We’ve got another exciting Ghostbusters Day update, writes Jason at Ghostbusters News, as in celebration of the franchise’s 40th anniversary, Hasbro Pulse just teased the next Ghostbusters HasLab!
In a post made to Hasbro Pulse’s various social accounts, a reimagined version of the classic no-ghost logo was featured, strongly hinting at a crowdfunding campaign centered around the iconic film car, the Ecto-1!
As this is just a teaser and not an official announcement, further details, including the scale of the supposed Ectomobile, are currently unavailable. However, it’s reasonable to assume that it will be made in a 1:12 scale, perfectly matching Hasbro’s pre-existing Ghostbusters Plasma Series. Again, we must emphasize that Hasbro has not confirmed anything, and this is merely an educated guess on our part.

An Ecto-1 HasLab project would serve as the third crowdfunded Ghostbusters campaign, with previous offerings being 1:1 scale prop items. This includes the Ghostbusters: Afterlife Spengler Proton Pack, which achieved over 19,000 backers on a goal of 7,000, and, most recently, the Two in the Box bundle containing both a Ghost Trap and PKE Meter, which surpassed its goal of 10,000 with nearly 25,000 backers. Given those numbers, we wouldn’t be surprised to see the Ecto-1 campaign achieve similar success when it launches this fall.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
