Funko is doing amazing things in the toy department, especially when it comes to honoring strong female characters in creative ways. The vinyl figurine company is set to release a Golden Girls line of its pop figurines. The next big offering? Ghostbusters

The all-female reboot is getting the full Funko Pop! treatment, along with villain Rowan’s ghost and another ethereal spirit whose origins remain a mystery: Gertrude Eldridge. Even Kevin the receptionist is along for the ride.

These Funko Pop! figurines are set to hit shelves in June, while the Ghostbusters movie has a release date of July 15. That means you can actually bring your Ghostbusters toys to the premiere and be the coolest fan in the theater.

Funko’s offerings are just the latest in what promises to be a robust and varied line of Ghostbusters toys expected to hit shelves over the summer. Be on the lookout for a full Lego set in addition to Mattel action figures that look like they could totally do some damage. Director Paul Feig has hinted that over 20 toys will be available from the likes of Funko, Lego, Mattel, and more. So, uh, best get to saving.
