Thank you for existing. It's definitely got some Ghostbusters II sensibility to it with the eyes and pulsating body. It's good to know you can also translate the toys into your style.

HAHAH! Wait 'til you see the next one. It's not Soar Throat either...
I'm considering moving forward with more ghosts in this style, maybe have a TSG version and a "real" version... thoughts?

Sweet! And hey, somehow this reminded me that the IDW comics hits stores this week, thanks on both counts, heh.
Yes, I'd say go for it. More than handful of entities have various forms and some have official names like Transmogrified Forms that I'd like to see you take a crack at rather than settle on one (like the Library Ghost/Dr. Eleanor Twitty but realistically, you know your work schedule and attention span so there's that, too). And given the context of writing Tobin's Spirit Guide, Tobin probably pissed off and woken one too many entities, giving him a visual of both forms.

I'm thinking some of those ghosts from the films and cartoons lend themselves to this style better, as working them into the Spirit Guide feels a little like shoe-horning. Ghosts particularly, but I'm keen to play with some entities too...

Good point. I think that trio from "Ghosts R Us" would be perfect for this style and then other entities like the Undying One and Tenebraug are prime for the Spirit Guide.

It was actually Tenebraug that made me want to go ahead and do them this way...!

LOL nice. Never had this one actually...
Will you do H2 Ghost or the Bug-Eye? They were my favorites!

Eventually, but not until after the countdown. Dan and I are alternating ghosts, so he'll do one lot and I'll do another. I'd say it's more than likely that we'll end up covering both at some point in the near future.

I'm hearing that dude from Mortal Kombat screaming it for some reason...

Well, he did scream it in Mortal Kombat

I hated this toy for being one of the dumbest looking things I'd ever seen or been given. Practically had to stomp on it with a foot to fire those finger puppet rejects.
And now here it is looking like one of the most badass, scariest, piss-my-pants critters I've seen.
Well done. You even have it resemble the source reference enough to be identifiable ... Damn good.

Mine always worked really well... maybe it had something to do with the rubber or plastic... You could punch down on mine and it'd pop pretty well actually. Thanks for the kind words though man!
