Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it is OFFICIALLY October 1st! Halloween is upon us!
What better way to celebrate the biggest day of the year for all of the Ghostbusters franchises and fans that to review 31 ghosts in 31 days?
Yes, the Mr. Ghostbuster blog is your place to be this Halloween season for all thing Ghostbusters!
I thought, perhaps, I would ease into this one a little bit. It is, afterall, going to be a VERY long month. Not only do I have a job to deal with on a daily basis, but everything else that comes along with being a grown up as well, so if at some point these reviews become slightly half assed, don't say I didn't warn you.
For day one of our long 31 day countdown, we will take a look at MAIL FRAUD!
Mail Fraud, one of the tougher figures to find from the Haunted Humans line by Kenner, is one disgruntled postal worker.
While he doesn't officially have a name, aside from his ghostly alter ego, works for an unnamed post office in an unnamed city.
We'll pretend his name is Pat, and he is a carrier for the Bronx Post Office? Cool?
Nah.
Anyways, Mr. Postal Worker here deals with fugly (yeah, I used it) housewives and beer drinking welfare men all day long. He is just plain miserable.
He used to wake up happy, and ready to go to work until he met Gertrude off of East 9th street, who tried to seduce him while wearing her hair rollers and night gown.
Perhaps he wouldn't have minded so much had it not been for the mole with three dark hairs sticking out right above her lip.
Day after day of lugging around people's bills and those stupid Pizza Coupons that you get ever Wednesday, he snapped and hung himself.
A little depressing, but one person can only take so much.
He came back to haunt all of his old stops, ready to make the hairs on Gertrude's mole jump off of her face.
Mail Fraud has come to unleash holy hell on every person along his old route.
The Mail Fraud figure was a great toy indeed. The Haunted Humans line was one of the best indeed, taking normal, everyday people in blue collar jobs and giving them the perfect mixture of poltergeist and take this job and shove it.
Mail Fraud transforms flawlessly from United States Postal worker to ghost by lifting his torso up.
His stomach suddenly becomes a mouth clad with razor sharp teeth, his neck tie becomes a nose and his shirt pockets become eyes that glare straight into the depths of your soul.
I do no at all doubt that Mail Fraud would gladly scare the daylights out of anybody who gets in his way.
Now, lets just hope he takes out those people who clog up my mailbox with pizza coupons and grocery ads.
