Remember the ECTO-1 or that toilet monster ghost? Well, you can buy them again.

During the 1980s, The Real Ghostbusters toy line from Kenner took ridiculous ghosts and monsters from the animated series and made them into memorable toys. Now, Hasbro is revamping some of these toys for a whole new era--and isn't stopping with just the ghosts.

The Ghostbusters Kenner Classics line brings the iconic ECTO-1 and some of the ghosts from the series to a new generation of kids--or adults who want to relive their youth. Three new toys were announced, and you can check them all out below.

First, there's the classic ECTO-1, which will cost $50. Based on the spectre-hunting vehicle from the animated series, the car's tailgate opens, there's a swivel blaster seat on the roof, and a ghost claw, so you can bust those pesky ghosts--which I heard makes you feel good. Of course, it also comes with a little ghost figure to bust.

Also coming this April are some ghost toys, which will run you $15 a piece. The first two weird ghosts you can get your hands on are Bug-Eye, a ghost whose giant eye pops out, and the memorable Fearsome Flush--the toilet monster. Both of these are sold separately.

These toys will be exclusively at Walmart stores and will arrive in April. Pre-orders will not begin until March 15 at 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT, but when that time comes, you'll be able to pre-order these Ghostbusters toys. You can check out the other toys in the line there as well, including the Ghostbusters as well. Hopefully, Hasbro will keep rolling these out so I can finally get my hands back on the Tombstone Tackle ghost I played with way too much as a kid.

Hasbro continues to pump out some excellent Ghostbusters collectibles. For more, check out the recently released Plasma Series ECTO-1 toy and the highly-detailed Plasma Series Spengler’s Neutrona Wand.
