Seems like only McFarlane and Hasbro are doing comic based figures. Hot Toys is just starting to get into it. They tend to be cheaper than Mondo 1/6th, as well, but they're also not specific to one artist and generally don't really have that off the page quality. I don't want to get off topic with this, but if you're not familiar, google "Hot Toys Hono" or "Hono Studio."

I can echo this on both counts.
It's why I've owned five She-Ras and only ordered two.
Damn, I don't know if I'd be able to bite on these, but the sculpts and paint are fantastic. They look like they just jumped off the screen.

So evidently they will be single releases as well. Not sure if that helps anyone but it might if you're just wanting the busters and no ghosts.
I like Mondo overall as a company and I think they do incredible work. But these Ghostbusters for this price is not adding up. This is going to be a hard pass for me.
20 hours ago, Cxb452 said:Mondo doesn't do cheap, either in quality or price. If they're charging $101 for a 6" Ghostbuster expect it to be the definitive version of that character.
I get it. I have some Mondo BTAS figures. It's just 6" figures at that price, is out of my price range.
