I was this close to buying the Ghostbusters Fire House Headquarters and about 25 figures w/ accessories for $20 at a swap meet today. I couldn't decide on that or a power drill... After about 10 minutes of trying to decide I went back to get the toys and some dumb elementary school teacher just bought them because her school was having a "Space Week" and she thought ghosts would be applicable.
THOSE FUCKIN' KIDS CAN'T APPRECIATE THAT TOY LIKE I CAN! DAMNIT TO HELL LIFE SUCKS!
ARRRRGHGGGHGHH!

a drill will always be a drill, but a firehouse and 25 figures is once in a lifetime.

I still have pretty much every GB toy in existence. Only problem is a lot of the streams (if not all) from the proton packs are broken off.
Not like it was my fault, really. Those fucking things were long, thin pieces of plastic. They broke off the minute you took them out of the case.

You actually had to think twice about that McClain?
I am hereby revoking your toy collector's license. You have shamed your brethren.

the best one i had was a peter action figure, when you moved his arm down his eyes bulged out, his jar droped and his hiar lifed, then you could twist his hair around to make it look like he had a huge mound of hair in the front and in the back missing his scalp, FUN TIMES

damn! you missed out.
My friend used to have a bunch of Ghostbusters toys. Ecto-1, The Firehouse, Slimer, the GBs, Stay-Puft Marshmellow Man, The Highway Hunter, PKE Meter, and he even had the fucking proton pack! I was always soooo jealous.

Gotta love the Ectomobile. But don't worry about it, man. If you had to think about it, then you probably didn't want it.
