The newest Ghostbusters Select Action Figures are in stores now from Diamond Select Toys. After completing their massive Roof Top Diorama from the first Ghostbusters film, they set their sites on the second film. Starting with Ghostbusters Series 6, fans will be able to assemble the front of the Ghostbusters Firehouse by collection Series 6 through 10. Each figure will include pieces to the diorama, including both Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2 signage to hang over the doorway. Most of the figures will deal with the second film, with the last couple waves including figures from The Real Ghostbusters cartoon series! Today we are taking a look at the first two assortments of the Firehouse Diorama waves; Ghostbusters Select Series 6 and Series 7.

  • Vigo the Carpathian
  • Ray Stantz “We’re Back” Version

At Toy Fair 2018, we got our first look at the entire series of figures that will make up the Diamond Select Toys Ghosbusters Firehouse Diorama Assortment. While Ghostbusters Select Series’ 1 through 5 allowed fans to build the massive Ghostbusters Rooftop Diorama, Series’ 6 through 10 allow fans to build the front of the Firehouse. The biggest surprise for fans is that Series 9 and 10, the final two waves, bring us figures based on The Real Ghostbusters cartoon series! Check out a press release below, along with photos of all the figure and the firehouse after the jump.

This week, Ghostbusters Select Series 6 ships to comic and specialty stores, and it marks a new era of Ghostbusters products from Diamond Select Toys. After completing the rooftop diorama with Series 1-5, all of which were based on the original film, Series 6 is based on Ghostbusters 2, and includes the first pieces of the firehouse doors!

“We’re Back” Ray Stanz, Geared Up Louis Tully and Vigo the Carpathian launch the Ghostbusters 2 line, with exclusive diorama pieces in Select packaging at comic shops and specialty stores. Non-diorama versions are at Toys”R”Us in thinner packaging, and both include accessories and interchangeable parts.

Ray and Louis each come with a proton pack, walkie talkie, ghost trap, alternate hands and proton stream. Ray, in his grey jumpsuit, comes with additional gloved hands and a removable Santa hat, as seen in Ghostbusters 2. The Select versions of Ray and Louis each come with a front door of the firehouse, while the Select version of Vigo the Carpathian comes with the sign from Ghostbusters 2, as well as a corner segment of the building.

Pre-orders are open for Series 7, with “We’re Back” Egon Spengler in grey, Slime Blower Winston Zeddemore and museum employee Janosz Poha. Janosz will be exclusively available at comic shops and specialty stores, in Select packaging, with Oscar, a lenticular disappearing Vigo painting, and a pair of baby-holding hands for Vigo. Instead of Janosz, Toys”R”Us will get a translucent Terror Dog with two sets of horns. They should ship this summer.

Series 8 just opened for pre-orders with “We’re Back” Peter Venkman, “We’re Back” Winston and Slime Blower Ray, all of whom should arrive this fall.

Just unveiled at the New York Toy Fair, Series 9 and 10 of the Ghostbusters line will feature the Real Ghostbusters, from the 1980s cartoon of the same name. Egon, Winston and Slimer star in Series 9, with all new heads and gear for Egon and Winston, and new faces (and a bus driver hat) for Slimer. Series 10 will feature Peter, Ray and a fully articulated 9-inch Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man. Each will come with a piece of the firehouse diorama at comic shops and specialty stores, and they will be solicited for pre-orders later this year, for a winter release.

Track down Series 1-6 at your local comic shop, or order from your favorite online retailer!
