Ghostbuster Plasma Series:

Peter Venkman

Today we will be taking a look at Peter Venkman from the brand new Plasma series from Hasbro.

Collectors can imagine slimy struggles and eerie ecto-encounters from the Ghostbusters Universe with figures from the Ghostbusters Plasma Series! Featuring premium design, detailing, and articulation, this highly poseable collection of action figures embodies the quality and realism Ghostbusters fans are looking to trap. The Ghostbusters Plasma Series includes figures and vehicles from the Ghostbusters entertainment.

PACKAGING:

Before we open this up, let's take a look at the packaging.

Peter comes in what is the standard box for this new Plasma Series

The front of the box Has the word GHOSTBUSTERS running down the left side of the box, Peter and all his accessories are displayed in the middle of the box. The GHOSTBUSTERS Ghost logo is at the bottom with Peter’s name. The background of the box is made to look like the suit for all Ghostbusters.

Turning the box to the side we have some artwork of each of the four Ghostbusters.

On the back of the box we have a little bio for Peter, THE MAN WITH THE MOUTH: PETER CAN CONVINCE (ALMOST) ANYBODY OF (ALMOST) ANYTHING. in the middle of the box, we have the rest of the lineup, PETER VENKMAN, RAY STANTZ, EGON SPENGLER, WINSTON ZEDDEMORE, DANA BARRETT, GOZER. we also have a picture of the VINZ CLORTHO Build A Figure.

Turning the box around one more time we have a little bit of the window wrapping around so we can see the figure from the side. This is a nice touch for any collector that wants to keep the figure mint inbox.

OUTSIDE OF THE BOX:

Let's open the box and take a closer look at the figure.

Taking Peter out of the box, it looks like Hasbro pretty much nailed the Ghostbusters outfit. I would say the figure itself could have been a little better if the plastic was a little darker or had a wash over it. The 3D printed Peter face isn’t that bad, looks like Bill Murray.

RATING:

What are Baby Huey's scores for the figure?

PAINT JOB 3/5

Overall there isn’t much paint for the figure. The suit could benefit from a black wash. The proton pack has a little bit of paint but hey more is always better.
