Wasn't at either of my local Targets today. ;-; Hope I can grab one online when they're put up before they sell out.

When showing off the two pack they called it spores/mold/fungus, but it looks more like mood slime to me too. Maybe they just can't come right out and say it?

In yesterday's Fan First Monday, you get a better look at it. Looks like a typical rotted piece tree with fungus growing out of it, imo.

It does look more like the Mood Slime jars. The spores, mold and fungus were in tiny containers.

Star Action Figures UK got the Louis Tully set in - but I think Amazon and Zavvi maybe did too. Possibly not as limited?

Checked Amazon and Zaavi cause i bought the other figures there. Guess I just have to be a little patient before the 2 pack gets listed there.

Has anyone found the Egon/Phoebe pack already online? I saw it was out for preorder earlier on UK but is all sold out and Ebay is listing a lot for over 100$.

Nothing shows up on Target website... any other sources?

Anyone able to get a really clean scan of the artwork on the left side of the Phoebe 2 pack box?

I understand this selling out in the US due to being Target store exclusive…

But how in the @!?£& did this sell out across all five major UK retailers already? Did they all put their pages up at the same time and scalpers were waiting on all of them?

Star Action Figures are relatively obscure and reliable for this sort of thing and they sold out already. Frustrating to think a scalper was out there targeting these. “I won’t pay it!”

Has the "The Family That Busts Ghosts Together" set actually been released in the UK yet? It seems possible the pages are marked as sold out because they haven't received their stock yet.

From what I saw it did and sold out instantly.
UPDATE: I guess the OFFICIAL Hasbro 🇬🇧 release is today. Looks like other 🇬🇧 retailers jumped the gun.

Wow 100CAD/ 80USD on Zavvi. Is that price acurate to the Target one?

Re: Hasbro Ghostbusters

MSRP is $48.99! Zavvi would be 66€ for me. No, thank you. Gonna wait for some other opportunity. Same insane prices as amazon Germany.

So basically Zavvi almost doubled the price WOW!

Any other possible upcoming Cheaper sources based on rpevious releases? I don't want to miss on this one, but not willing to pay 105Cad for it tbh

I hate that this 2 pack is a Target exclusive here. I haven't seen Ghostbusters merch on the shelves in a LONG time and I have this gut feeling I'm going to have to cave to scalper prices to get one. No idea why they didn't make this a Pulse exclusive

It REALLY is ridiculous. They know DAMN WELL it would be the most sought after item...and then made it an exclusive. FFS.

So seems that Target website now has listed the item at 48$ as said previously, and offers delivery. But just for US. What About Canada for exmaple? I'm going nuts to get one of these wihtotu having to pay 200$

I managed to snag ONE today thanks to the website FINALLY showing these. My local FOUR Targets sold out before I could get one... ended up going to one an hour away to get it. Tried to get a couple more for friends, but no luck.

If this was going to be exclusive, it should've been Pulse like the Louis/Vinz 2 pack.

My local target said it had six in stock so I reserved one for pickup hoping for the best. Went to pick it up and the other 5 were mysteriously missing. I wanted to grab another for a friend who was looking for one. Worker couldn't find them on the shelf or anywhere out back. I felt very lucky to get the one I got.

All out of stock within a 50 mile radius of Tampa. Luckily, I was able to order one at a Target on the east coast, as I have family there who were able to pick it up for me.

I may have scored a certain SDCC exclusive last night, for almost MSRP. Considering ebay prices that was a great find.

So, GI Joe and Star Wars get extra incentives outside of their tier incentives to bolster their failing campaigns, while Ghostbusters did just fine, but might not quite get all of their tier incentivesin time…WTF? That stand for the pack should be a gimme if all those turds get extras. Or how about a second set of the second tier mini-puffs so we can display all six heads?

The Rancor is doing so badly, there's no way it's going to happen. T hey could include a to-scale X-Wing for free and it'd barely help. The skystriker has a better shot, but only JUST. The pack is happening. We're getting it for a steal. We also don't know if they might just toss the stand in for free. Do I expect them to? Nah. Am I okay with that? Sure. A guitar stand is like $15.

I decided to backnit last night. I've passed on all other previous prop replicas, but a full blown pack for about $580 after tax isn't bad (including the price of the wand).

I hope we see a PKE meter that can go into the new mode and another trap. The Matty trap hoes for crazy amounts. I really wish I had bought the Matty props back in the day.

Whats everyone's opinion on Phoebe+Egon pack?

It's obvious a company would make this $20 product look like an exclusive so it sells for $100.

But it appears sold out everywhere. Do we think it will sell in normal places/prices in a few months?

It did sell for it's normal price at Target, and largely around the standard retail price in the listings for it in the UK... The problem is that in making it an exclusive Hasbro turned it into scalper fodder.

I guess I’m wondering when the Ecto plazm vials, the ectoplazm lab and the ghost gushers will be available in stores? I assume the bulk of the ghostbusters merch is in crates in the ocean due to the problem of the current situation?

Also...are we to give up on the GB cereal ever being widely available? It was so limited this summer. I saw it once in a Walmart then it sold out and never returned!
