I'm glad they made them translucent. The solid ones from before looked odd.
I also noticed they have the wand upside down on both of the guy's packs. It's also like that in the packaging shots for the TRU two packs.

Where's Louis in the boxset?

I believe he's inside the terror dog. I recall hearing something about how the terror dog is almost like an outfit that clips to Louis. Pretty freakin neat idea if you ask me.

You're right. If you look close, you can see Louis' hair.

Those are all really sweet… here's hoping those are a second wave, and won't be released at the same time. I need time to spread out these purchases!

Those are the TRU-exclusive second wave. They ship out in September.
Hopefully we can get at least one more wave to get the Scoleri brothers, Slime-thrower Ray and Winston, Janine, Peck and finally Vigo.
EDIT: Might I add that this must be the biggest merchandise push for the minimate line yet. The only other line that rivals this is the minimate's biggest series, the Marvel minimates.
So far we have 32 individual minimates before a single one has hit retail!

I think these might be compatible with Playmobil, judging from the size of ‘em, so, with any luck, you might be able to customize Playmobil’s “Emergency Vehicle” into an ECTO-1.

Unfortunately, Playmobil toys are taller than minimates by about an inch.
So the car would be too big…which sucks because that's perfect for an Ecto-1 custom!

So far we have 32 individual minimates before a single one has hit retail!There are actually 36:
3 4-packs:
Series 1
Series 2
Amazon.com Slimer Edition
12 2-packs
TRU Wave 1: 5 2-packs
TRU Wave 2: 5 2-packs
SDCC 2-pack
Previews Exclusive 2-pack
I miraculously have them all on order, which is a relief. No hunting for me.
I've lucked out with exclusives this year. I'm not attending SDCC (and probably never will) but I've managed to get all of the exclusives I want preordered with the exception of the Mattel Slimed Egon and that just hasn't been made available to order yet.
I have a few Minimates already. I counted them all today. I have all the ones from the Dollars trilogy, all the “Back to the Future” ones and the “Silence of the Lambs” pack and altogether they still come up 2 short of the “Ghostbusters” ones alone.
So yeah, it's quite a lot.
