Potential Ghostbusters and MP-10 Optimus Prime Crossover Figure, Encore Graphy, Noise, and Frenzy

Thanks to a post on Snakas Blog complete with listings from a site called Toy Panic (Links in the pictures below), we have news that apparently, there is a 35th Anniversary Ghostbusters/MP-10 Optimus Prime crossover figure coming, and an Encore release of the Decibel Cassettes Graphy and Noise, along with fellow cassette Frenzy.

Handling the easy one first, it appears as though the 3 cassettes are being rereleased, which doesn't come as too much of a surprise following the release of the dino-cassettes this year with the Bumblebee toyline, bringing cassettes back into the spotlight. We only have a place holder picture at this time.

The real oddball here is what if officially called the "MP-10 Convoy X The Real Ghostbusters (Exhibition Limited)" figure, which is apparently another release of the MP-10 mold, complete with trailer, in some sort of Ghostbusters homage. There are supposedly some new parts with this release, and some new logos on the figure and trailer itself. What kind of deco and tools is entirely speculation at this point, as we again only have a place holder image.

Could it be that Optimus is gonna be decoed up like Ecto-1? Could Prime be decoed up in a brown Ghostbusters suit themed paint scheme with a trailer painted to look like a trap? Could it just be a Prime in regular colors and coated in slimer-styled paint apps? Or is it just a Prime in regular colors with some new tools and a Ghostbuster logo instead of a bot symbol? Who knows!

Both sets are rumored to be an exclusive to the 2019 Shanghai Exhibition, with a September 2019 release date, making this a very early announcement. Prime is set at a price of 815 Malaysian Ringit or $196 USD, while the cassettes are listed at 302.10 Malaysian Ringit or $73 USD.

Are you excited for more cassettes? What are your thoughts on a Ghostbuster's Prime? Let us know what you think of these rumors below!

I'm really excited to see what happens with a Ghostbuster MP-10. I really hope something awesome comes out of this

I get the feeling that the cassettes will represent ghosts

Definitely got me curious. Hopefully it's easy to obtain, probably expensive, but hey, most of these MP-10 repaints are!

A Ghostbusters exclusive at a Chinese exhibition? That seems... odd.

The casettes are a separate listing, unrelated.

I was expecting the cassettes to come in a second 'Bee box set...wasn't the first one labeled as #1?

Graphy and Noise? Not Dile and Zaur? I guess we can expect both at some point, would rather it was a four pack. I just hope Graphy and Noise ended up a little more accurate to the originals than that face on the new Legout.

But honestly, I'd have preferred Squawkbox and Slamdance, they're much better cassette combiners than the dinos.

Not sure why we need Frenzy again, I wonder how they'll change him if at all? I suppose he'll be black and red instead of blue? If it's Encore then he'll likely be in cartoon colors, right?

I'm in full agreeance. I'm hoping to at least have a chance to get him if he ends up being interesting enough

Well that's just silly...why release the same cassettes from vol. 1 in diffetent colours, when you've got two other cassettes just waiting to go? Hasbro really boggles my mind sometimes...

I love the original Ghostbusters movie. It along with the animated transformers movie and strange magic, are like the only movies that I've seen more then 10 times each, so I'm really interested in see the deco on this prime. It sounds like this one could be popular too so they should consider producing a larger number for outside sales.

Brown jumpsuit themed Optimus, with an Ecto-1 themed trailer, and a proton pack themed backpack/ion blaster?

Yes please!
