As many have helpfully pointed out in the comments, Habro have since come out and confirmed that the decals will be reusable, at least for a few changes between both Ecto versions. Which is very good news 😊 🚫👻
Agreed! I was just going to post that. The Blitzway Ecto 1 is a sight to behold and at 1/6 scale it is a big boy but to me this 1/12 Haslab Ecto 1 is a dream come true. Yes it is smaller but I really don't feel like I am missing anything from the Blitzaway version plus you get the Ecto 1A and figures at a fraction of the price of the Blitzway Ecto 1. Now if I can only find a Plasma Series Egon figure to complete my orginal Ghostbusters team. If anyone knows where I can find one at a decent price, please post.
The Haslab guys have confirmed they’re decals not stickers and can be removed to flip between Ecto 1 and the Ecto 1A. But they will only be able to be changed a few times before they start to deteriorate
^ this is correct. Many people who have been to the event confirmed. The decals will be reusable few times. Not sure about what the few means. They said they'll pack in good amount of extras. They will not be magnetic as the car is all plastic. :)
@daveellis3048 I saw that too, definitely a good thing that they have made the decals reusable. I'm sure the majority of people aren't going to swap between them a huge number of times anyway
I am interested to know the point where you said "it may be not the perfect one". Curious to know what they could have done better at this price point?
My display is a glass cabinet. Im planning on using the decal on one side and not use it on the other side. That way i can choose to display it on ecto1 or ecto1A mode just by changing the orientation. 😂
I'm getting it to go with the Real Ghostbusters Mondo because I think they will scale nicely. Do you think Mondo will ever make a Real Ghostbusters Ecto-1?
@@davidwood8044 I heard they are selling them as two packs with one Ghostbuster and a ghost but also individually Ghostbusters solo so you can get just the 4. Do you think Mondo could ever make an Ecto-1?
he did say, it’s decals not stickers and it’s removable. Not sure what it means either…but imagine it’s one of those things printed plastics sheets that we kids in the 80’s -90’s use to get that would stick on glass or other plastic surface area like a glossy scenery sheet. I remembered those were removable ..maybe it’s those kind of decals that’s based on friction..sorta like plastic contacts, or a plastic food wrap sticking on a porcelain bowl type of friction. If that’s the case then definitely all you need is the deluxe set and just convert as you see fit.
Ugh it sucks now because its looking like we wont get that tully figure because the funding on this isn't moving in time for the 2 week time line.... i know it is expensive but for what we are getting its really worth the price
I would much rather have another prop. I'm not that in to giant figure accessories. Really having a hard time deciding if i want this. Not sure where i would even display it.

Not GB fan or one of haslabs ( never ) but i enjoyed your take on it. As far as the same 4 guys ..well thats GB isnt it ? Thats why that line has died a 1000 deaths .
I bought 2 of them so I can have 1 of each that's the easiest way to have both without switching out the decals i know that's costly and most can't buy 2 of them
They may use vinyl stickers which can be peeled on and off many times, worst case scenario they are normal stickers and then Etsy people will sell their own sheets for people to buy and rebrand as many times as they want. Either way I'm passing on this because the scale is too big for my taste, and also pricey.
To me this feels too little too late, it’s been 3-4 years since the last plasma series figure products, personally I’ve settled with the LEGO Ecto-1 for my figures, it retails for £180 and is roughly 1/12 scale, this new haslab feels too much than what I’m willing to pay, i would’ve considered if it were around £200-£250
I’m in the same boat. The Lego "UCS" Ecto-1 won’t fit Plasma series figures, yet looks close enough on display next to them. And it was 240€, not 380€…
This funding has already proved underwhelming for fans as last year's Two in the Box was funded in 24hrs. Back when I was at the June celebrations in NYC, the rumors were already pretty much solid about this Haslab, which proves to be a hard sell even for diehard fans such as myself. They should also give more frequent updates about their previous engagement because the silence cannot be helping much for this campaign.
This is the first Ghostbusters haslab I wasn't immediately all in on and have since decided not to get. I don't like that part of the selling point is interchangeability then they limit that interchangeability with limited decals. the silver paint as opposed to an actual chrome just makes this look like a cheap toy as well. it seems the are almost forcing anyone who wants both versions to buy 2 cars. Also they are definitely maxing out the FOMO with the Tully figure which kind of irritates me. another thing holding me back is the fact that we haven't gotten a hard ship date yet on 2 in the box. I don't particularly collect figures and would have to start if I got this. I think at this price point, for me, I would rather have the Hot Wheels 1/18 cars. I understand if you already collect the figures that this could be a great display piece and I hope those that get it really enjoy it
Hmm. The base model should be cheaper since deluxe is Only 75 bucks more for All that. Smart way of doing it though To squeezed out a little more money....easier for people. But easy for me to say no to ghostbusters 2. Not my favorite
I know... I can't spend the extra 75 bucks for a movie.I really don't care for overall And to put those addons for the car and different colors suits..no. Can. I always get two of things so hundred and fifty bucks saved anyway. I. Know they're just trying to squeeze out a little more money... The 325 probably covers the whole thing with a good profit margin by itself.I'm guessing.. But this makes it look like a great deal then For the deluxef@marccalderon7156

I'm telling you a home run would have been to have a led feature of the library ghost.
I’d have loved a RC trap haslab , I’ve ordered this ecto though and still waiting on my two in a box too
Maybe they’ll make a rc car you can put the trap on top of

prototype for now, things will improve
I love this project and I backed it by buying both versions!
I am interested to know the point where you said "it may be not the perfect one". Curious to know what they could have done better at this price point?
Me too. I wonder how accurate this is. If there's Nothing to pick apart would be wonderful
Led monitor for the signage rather than slides for the start. Plus the ghostbuster figures look pretty cheap tbh
I wonder if the ecto 1 would fit the mezco set
Not easily, but it will. Mezcos are not truly 1:12 scale.
Should do, that's what I'm a pose mine with 👌🏾
They should. This is actually oversized for a 1/12 scale. Per what one of the Haslab guys said.
My display is a glass cabinet. Im planning on using the decal on one side and not use it on the other side. That way i can choose to display it on ecto1 or ecto1A mode just by changing the orientation. 😂
Does anyone think the new Mondo 1:12 scale figures will fit inside this Ecto-1?

@MRCobra-sj4qk is Mondo going to sell just the 4 main characters or are you going to have to buy the ghosts also? If so, I'll pass. I only want the 4.

@@MRCobra-sj4qk probably not because Hasbro is making one now. Mondo would probably design one over $800. 😁

Thanks for the comment! Yeah I saw that too, definitely more positive than single use stickers 👍
Colorforms!
I'd like to see a suited up plasma series Gary Grooberson.
Just have quick release interchangeable doors with the logos already painted on each door.....easy!
Maybe the Santa hats can be in the stretch goals lol

Doesn’t matter if it was die-cast; die-cast metal isn’t magnetic.
To call them decals if they are indeed stickers is somewhat dishonest, because there IS a difference.
Decals Are Not Stickers
Yo does anyone here play ghostbusters spirits unleashed in hosting a server later if anyone wants to play
Plus I’m hyped

Totally fair, you make a good point about it maybe coming 2-3 years too late. thanks for the comment 🙌

I completely agree with you, Its hard to want to shell out 300-800 dollars if we don't have a hard ship date yet on the last one.
