The Story

Mattel's 2010 Retro-Action line was a love letter to the Mego 8-inch cloth-costumed doll format of the 1970s, fused with the enduring appeal of The Real Ghostbusters animated series. The Peter Venkman figure carries an "Adult Collector" designation — this was never a children's toy shelf release — and is specifically tied to Episode 11, "Citizen Ghost," giving it a narrative specificity that sets it apart from generic Ghostbusters merchandise. For Mego enthusiasts and Real Ghostbusters fans alike, completing the core quartet of Peter, Egon, Ray, and Winston remains one of the most satisfying collector goals in this niche.

This example is mint on card. The bold purple blister card is flat and crisp with no creasing, warping, or punched hang-tab; the hot-pink "Retro-Action / The Real Ghostbusters" logo block is vivid. The clear blister is fully sealed and uncracked, displaying the figure cleanly. The cloth jumpsuit is unworn, the proton pack and wand accessory are present and correctly positioned, and the "TRY ME – I TALK!" starburst is intact. Circular portrait medallions of all five line members — Peter Venkman, Egon Spengler, Ray Stantz, Winston Zeddemore, and Mr. Stay Puft — remain bright on the front. The purple card back features full-colour animated artwork of the team alongside Slimer, with Mattycollector.com and Sony Pictures Television copyright notices confirming authenticity (item no. R6272).

The Stuff You’re Probably Wondering Before You Smash ‘Buy Now’

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How Fast Do We Ship?

Most in-stock orders placed before 12 PM CST ship the same day. We’re label-printing, box-packing machines — without skimping on quality. Your tracking number will probably show up before you’ve even closed the tab.

How Do We Pack Orders?

Every item gets collector-grade treatment: bubble wrap, proper padding, and zero envelope crimes. We pack like your grail’s riding shotgun with us — damage rate is under 1%.

Are You Actually Collectors Too?

Yep. We’ve been hunting plastic treasures since the ‘90s. We speak fluent collector (MOC, BAF, grail hunting), we’ve camped outside stores for midnight releases, and we run this place like the shop we always wished existed. Professional enablers at your service. 😎

What's Your Return Policy?

30 days to decide if it’s true love. Not happy? Full refund to your original payment method. Damaged? We replace or refund fast. Just keep items in the condition you got them, and we’ll make it right — because the only drama in collecting should be choosing a display pose. One exception: trading card game product is final sale, since a sealed box can’t be verified once it leaves our hands.

Pre-Orders: How They Work

Calling dibs costs you $0 today — we only charge your card when it ships. No awkward “I paid months ago” limbo. Mixing in-stock + pre-orders? In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders). Dates can shift — we’ll keep you posted faster than Spider-Man slings webs. And if we ever can’t deliver (rare), you’re not charged a dime.

Still Stumped? Let’s Talk.

We’re real collectors who actually answer — no bots, no scripts, no hold music. Shoot us a message and we’ll get back faster than you can refresh your tracking number.
