That [belt gizmo](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform/calculator-circuit-board) is awesome too!

Ok so San Diego Comic Con has come and gone and I figured I could show off the last piece of the RGB build. I had a custom suit put together by Gibson & Barnes. I wanted a brown and green suit like Venkman but I decided to do this last minute and was limited by what suits G&B had in stock and ready to modify.

The wife and myself at the Lego booth. They grabbed us and practically forced us to take pics with the Stay Puft model:

And another shot just because:

I apparently missed this guy back in 2002 and was confused for him all day. I really think my suit is plenty different but it would appear that RGB isn’t quickly recognized:

this is absolutely stunning, i’m definitely considering working on a hybrid style pack myself… though i do prefer a bit more of the cartoon style thrower…

fantastic work 😃

This is a really is a cool build. As a kid I LOVED the RGB series. Ive recently shared it with my girls. I’m in the planning stages of my first pack, and this has made me really think hard about doing a RGB kit instead of a movie kit.

Hello everyone! I realized that I had talked about upgrades and such after SDCC and never posted any updates.

So after SDCC I installed a full gbfans light and sound kit in the pack. Spongeface helped me out by switching out the blue LEDs on the [power cell](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/power-cell) board to white so that my powercell would show as yellow. I also installed the ever popular e-cig gimmick. I apologize as these videos are really rough. They were test footage sent between myself, Darthdono74, and a few other friends. I still haven’t done a full functions video yet of the pack.

Anyway…here are some videos. I hope you enjoy them.

This first one shows the operational battery gauge:

This one is the [belt gizmo](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform/calculator-circuit-board) lights. I used an R2Devo pack light kit:

Here are the trap lights. (This video is really bad)

This is the one most people will want to see I’m sure. Here is the vent sequence with the e-cig gimmick:

I’m sure there is more to show as well as me needing to do a proper functions video. I am also hoping to get some custom sounds for the pack. I began ripping pack sounds from RGB episodes to make a custom sound library but I have t finished it yet.

Simply stunning. Nice RGB pack Joe.The gizmo, the trap, the venting.. wow. Thats the stuff dreams are made of. I have a huge love for RGB equipment and I dont think it gets much better than this.

Another note, do you still do the 3/4 shells?

I saw someone was looking for RGB builds and I now see that all the pics in this thread are gone. Thanks photobucket!

Anyway, here are a few pics of the final build of my hybrid pack.
