Ghostsmashers.Net - Spooky’s GB Blog

Hey there! I’ve decided to put together a new blog to talk discuss my ongoing obsession that has been re-energized since Afterlife and with my kid starting to enjoy the movies too.

In it I’ll talk about various parts of the franchise, review things, and have any build logs for props. I would like to blog along with the Night Shift release as well next year. First on the docket is discussing the Hasbro ‘84 and my path in modding it.

Here is the first post!

First full “build” log is up! Going through the replacement of the elbows, valves, tubes, and other light touches with the decisions and process along the way.

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoy it. I hope my blathering becomes a good resource for someone someday.

I’ve been on a journey trying to dye a navy flight suit to GB2 charcoal grey. First I started with a Propper and that was a mess, then I switched to a Tru-Spec. I now have two blogs covering both of those with a full tutorial on how to dye the Tru-Spec. I‘ll eventually make a shorter post here with that tutorial for archival/reference purposes. But for now, check out http://ghostsmashers.net to read all about this frustrating and also fun time.

Thanks! I dug your post on the haslab

Glad you liked it! Thanks for reading.

Finally back to the pack. For the second round I’ve got a new Ion Arm Cap (bought here), a ALICE Frame and HASbrackets, new lenses and rings on the cyclotron and some other small touches.

Hasbro Build Log 2

I built the KUD Meter from Ghostbusters II with a working EMF detector inside. It was a fun build that didn’t take very long, and will certainly raise a few eyebrows. Full process at the blog!
