Also Matty not having enough support for Ecto 1 is likely the exact reason Hasbro isn't going to do one that big.

For a rando on the internet who has a cool toy idea and needs crowdfunding to make it? Not at all! For a Fortune 500 company who SHOULD have their finger on the pulse of what their fans want? It totally is. Plus Mattel took an easy slam dunk like the Ghostbusters license and tripped over their own shoelaces as soon as the hit the court, then shat themselves as they lay on the ground.
