.

Ecto-Goggles and Ecto-Popper: The Ecto-Goggles were much like the ones in the series. The goggles were a translucent blue with places to hold the 4 pink foam darts on the sides of the goggles. There were two ye pieces, one longer than the other. The Ecto-Popper was a small gun that, when pressed, would fire out the pink darts.

Ghost Nabber: This toy was like the "sniffer" used by Peter in the original Ghostbusters movie. It was a small blue box with an over-the-shoulder strap and an extendable wand that could be used to capture the three ghosts that the toy came with. When pressed the wand extended and latched onto the ghosts. Then the box could be opened and the ghosts could be placed inside.

Ghost Grab-A-Meter: This toy was purple and orange. The trigger at the back would close up the arm at the front of the gun and when it was completely shut a dart would be fired from underneath the gun. The dart fires from a small green tube that could be moved to the side of the gun where the trigger does not interact with the dart launcher. There was also a sight that could be pulled up on the top of the gun.
