Celebrity Machines Ghostbusters 2 ECTO 1 Plate
✓ Product data checked October 23, 2026
Celebrity Machines, a small Indianapolis maker of movie prop replicas, reproduces here the white Statue of Liberty ECTO 1 plate seen on the Ectomobile at the start of Ghostbusters 2. It is embossed aluminum with pre-drilled holes, shipped shrink-wrapped in a box, and meant for display in a garage, office or game room rather than on a road vehicle. For a Ghostbusters fan, it is the kind of deep-cut detail that starts a conversation, and the brand notes the plate was later switched to ECTO-1A in the film. Rated 4.8 across more than 200 reviews at around $17.
