    Who ya gonna...okay, I think that line has been beating to death, resuscitated, decapitated, resurrected and nuked at this point. But that doesn't mean we can't use great figures based on the Ghostbusters license.

    And that's what NECA has produced! Okay, so Gozer isn't quite as cool as Vinz, Zuul and the very, very cool Slimer, but I think a lot of that is because we're getting soooo spoiled. The sculpts are great, paint ops solid, and the features are actually pretty damn nifty.

    Over at Poop Shoot, I also review the huget 16" Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. He's a tad more controversial, but whether you like him depends on two simple things - do you like the angry look, and do you like the blue wash? Answer those two questions, and you'll have your overall feeling on this guy.

    The guest review is from Sean Teeter, and covers the new Vintage Original Trilogy Collection Han, Ben and Leia. Check them out at the usual:

    Excellent reviews as always.

    one quick comment...i picked up the terrordogs myself and i noticed the package boasted "9 points of articulation." well...i got 7 of them to move, and i'm pretty sure i know where the other 2 are...there is just NO way of them budging. i also thing you missed one. the neck has an up and down movement farther down towards the body...you can also rotate it a bit at this joint. the other 2 joints that won't move are where the front legs meet the body. i think that makes 9. i'm rather impressed with these figures, but also upset that the joints don't move when the package says there are 9. would have been nice to have those extra joints to make them posed a little bit more differently...
