Mattel addresses some slight delays with the release of their popular Ghostbusters action figure line. Here's what they had to say on their MattyCollector.com Facebook page:



Hey Slime Fans,

I wanted to jump in and give a quick update on what is going on with the GB line in 12" and 6" scale. We've had a few delays in release dates, but all six 6" figures and the Peter and Winston 12" figures are still set for release in 2010.

Orignally we had intended for a new 6" figure to ship every 2-3 months. But, inevitably due to circumstances well beyond our control we had a few hickups (this is why we don't do preorders for any of our lines!). But we are back online now and 6" Walter Peck is scheduled to hit Mattycollector.com in May. This will be followed by Slimed Peter in June and Labcoat Ray in Aug.

12" Peter will hit in April followed by Winston in Aug.

We're running a bit behind but by the end of the year we should be caught up and ready for even more Ghostbuster fun in 2011!

There will be three more 6" figure for 2010 yet to reveal plus a really great SDCC item that will knock your socks off! The Ghostbuster fun has only yet begun - only on Mattycollector.com!

Man I hope some other company gets a crack at this someday. These just really do not cut it at all.

I have to agree with you, these look rather poor considering Ghostbusters is such a main stream movie franchise, with a new one on the way. Ghostbusters 3 (http://www.ghostbusters3-movie.com)!
