Ghostbusters Trivia

The role of Winston was originally written for Eddie Murphy and Gozer was originally going to be played by Paul Reubens, who turned down the role. In the original script, Gozer appeared as a normal man in a business suit. 

Ecto 1

One of the most iconic vehicles in cinema history. The Ecto 1 burst onto the scene in 1984 in Ghostbusters. Our first shot of the "finished" Ecto 1 was during the GB's first call to the Hotel Sedgewick.  When the firehouse doors opened and Ecto 1 came tearing out and raced right over, fans fell in love.

Here are a some shots of Ecto 1 from my personal collection.

Hotwheels variation on Ecto1a.











Hallmarks Ecto 1 ornament with siren sound.












Kenner's 1986 Ecto 1. Based on the cartoon series The Real Ghostbusters.

This particular car is actually an Ecto 1a. The same mold of car was released with only a new box, stickers, and ghost. When I bought this one I removed all the old stickers with the exception of the rear windshield. (I liked that Slimer was included.) I then cleaned the car up to its current condition and reprinted the stickers from the original release.

















This plain looking variation is my favorite. The reason being is that it is a complete 1990 Kenner Ecto 1a.
The original box, sticker sheets, adverisements/etc. are all in great condition.

Disturbance on the 12th floor

For some reason...I'm in a Ghostbusters type of mood. So for the next half a day or so I'll be sharing my obsession with you; as well as the usual crap I post. Enjoy!

 
Here's a deleted scene from the Hotel Sedgewick. This most likely would have prompted the hotel to give the boys their first call.

Happy Mothers Day!

To my wife...mother...and all the mothers out there...

Brutal!

In the words of Dethklok...that movie was brutal! Not in a good way. However the character that played Dr. Wiley would make a great Murderface if there was ever a live action Metalocalypse movie made.

The one good thing that I got from the film, is that it got me thinking of Dethklok...which led me to this...
