I voted for the firehouse as it’s a design that’s near and dear to my heart. [If certain people are lurking here, you know why ]

The inner box *might* have the iconic RGB group pose and Ecto-1 chase shot seen in the other design. We don’t know. So it’s possible that we could “have it both ways” – sort of speak.

And I’m sure that that’s just a quick mock-up of the firehouse to get the concept across. I’m sure that if approved, the firehouse will be drawn to the RGB model used in the series.

The firehouse got my vote… it looks great!!!

Firehouse Design. I’m hoping the art will follow the cartoon better than both concepts so far. The Black concept has art completely based for movie. The Firehouse is better only because not a great deal has changed between the movies and cartoons on the outside of the firehouse.

I voted for the firehouse, but they could use art drawn by chimps and I’d still buy the set without hesitation

I chose the one which shows the characters. C’mon! You gotta have the character on the cover!

Anyway, I just hope that they use artwork from the original artists and don’t put new artwork on it like the Thundercats dvd boxes which didn’t look very good at all.

RE: Steven

They might’ve used a photo of the real Firehouse just to get the concept across.

Firehouse all the way, vote Firehouse people!

Re: Stephen

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing! That would be prrrty cool, except it’ll prolly be inside the DVD(s) themselves; the cover art, IMO, shouldn’t be an exact replica of a scene from the film/TV-show…

Why are they using a photo of the real firehouse–it doesn’t appear to have the sign up, nor the movie doors even! It would make more sense to use the firehouse as rendered in the cartoon.

Personally, I’d like to see the graphic from toward the end of the series opening, with the four Ghostbusters battling the mob of ghosts and Mr. Stay-Puft.

Wow! I had been in a rush earlier and not realized that there would be animated windows and Ecto-1 in the Firehouse design… now it’s double firehouse! I love it even more now.

Voted for the firehouse.

It’s such a great concept! I really hope that it looks like the firehouse from the cartoon… complete with a helipad for the Ecto-2.

Now I know how Indy must of felt when trying to decide which cup was the Holy Grail…

I voted for the Firehouse design, the “animated” Ecto-1 and scenes inside the windows did it for me.

Wow. I had no idea the firehouse design would be so popular. It’s a neat idea, but it’s already been done (i.e.: Full House). I guess I’m more of a darker soul, so I voted for the darker design…but whatever. The lenticular design would make it up to me. Plus the basic fact that RGB is FINALLY coming to DVD!!!! I don’t know if I’ll be able to afford ‘em, but…at least I can buy them when/if I finally am able to…

Firehouse here. The little blurb about the Ecto-1 coming out of the doors got me.

Both look good, but I voted “Firehouse”. Man, that set is going to rock!

Firehouse! I liked it better than the other one. The slime effect sounds awesome.. Can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Firehouse for me too.

The FIREHOUSE! here’s why:

The “slime” box features slime oozing down the side of the case, while the “firehouse” case includes animated scenes in the windows, and the ECTO-1 driving out the front doors.

I mean come on, stuff in the windows and ECTO-1!!!!!!! vote firehouse!!!!

Firehouse. That was a no brainer. I can’t wait to buy these and watch the shit out of them.

Argh that was so hard, I ultimately went with the art over the firehouse, but I’d be more than happy with both. The lenticular slime is a phenomenal touch. Can’t wait, I’m so glad they are doing this finally!

I voted for the firehouse version, but I think it’d be great if they could somehow combine the two.

By: Justis

The firehouse would be MONEY.

Imagine how cool it’d be with little lenticular goings-on in the windows…oh man, it’d be fabulous.

VOTE HOUSE, PEOPLES!

Firehouse-Design!

Hope they change the firehouse-photo to an illustrated version as seen in the series… That would make more sense..

And I hope they straighten the RGB-title!

The different styles of the illustrations on Box 1 do not fit together and are overused…

Bare in mind Wesley, the final Firehouse one will likely be a lot nicer once they gave it the ‘proper’ go.

I voted for the Firehouse design.

By: Wesley

I voted for the black artwork. To me it has a much sleeker design. The firehouse is more of an ugly photoshop patchwork.

By: Doodle Vandal Chris

Doodle Vandal Chris — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 21:09:29 +0000

That was easy! I picked the firehouse – a clearly superior bit of artwork! I can’t wait! This is all so exciting!
