TFs-Ghostbusters crossover toy Ectotron

[Raider]

May not be a popular thought but I hope it has combiner ports and is part of a new combiner with a delorean, kitt, a-team van and Mavericks f-14! I want some '80s combiner nostalgia goodness

This thing is awesome! They got it all so right! I only collect Masterpiece TF but I want this!

Not that unpopular...

Ecto-1 will have Kit, the Delorian, the Batmobile and the A-Team van for limbs. Herbie will become the chest

So after all the back and forth discussion you guys had...

... I think his name is actually Ectotron.

Maybe Hasbro forgot how G1 packaging worked?



Names on his chest, just like the others.

That's the thing that confused me. I looked at the packaging of this toy and then looked at G1 packaging. On the front where their primary function was usually written was 'Electron' and where their name was usually written was 'Ecto-1'. Yet on the tech-spec on the back where the name was usually written was 'Electron'.

So he must transform from 'Ecto-1 the vehicle' to 'Electron the robot'

And after being convinced by the fine people here that his name should be Ecto-1... people work out that it could actually be Ectotron. sigh...

Well, it should be. Not our fault we got confused if:

I had a thought Ectotron was a subgroup & imagined other movie cars as members, until I saw the comic image.
