Back in 2011 i built the Ghostbuggy from the 80s Filmation Ghostbusters show.
The toyline by Schaper back in the days was very small,
so i decided to add something to my collection of 80s retro toys.
Also there is an exhibition called GRAYSKULL CON in Germany this year again.
Last year i presented the MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE project at this event.
So sad LOU SCHEIMER, who was the head of FILMATION studios, passed away last year.
He influenced my childhood with his cartoons like Zorro, Lone Ranger, Bravestarr, He-Man, Blackstar
and the Filmation Ghostbusters.
So for this years con i decided to not only display the MOTU models and built some more of the Filmation cartoon lines.
About the Filmation Ghostbusters i found something that explains why they are actually the real Ghostbusters and our beloved THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS is actually fake.
"A few years later (around 1984), it was known that Dan Aykroyd was working on a script to make a film based (or inspired) by “Ghostbreakers” from 1940. Due to legal rights, this name had to be changed to “Ghostbusters”, and at this point the executives at filmation thought that it might be a good idea to turn the old TV series in cartoons, but Columbia (that was producing the film that later became so famous) tried to stop it. They filed a lawsuit against Filmation to avoid the usage of the Ghostbusters name in the cartoons. The court ruled in Filmations favour and for a payoff, they accepted to include slightly change the name to “Filmation’s Ghostbusters”, gave permission to the film to use the name as planned, but for licensing, Columbia was forced to use the name “The Real Ghostbusters” in all their licensed products. Maybe because of the term “real”, many children on my age thought at the time, that the Filmation Ghostbusters were a “copy” of the ones we had seen on the cinema, although it was actually the opposite."

My stash of expired film. Some of these films expired 5 years ago, some a decade ago, and the oldest expired in March 1970.
The Kodak VR film reminds me of my first experiences with photography as this was the film of choice back then.
The High Contrast Copy film (which has expiry 3/70) is now in my Canon A-1, with ASA set right down to 6 - the last roll of this that I used was set to ASA64 and it was horribly under-exposed. Fingers crossed this time!
I shot Ashley in my studio space with my Mamiya 645 then after rewinding the film, I did a walk about in my garden for the second exposure. I was quite surprised and pleased at how closely the frames aligned between the two exposures, it's not usualy so accurate!
I developed the HP5 (shot at ISO1 1600) with Ilfosol3 and scanned with my Coolscan 9000.
everywhere throughout the empty 8 floors was empty mid century chairs and couches scattered seemingly at random.
