Pretty solid Ghostbusters collector’s set!
I must say, if you’ve got the chance, you should pick up a copy of the ultimate collectors edition release of Ghostbusters. I know, I know, another physical release with some small new stuff added in just for Sony to pick off more money from these Ghostbusters fans, right? Well, in my opinion, wrong!! On so many levels. While the 2019 release brought some never before seen additions, this release is all of that (although it appears the Real Ghostbusters pilot restoration is gone) and more. I think the real gem of this release is the “preview cut” of the film, said to be Editor Sheldon Kahn’s first overall cut of the film he saved for reference and only recently unearthed. It is an absolute treasure trove of alternate takes as well as lots of bits that hit the cutting room floor, some of which we’ve seen before as deleted scenes on the original dvd release, and others long lost in the shuffle of editing. I think this cut, even without the visual effects and correct foley/score added, is better overall than the recently dug up ‘dailies’ that were packaged with this release. Those, while cool, didn’t do as much for me as this newly unearthed preview cut did. If you can still find it, I suggest you pick it up before it becomes another sought-after copy like the 2019 release did. Sadly, it seems that’s already happening with resellers, which is a shame since it literally just came out! If you do find it, be sure to carefully check the discs packed with it as a lot of folks are finding duplicates of one version while missing the other. Thankfully, mine was all correct. Others have also complained that the light-up feature doesn’t work upon delivery. I thought mine was broken, too, since it didn’t light up, but a finger over the sensor allows mine to shine. No idea I’d that is supposed to be how it works, but at least it comes on.

Awesome collection!
This collection is absolutely awesome! I haven’t watched all the special features yet. But the book is great, it has the script from the first one, little notes about why they decided to either delete scenes or not shoot them in the first place. It comes with digital codes for all 4 movies, that are in 4K UHD, you also get the extended cut of the all female version. The disc version of 1, 2, and Afterlife are both 4K and Blu-ray. The first 2 are still outstanding. Afterlife is a great story, with many call backs to the originals that will give ya that nostalgic feeling. And Afterlife pays great homage to the late great Harold Ramis.

Greatest box set ever
This is the greatest box set ever. It has everything a Ghostbusters fan could ask for never before seen footage and loads of extras . Plus a one of a kind display case to store it all in. Only wish the case was plastic instead of cardboard. Also why does best buy wait till the last minute to ship? I have a YouTube channel and would like to do reviews and unboxing videos but by the time I get them there's already 100 other videos of people that got their copy from best buy earlier. Maybe they'll get it right with my spiderman pre orders. Great but though. Have a good one . YouTube earlthemovieguy

Best of the best!
BEST OF THE BEST! 100% must-own for any Ghostbusters collector. Absolutely love the intricate details of the ghost trap. The special features are endless. Plus the limited edition making of book is priceless. Even the motion sensor of the "green ghost being trapped" in the box is a perfect addition.
