Optimus Prime Becomes a Ghostbuster for This Wacky SDCC Exclusive ‘Transformers’ x ‘Ghostbusters’ Toy!
The Ghostbusters and Transformers franchises collide this year for a limited comic book series from IDW as well as a mash-up “Ectotron” toy, and Polygon lets us know this week that another mash-up toy is being sold exclusively at San Diego Comic-Con next month!
The 9.5″ figure of Optimus Prime re-imagines the iconic Transformers character as a ghost-buster, and he transforms into a Ghostbusters-themed and branded semi truck!
Polygon details, “The trailer converts into a ghost-busting base when Optimus is in his robot form, and comes complete with maintenance supplies and a ghost trap. You can even wear the packaging itself like a proton pack, if you need help with some last-minute cosplay.”
This exclusive “Ecto-35” toy will be selling at SDCC (July 18-21) for $149.99.
The 1980s horror-comedy cult classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space continues to be a merchandising powerhouse, with the franchise joining both the Monster High doll line and Spirit Halloween’s Horror Babies prop line this year already. But that’s not all, as Syndicate Collectibles has announced that they’ve got the Killer Klowns toy license as well!
Syndicate Collectibles has shown off the first action figure in their upcoming Killer Klowns from Outer Space retro-style toy line, which brings the red-haired Rudy to your collectibles shelf.
The company previews, “Inspired by the classic toy aisles of the past and one of the most beloved cult horror films ever made, Rudy comes packaged on a full-color retro-style card and includes his signature popcorn blaster accessory.” They tease, “More Klowns are on the way.”
Syndicate’s Rudy action figure will be going up for pre-order soon, and it features five points of articulation. While you wait, check out the official in-package sneak peek down below.
