Does anyone know if they've made a replica of the ECTO-1 from GB2?
the one with the caution tape & red bumper.

Only a JL version, home slice……matchbox-sized.

Well, that, and the AMT model kit.

They're all Ecto-1a's, with minor differences here and there (like orange rims on the Target exclusive - mostly so collectors could tell them apart) - JL only had the license to produce the Ecto-1a, and those runs are done (you can still find places to buy them, but it's getting harder and harder.)

When they released the last car, it was labeled “Ghostbusters” but still featured their old ecto-1a model (the police car was also a recycled design, not an 1983 style NY cop car.)
