Toys

In 1986, Kenner released a line of toys not for the hit Ghostbusters movie, but for the upcoming cartoon series The Real Ghostbusters. The toy line lasted all the way through the series's demise with several different lines of action figures, playsets, plushes, vehicles, and even full sized role playing weapons. Much like its original Star Wars toys, Kenner's Real Ghostbusters line has withstood the test of time. Mostly simple in design yet very unique, few toys lines before or since have had such diversity and such a large impact on the franchise. In 1997, Trendmasters released a collection of toys and action figures for the Extreme Ghostbusters television show. Although the line failed to reach the scale, scope, and popularity of the original Real Ghostbusters line, there was still a variety of different toys produced. [center][/center][/row][/table]
