The current image feels more like the poster for "Ghostbuster's, The Musical" then one for a actual movie. here are some replacements i found from https://www.pinterest.com.au/turboattack/ghostbusters/. all 3 images have all 4 ghostbusters (the problem with the original image replacement) 1.1:

I kind of prefer the current honestly.

I like 1.1 as well.

It builds character.

The current looks fine (despite the DVD watermark), but we could also go with the original poster, even though it doesn’t include Zeddemore.

Editing on the current looks rather crude, but I prefer it over the suggestions in OP; the modern r/MoviePosterPorn graphic design look really doesn't feel fitting for a film from 1984. [up] is pretty good, even if Winston's absence is pretty glaring.

I think those are all fanmade posters. They certainly look like it anyway. Either way, keep current.

I always liked the VHS cover, as that was the one I grew up with.

Can anyone find a proper image of that?

Edit: Nevermind, I should have payed more attention, apparently thats the current one. So I voting to keeping it as is.

Edit #2: Thinking about it, if 1.1 is official, I like that.

All of the ones in OP are fan art from Alternative Movie Posters . com so [tdown] as they aren't official.

However there was a really nice official Steelbook Blu Ray cover which is official:

It shows the first encounter with the Library ghost and is more painterly:

I still prefer the current due to a) showing all four and b) having their face to the camera.

OK, since OP suggestions aren't allowed under policy, I'm gonna say revert.

[up] If you get rid of the white space I would vote for that one.
