Am I reading this right? Are the only figures they're making the Terror Dogs and Gozer, and that's it?

And Slimer with an ectoplasm display base and "munching action", and an 18 inch Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man with a city street display base, interchangable heads, and movable eyes.

There's a big article about it in toyfare #77, but anyway, the first series is just goona be monsters, and series 2 is going to be the actual ghostbusters.

I find it kinda odd that they're waiting until series 2 for the actual Ghostbusters...it's like waiting until the second wave of TMNT figures to include the actual TMNT.

It's due to likeness issues, is what I heard. Bill Murrey is being a pain in the arse about his likeness, just like he was the last time someone did Ghostbuster figures. And also when McFarlane was looking into it. So they're trying to get Murrey to agree, which is why they arn't coming until Series II. If he doesn't sign, it gives them more time to come up with an alternative.

Why are people bitching about likeness in the first place? Why not just model them after the characters in this new comic? They don't look a thing like their respective movie characters if you ask me.

Besides, if someone used MY likeness on an action figure, quite frankly I'd be flattered! I wouldn't care about not being paid a royalty either Those Hollywood swine...

Just read this at http://www.action-figure.com:

"NEW GHOSTBUSTERS IMAGES!!! NECA, masters of snapping up the licenses your crying for, will be cranking out this line in March, or so the reports say. Be on the lookout for The Terrordogs (The Key Master & Gate Keeper), The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, Slimer and Gozer! These images come from the Star Images catalog, used with their consent. Rumor across the show says that NECA told a retailer that they HAVE AQUIRED ALL LIKENESS RIGHTS to the Ghostbusters franchise!! If this is true, the boys in gray should be right around the corner. When we get confirmation on this, you'll be the first to know"
