I haven’t seen that before and I don’t think it is all that bad. Would I own one? No. Would I think it to be funny and a good gift for my son? Yes. It isn’t a practical backpack and I have no idea why the wand needs to be a separate detachable pack. It is gimickee for sure.

And maybe you guys could change your tone slightly for a guy who is making his first post. He is new and trying.

So let me be the first to welcome you on here Werstum

Someone is selling them on ebay, but I’m not sure if it’s a pre-order, or if they have them in hand.

Got mine a while ago.

It’s pretty fun. A little smaller than a normal backpack, but still works.

I’ve had a lot of people ask me where I got it.

/still can’t figure out a use for the gun part though.

I picked one up, it’s great for my drawing stuff, pencils in the gun and the such. Well, I like it, how many people when they bought theirs turned their wands upside down to be more “accurate?”

I actually tucked my wand into the bag. The cord was driving me a bit nuts.

I got one online (because on [the other side](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/publications/comics/ghostbusters-the-other-side) of the earth and there was no other way to get one), but I can justify it because I needed a new backpack due to unbelievable amount of books I needed last semester for uni, and my Indy Jones satchel wasn’t cutting it… and I am a ginormous nerd 😛

First thing I did 😉

One last thing, I get A LOT of people asking me about the backpack usually with the line, “Wow I love your pack” to which I immediately reply, “Thanks, but it’s not as good as my real one.” .. so much fun watching their jaws hit the ground 😃
