#38: Hot Wheels Ghostbusters Ecto-1

I finally found it! After fruitlessly looking for the Ecto-1 the past few months, I was beginning to think I would never find one. Then one day I was at the grocery store, and there was a stand-alone cardboard display of Hot Wheels where the Easter candy had been. Figuring it was worth a shot, I searched through the entire display and found the only Ecto-1 contained within. The display was pretty full, so I wonder if that was the only one included. I've heard the Ecto-1 was shortpacked, and if it's only one per shipment, that's insane. I'm not sure if this is significant in any way, but the packaging seemed to be the international version, with the warning printed in three different languages on the card. Either way, it's the toy inside that's of interest to me, so I'm glad I finally got my hands on one, because it's a cool one. The Ecto-1 looks pretty good in scaled down form, although the ladder on the side is just solid black plastic. Some painted detail on the black plastic on the top would have been nice, but for a buck I'm not complaining too much. There is some equipment inside, but it's hard to make it out through the small windows. If you're on the hunt for one of these, then good luck!
