Back at SDCC we got wind of a new Playmates Toys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover – TMNT x Ghostbusters. The concept was awesome, and now that we’ve got them in hand – they came out phenomenal! These are basic figures from an articulation standpoint but are large – a bulky 6 inch scale. Each Turtle mimics a Ghostbuster from the original movies – Mikey is Venkman, Leo is Ray, Donny is Egon, and Raph is Winston. It’s weird seeing the Turtles with hair, but it works great here. Mixed with the facial expressions, they capture the OG Ghostbusters perfectly while keeping their Turtles signature colors. Each come with a PKE meter, a proton pack, ghost trap and ghost. The ghosts are based on ones from the movies with Slimer, the Librarian, Terror Dog, and Subway Ghost. Each of those are done in translucent plastic and are hollowed out, but can stand on their own.

All in all it’s a fun crossover set that both collectors and kids can pick up and enjoy. They will be exclusive to Target later in October and retail for $19.99 each. We ran them through a set so read on to check them out!

A couple of new Voltron listings have been posted by Big Bad Toy Store. The new pre-orders describe an all-new Classic Lion Voltron! The figures are being produced by Playmates Toys. One is for a stand alone Black Lion and the other is for a Classic Voltron Gift Set featuring the other four Lions. Voltron will stand at 16″ tall when fully assembled. The listings originally appeared last week, but images were quickly removed as they were not approved for publication. They are listed for release this December. Check out the available details below.

When Zarkon’s forces threaten peace, it is up to the Lions of Voltron to defend the universe from their evil! The Black Lion is a smart fighter, seeming to stay one step ahead of any attacker. It’s also the hardest robotic lion to fly, and demands the most energy from its pilot. If the pilot is strong enough, the Black Lion seems ready to fly and fight forever, and can beat almost any opponent.
