How's it goin', everybody!
Sebastian here, bringing you another statue unboxing. And it has been far too long since we've done
a statue of this size. And, if you haven't guessed it by now, it is Ghostbusters related.
It is the Hollywood Collectibles Group Peter Venkman 1:4 scale exclusive statue.
I've actually got it right here at my feet. Although, it's incredibly heavy so I'm probably not
going to be holding on to this for the entirety of the monologue.
This is edition number 22 of 250 and will cost you $399.95, I'm actually gonna set this back down.
[Exhale] That's a big Twinkie.
Now, what makes this exclusive is a static Ghost Trap that sits at Peter Venkman's feet on the base.
I cannot wait to get inside of this box, I feel like I've been hit with mood slime.
So let's not wait any longer and get to unboxing.
Alrighty guys, on the front of the box we have a closeup shot of Peter Venkman holding the neutrona wand
with the Hollywood Collectibles Group logo up top.
On to the left side of the box, we've got a full-body shot of the back of the figure, featuring the Proton Pack.
On the back of the box we have our production information. Edition number 22 of 250,
hollywood-collectibles.com, Sony Pictures, along with some copy about the production of the figure itself.
On to the right side of the box, we have a front shot of the full body of the figure, and back to the beginning.
So, with that, let's get inside.
[Styrofoam squeaking nervously]
Alrighty, guys. Now that we have the top of the box removed, I'm getting really excited.
We have our base, I can see the gloved hands and Neutrona Wand here, we have Peter Venkman himself,
the Proton Pack that looks to connect to this peg that's attached to the back of the Alice Frame,
and we have our exclusive Ghost Trap. Alrighty guys, let's take a closer look at some of the smaller parts.
Alrighty, guys. I decided to start off with the really, really awesome "No Ghost" logo base,
one of the most iconic logos of any fictional organization in film and television history.
It's got a nice sheen to it, the paint is very, very even and it has really, really nice heft to it.
That just looks really good. So many childhood memories coming back.
Hey, adult memories. I love the Ghostbusters.
Let's take a look at the bottom of the base. Here, we go: "Ghostbusters Edition number 22/250"
This is the exlusive edition. "Hollywood Collectibles Group, Sony Pictures, hollywood-collectibles.com"
Very, very nice. It's also got a good thickness there. Very lovely.
Let's move on to all the accessories we're gonna hook up to Doctor Venkman.
Alrighty, guys. First up is the Neutrona Wand and it looks amazing. In fact, the only thing right off the bat that
I'm seeing that's missing is the V-hook on the bottom of the Neutrona Wand.
They actually use little green and red wires to simulate the cabling.
We have our hose that connects to the back of the proton pack.
This is amazing miniaturization work and it may be tough to see, but this "Danger" label,
the "Clippard" label and even the "Activate" and "Intensify" on the switches is legible.
THAT is amazing work and I cannot wait to see the rest of it.
Let's go take a look at the Proton Pack.
Here we have the Proton Pack. I love the paint job here to make it look like the Cyclotron is lighting up.
We have our blue LED indicators, all of the stickers, we have the "Danger" one on the N-filter
along with the circuit diagram. "Danger," "Warning," beautiful, beautiful stuff. Even the "Clippard " label
is legible here. We have more stickering there, we have another one right up top,
and our final sticker is right on the back , "Danger."
This is absolutely gorgeous. I love this. Let's move on to the Trap.
Alrighty guys. The last, but certainly not least, is the exclusive Ghost Trap that comes with this
edition of Peter Venkman. Amazing fine detailing work here as well.
It is a static piece, that means it doesn't light up, nor do the doors open. But that is A-okay.
Just the amount of detailing, all of the beautiful paintwork here to get it nice and weathered.
Awesome, awesome stuff. C'mon, there's even a tiny little circuit diagram right down here on the foot pedal.
That's amazing. Gorgeous, gorgeous work. Even on the underside, fully painted with
the wheels and the bottom plates. The only thing missing, again, is a V-hook.
But it's such a minute detail that it is unnecessary. This is awesome and I can't wait to see Peter Venkman,
so let's get to assembly.
[Assembles Peter Venkman stealthily]
The piece is fully assembled, guys, and it is absolutely awesome.
That head sculpt by Trevor Grove is simply stunning and looks exactly like Bill Murray.
And, you know what, I'll leave the link down below in the description to Trevor's Deviantart page
where he frequently posts works in progress of the sculpts that he does for many other studios.
Everything on this looks good. Even though it is not a cloth flight suit, like the Sideshow Premium Format
1:4 scale items, the sculpting on it is beautiful. The suit isn't clean, it's got great shading to it,
the color tones are really nice. And even just the small details like the brass zippers on the flight suit
bring it all together. And talk about fine detailing, things like the hose that attaches to the leg,
to the back of the belt, the belt gizmo, his Motorola walkie-talkie, all of the sticker work done on the Trap,
Neutrona Wand and Proton Pack, all of the wiring.
Beautiful, beautiful stuff. I mean, that patch and "No Ghost" logo on the jumpsuit look fantastic.
This has a proud spot on my shelf from now on and I cannot wait to get the rest of the guys.
Thank you, Hollywood Collectibles, for making an amazing 1:4 scale Ghostbusters statue.
I've wanted one of these since I started collecting and I'm so happy to have the first part
to a great set, when the rest of the guys come out.
Thank you very much for watching, guys. As always, it is much appreciated. I will catch you next time.
