Diamond Select Toys Brings “The Real Ghostbusters” to Toy Fair

Published

The cartoon versions of the Ghostbusters may be as beloved as the movie versions, and I’m of course referring to “The Real Ghostbusters” when I say that. The animated series, a spinoff of the original film, ran from 1986 until 1991, and the colorful versions of Venkman, Spengler, Zeddemore and Stantz are soon returning to the toy shelf!

It was of course Kenner who released the original “Real Ghostbusters” toy line, but it’ll be Diamond Select Toys who brings them back with a new line of action figures.

Diamond Select is showing off their upcoming “Real Ghostbusters” wave at Toy Fair, including Venkman, Spengler, Zeddemore, Stantz, Stay Puft and Slimer!

NECA Leatherface

It’s a big year for Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, as the 1970s horror classic celebrates its 50th anniversary. In addition to a new map in Gun Interactive’s video game, which is launching on March 28, we also know that a 50th anniversary 4K set is on the way.

Additionally, NECA has previewed two brand new Leatherface toys that will be releasing this year, both of them based on the horror classic that started the franchise back in 1974.

Part of the Toony Terrors line, they’re based on two different Leatherface outfits.

The company previews, “Bring the fun of Saturday morning cartoons to your horror collection with the adorable little creeps of Toony Terrors, NECA’s line of stylized horror icons!

“We are thrilled to kick off the 50th anniversary celebration of the 1974 film Texas Chainsaw Massacre with two new Leatherface 6-inch scale Toony action figures. Get a fresh take on our classic Leatherface figure with this version featuring new bloody deco and updated chainsaw deco. Also available is an all-new, fan requested version of Leatherface in his “Pretty Woman” look, complete with chainsaw and iconic armadillo display base.”

Both figures come in commemorative 50th anniversary blister card packaging with cut-out cardbacks featuring original art by NECA painter Geoff Trapp.

The 50th anniversary toys are set to begin shipping in June 2024.
