We’ve already seen pictures of the new Ghostbusters team, and with the movie set arrive on July 15th, and Toy Fair 2016 just around the corner, teasing the toys has become a big deal.
Director paul Feig took to Twitter yesterday to share the first shot of the prototype toys for the Ghostbusters team.

In a time when fans are wondering why we don’t have more female action figures on the shelves, this seems to be a move in the right direction, and from what I can see in the image, the detail is fantastic. I love how they’ve posed the Melissa McCarthy figure to put life into the toys.
But wait! There’s more!
Mattel, Funko, Diamond Select & others making over 20 figures in all sizes & styles. Tons of other stuff coming too. https://t.co/FnHpG43z62

Tons of other stuff? LEGO just released the original Ghostbusters firehouse set, but I expect to see more from that toy manufacturer in the second quarter.

I obviously knew it was a full female cast, but I didn’t actually expect them to straight up gerderbend character by character, I mean that’s what I’m getting just appearance wise anyway.
