Thursday, October 25th, 2012 by Pixel Dan
This is the 7th video in Phantom Dan’s 13 Days of Halloween Toy Reviews!
Mattel’s Ghostbusters line appears to be winding down, and the final figure of 2012 comes in the form of Courtroom Battle Ray Stantz, complete with Tony Scholeri!
Join me for an advanced look at this upcoming figure from Mattel!
Courtroom Battle Ray will be available on http://www.MattyCollector.com on November 15th, 2012!
I wish Neca could take this line back over. Mattel dropped the ball in so many areas. Most of these figures didnt even come with proton streams, had average head sculpts, and shared figure bodies. The Neca slimer is still amazing
but NECA couldn't get Bill Murray's likeness, while Mattel could. And I don't believe they were planning on doing any ghosts from Ghostbusters II.
if this is the last figure it's a shame … seeing as we didn't get a janosz or a janine … or a courtroom egon to round that scene off … heck, i would have bought a figure of the mayor! …
i've been collecting this line since it started and overall i've been pleased – we got a GB's line after all, something i never thought would happen … i, just like most other folks, just think it could have been handled a lot better … more characters, less repaints etc. …
it's a shame that a brand like GB's just looks like it's going to disappear from matty's shelves … i just think it could have been handled a bit better than it has been …

The problem is Mattel ran the Ghostbusters line like they run the Masters of the Universe Classics line, and they expected the same results. They were hoping they could just swap bodies and heads with repaints, and pass them off as new characters. The problem is, as we all know, is that re-use of parts is expected in the Masters of the Universe Classics line and not tolerated in a Ghostbusters line. Mattel trying to cut costs is what killed this line. They use Vigo as proof that the line wasn’t doing well because of fan interest. But, the proof of the matter is, that fans has lost interest long before Vigo due to cheap figures and an uninspiring “road map” in order to produce low cost figures.
