First Look – Ghostbusters Peter Venkman – TheFwoosh.com
In just over a week, you’ll get your chance to round out your set of 6-inch Ghostbusters when MattyCollector.com puts Peter Venkman up for sale. While it’s still decent, I think the Venkman head sculpt is the one that is most different from the actor’s likeness of the four Ghostbusters. It may be that Bill Murray has a tough face to render, or it could be that this is the slimed edition – perhaps they’ll get a little closer when they get around to releasing Venkman with the non-slimed head.
This Peter Venkman figure is watershed toy in a couple of ways. First, I really like the figure on its own merits – the likeness is good (though I think the un-slimed head shown at SDCC ‘09 was even better, can’t wait for that) and he is functional for some great scene recreation posing. However, as noted, we finally have all of the Ghostbusters together. Remember, 26 years and all that. So I think a lot of people will be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Let's show this prehistoric bitch how we do things downtown.
