This week's toy release is my own custom design for the proton pack accessory for vintage Kenner Ghostbusters figures. Only a handful of the original packs survived from my childhood - some missing the plastic stream, some with broken 'arm grips', some with busted back pegs. I wanted to give my o...

I have to say: I'm digging some of the new Hasbro 'roleplay' Ghostbusters toys coming out for kids. In particular, I really like the Proton Blaster MOD. The blaster is a good size (slightly smaller than a 'full size' prop) and it has some decent sound effects and exchangeable parts that contribut...

The Kenner Ecto-1 roof-mounted gunner seat allowed kids to position their favorite Ghostbuster on the roof and blast ghosts on the go. The upcoming Ghostbusters Afterlife movie introduces a new side-mounted gunner chair which looks like it'll lend itself to some really fun action sequences.
Like many of you, I am thrilled to see new Ghostbusters toys hitting the shelves. I'm not much of a collector myself but I have the toys from my childhood and have picked up a few select items here and there (my son really wanted a Tombstone Tackle!)
However, many of the toy access...

The 3D printed Slime Blower Mark 2 is a set of upgrade modules designed to attach to a "full size" Neutrona Wand. My goal was to minimize the modifications needed to the base wand prop although you may need to be agile depending on what your base thrower is.
Recently, I have been upgrading a Ghost Trap with parts inspired by Ghostbusters: The Video Game. As the game progressed, you could upgrade the trap with prototype technology with a "Fast Trap" and...

This past winter, I began creating upgrades and modifications to my movie props inspired by Ghostbusters: The Video Game. I really like the game and I consider it a proper "Ghostbusters III" with the team still in their prime and voiced by the original actors.
In the coming...

I recently upgraded my RGB Neutrona Wand with a new assembly for the "left side". This includes a new "angled extrusion" and a new side knob (image on top). This assembly is more accurate to what we see in the cartoon and it aesthetically balances out the thrower when you have the extended " 2021-02-28 22:07:09 +0000 UTC View Post
The crazy thing about Proton Packs? They are never really finished. I recently created and installed a variation to my RGB proton pack bumper. It has more rounded features and details. It also has a more functional side clip for more securely holding the trap hose and pedal.
