That's right thanks to a notification received from our own staff we've learned that Big Bad Toy Store has announced a new pre order for the Transformers/Ghostbusters crossover figure Ectotron! Be aware BBTS may just be the first to announce this pre order but this is definitely one you want to jump on if you missed out the first time. Ectotron sold out at most retailers especially as more issues of his debut comic title Transformers/Ghostbusters: Ghosts of Cybertron were released increasing his popularity. At this point Ectotron with his hit comic book and retro call back that tugs on so many fans' heartstrings is one of the top Transformers releases in an already remarkable year. He's currently listed at $41.99 and is expected December 2019.
Here's the rundown we received from BBTS:
"ECTOTRON
Transformers robots have always been -- More the Meets the Eye. Now, through the Transformers Collaborative, fans can experience these larger than life characters as they team-up, mash-up, and meet up with other characters, teams, and people who share this same special quality. It is a world of constant change, where things are not what they seem. It is the world of the Transformers…and the Ghostbusters…a world of heroic Autobots and evil Decepticons…and ghosts!"

Anyone taking their little 'bots out for some goodies? Scaring up some tricks tonight? Then just in time, we have a real treat for you, the newest galleries from Seibertron himself, of the fifth Ghostbuster, Ectronymous Diamatron, aka Ectotron! And we can't forget about the ghost with the most, Slimer! Feast your eyes on the teaser pictures below, then click on any of them to be taken to the full galleries of these two figures.

And while you're ghouling drooling over these pictures, why not pick up Ectotron from our sponsors at Big Bad Toy Store? They have a preorder for this popular figure up, and he's due to ship in December, just in time for the holidays which shall not be mentioned until after tonight.

Transformers X Ghostbusters Ectotron (135 images) - Voyager Class

Transformers X Ghostbusters Slimer (27 images) - Figurine

We at Seibertron wish you a scary good Hallowe'en! Stay safe out there if you're out tonight, and check back with Seibertron for upcoming galleries of a psychiatrist/G-d, the most effective Decepticon Leader ever, and another round of RIRFIB!

they 110% nailed the Ghostbuster crossover stuff. The entire set of toys and comics are fantastic. Well worth it!

Love the pic.

Has there ever been a set of 3.75" Ghostbusters action figures, something along the lines of Marvel Universe, Star Wars or GI Joe?

Honestly no idea if there ever was a set, but this lego set really does a good job of duplicating it. It's a 4 pack available at walmart and such too, so it's readily available to find

This is a sexy beast. Might be the best set of tooling for an Optimus Prime figure too, it is fantastic, and the accessories and paint work is fantastic!

If ever I bought another of that mould, it would be this one. The Ghost Busters colour scheme works like a damned dream!

And is that a Pickle Brainstorm drawn in the background. He IS mad scientist enough I reckon!

It does! The only bummer is he didn't come with an axe like the comic, but I am about to remedy that this week!

And yep, Pickle Brainstorm! from Robots with coffee on twitter!

Wondering if a SS Beetle Bee and beastwars manterror might make a mash up into a real GB highway haunter.

4 of my 6 Ghostbusters dudes arrived today, which enabled me to finally pair up some movie accurate ghostbusters figures with the ecto-bots! They look quite good together

I love that you include Crosswise in the group. That is perfect.

I hate myself that it took me a minute to figure out why Crosswise was there. :lol:

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't know anything about Crosswise 18 months ago. ScottyP gave me the idea for him, and he's been a perfect fit

New packaging photo, looks pretty bad buy that could just be because ectotrons robot mode is a bit pants. Hasbros packaging has been pretty good so dunno why this looks off
