I am a college student on a budget of about spare 100(top dollar) bucks a month. However after deciding on a gb 2 costume being my next piece, being a avid cosplayer. I have started to do a checklist not only so I know how much I need so I know how much I need to save up or purchase a piece at a time. I also am doing this list to see if I am missing anything.Please check this list and let me know if I am missing anything, or if you know places/costs of items I have listed. I also have approximations listed for some parts/pieces fill me in if you know current/better prices. I have no problem making this a GB1 pack and just running a just a GB 2 [flight suit](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform) to simply things if it means less money and easier $40 Alice LC2 Frame GBfans shop $50 Pack: Aluminum [Motherboard](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/motherboard) GBFans shop $300 Pack: Particle Accelerator Fiberglass Hero Shel GB Fans $165- ThrowingChicken gun kit $80 48” x 48” x .125” HIPS polystyrene sheets X2 $5 1” x 10” PVC Pipe $5 1” x 10” PVC Pipe (thin walled) $5 2” x 10” PVC Pipe $10 [1/4" split wire loom](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/14-split-wire-loom) (2’) $10 3/4" [splitless loom](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/34-splitless-wire-loom) (6’) $16 [Crank knob](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/crank-knob) GBFans shop $15 LC-2 Quick Release Strap $15 LC-2 Kidney Padding $15"L" bracket mounting kit $15 Booster Ladder Frame $20Clippard Brass set $10Ribbon cable kit $20 5/32" SMC elbows set of 3 $15 GB2 3 piece resistor set $15 Complete Hose set $20 5/32" SMC straight fitting set $60 Proton Gun grip $250 Assorted Electronics(Sound Boards/lights etc) $300 Assorted Aluminum knobs/pieces that go on the pack- I think here I might be able to save some cash if I go with resin pieces $100 Flight suit+Dying by Lunchbox Grand Total $1300. So I figure at $100 bucks a month I can have this costume completed in just over a year maybe 2 years depending on if I am able to save $100 each month or only 50 some. This does not including fancy pieces like the lifeguard radio or trap etc. I am also assuming that there will be another 200-400 with shipping and stuff I missed. However I am assuming most of this stuff off the gb forums shop or members here please let me know if I need to find pieces for the pack elsewhere! However any advice on saving $$$ here is very appreciated. Please feel free to give a new buster any and all advice, I am not easily offended ---

Ramen. Not even the TOP Ramen. Cheaper food costs will put more money into your pack fund. Likewise, cutting out a few drinks on the weekend will save some dough. Pick up a part time job, often times the schools need cafeteria or janitorial help. Buy bottled water in bulk (I.e. a 24 pack for $3.50) instead of pop or beer. ---

Looks like you have a decent handle on what it’s going to cost. You can save some money getting resin parts instead of real but that’s up to you. You can also save on shipping by ordering a bunch of parts at once instead of peicemealing it but that’s not always possible and you have to jump of things if/when you see them. ---

Small Update to this now WIP Things I have recently acquired some on the list some not $20 Patches with personalized name patch $420 Matty Trap from Throwing Chicken $63 Matty [PKE meter](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-pke-meter) black friday sale $67 Belt Fobs x4 $20 Black [Pistol Belt](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/uniform-pistol-belt) $12 Cyltron Lights x4 $5 [Blue Power Cell Lens](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/power-cell-lens) $10 GB 2 [Ribbon Cable](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/ribbon-cable) $75 Crix Pack Light+Sound Kit- Hose Connector- (free with my order of Crix Kit) $53 Wiz [Bumper](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bumper) $15 “L” bracket mounting kit from Ejgunth87 Things I have left to get $180-200 Matty Wand (I figure $$180- 200 after shipping and cali sales tax) $40 True Spec [Flight suit](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform) Navy blue $40 Alice LC2 Frame GBfans shop $50 Pack: Aluminum [Motherboard](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/motherboard) GBFans shop $300 [Pack: Particle Accelerator Fiberglass Hero Shell](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/fiberglass-hero-shell) $80 48” x 48” x .125” HIPS polystyrene sheets X2 $5 1” x 10” PVC Pipe $5 1” x 10” PVC Pipe (thin walled) $5 2” x 10” PVC Pipe $10 [1/4" split wire loom](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/14-split-wire-loom) (2’) $10 3/4" [splitless loom](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/34-splitless-wire-loom) (6’) $16 [Crank knob](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/crank-knob) GBFans shop $15 LC-2 Quick Release Strap $15 LC-2 Kidney Padding $15 Booster Ladder Frame $20Clippard Brass set $20 5/32" SMC elbows set of 3 $15 GB2 3 piece resistor set $15 Complete Hose set $20 5/32" SMC straight fitting set $300 Assorted Aluminum pieces for the pack(such as [Injectors](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/injectors),HGA etc) Also I heard some good news since my birthday falls in late jan my folks agreed to put foward $500 towards a shell, motherboard alice frame and whatever else I want! So those are a few big pieces that I can take off my list. So by my count I have about $775 left in parts to purchase, with a budget of $250ish enough to get me my matty wand when they go on sale in a little more than 2 weeks(Dec 18th). Had I not bought TC’s matty trap my costume would of been nearly done after xmas. Oh well as the next con out here in cali is wondercon(March) I am hopping I can have it done before than if not than Comic Con or so! ---

Things I have recently ordered for my pack that I am waiting to arrive some thanks to the good advice of Wharin(Thanks again) Matty Nuetrino Wand(Pre ordered from AJ) $160, As they were going for $130 this is not bad as I would probably pay 15-20 in CA sales Tax, while AJ will pay almost none. So for the money it would cost me in tax I can let him order it now instead of me risking being unable to buy one on monday when it opens to the general public Sound Kit,hose connector, [vinyl label](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/pack-vinyl-labels) set all from Crix $110 LC-2 Frame and LC-1 straps $75- Bought a complete LC-1 from AJ(Gbfans shop) and then ordered a LC-2 Frame solo for $5 off ebay+ $15 shipping on each GB fans Shop -$55 3X 4MM Elbow fitting [Ribbon Cable Aluminum Hold Down](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/ribbon-cable-hold-down) Uniform Pistol Khaki Belt Trap Holster from momeraths24(gb fans) including [V-Hook](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/v-hook) and hardware to make it compatible with a Matty Trap $88 GB Fans shop [Pack: GB2 Metal Ion Arm End Cap](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/gb2-metal-ion-arm-end-cap) $35 Amazon Tru Spec Navy blue XL Long $40 Tru Spec Khaki XL Long $52 Things I still need to acquired $50 Pack: Aluminum [Motherboard](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/motherboard) GBFans shop $300 [Pack: Particle Accelerator Fiberglass Hero Shell](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/fiberglass-hero-shell) $60 V Hook $10 [1/4" split wire loom](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/14-split-wire-loom) (2’) $10 3/4" [splitless loom](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/34-splitless-wire-loom) (6’) $16 [Crank knob](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/crank-knob) GBFans shop $15 Booster Ladder Frame $20Clippard Brass set $20 5/32" SMC elbows set of 3 $15 GB2 3 piece resistor set $15 Complete Hose set $20 5/32" SMC straight fitting set $370 Assorted Aluminum pieces for the pack(such as [Injectors](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/injectors),HGA etc) So all together I figure I need another $500-600 not including the shell and Motherboard as these will be my Xmas and Birthday combined presents. the real expense will be the Aluminum pieces which I will probably order either from Vinney or Ejgunth87 Either way I can see my list slowly dwindling down, can not wait to have it all and then build my pack!!! ---

This is a really great thread. I find a lot of people complain about budget restraints and refuse to draw out their purchases and in the end never get a [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack).

Thank you the one mistake I made which I hope others do not, is ordering a few items within a few hours apart and from the supplier. Thus having to spend probably in total about a extra $100 or so in shipping. So make sure before you finalize your order you double check list to make sure you can include all you need and have money for in the same order, thus allowing you more saved for your next order, or more parts quicker. ---

I got my L brackets recently, and just tonight bought a riveter and tap and die set so that when I get the [motherboard](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/motherboard), shell and frame I can go ahead and get that all fitted. Though I gotta run to a hardware store and get a drill since, well, wait until Walmart I said, it’ll be cheaper there I said. Luckily Lowe’s has a nice Black and Decker drill for around 30 bucks. ---
