Master Replica Replicates Ghostbusters

Great news for all you Ghostheads that have always wanted to enjoy ghostbusting without all that hard work of buildling the props yourself. Master Replicas had this official announcement on Halloween:

“-Ghost Trap Limited Edition 1:1 scale with lights, sounds and other features. ETA: Spring 2009

-Proton Pack Limited Edition 1:1 scale with lights, sounds and other features. ETA: Fall 2009

Other products will be announced shortly. This is only the beginning!

  3. A Great Dane
  4. The Crying Old Baby

And there you have it. I’ll keep everyone posted as more information rolls in.
