As inspired by a lot of your collections here, I thought that I would take the time to start to photograph mine and share my collection display. A lot of the stuff is the newer [Mattel](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/mattel) but I also have a few oldies in the pile. (I lost all my originals to my faded childhood and a mother who gave them away. Time to rebuild!) I have a few more odds and ends laying about that I will get around to photographing and sharing with you all soon. And yes, those are Bill and Sigourney signed GB2 cards. 🙂 I am also looking at buying a house at the moment with the green light from my wife to do whatever I want with a den area. Thinking of doing an old firehouse idea project where ever I end up. A lot of great ideas from the folks here and I appreciate that. (Especially the idea of a brick facade painted in the white and green theme of Hook and Ladder 8 for walling.) ---

This is the start of something beautiful,can’t wait to see more 🙂 ---

I love the signed [trading cards](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/ghostbusters-2/trading-cards), how have I never thought of that? ---

Prints by James Hance. (Going to be 2 on each side of last posted poster) ![image](http://i44.tinypic.com/1zzjokm.jpg) I also was digging around and ended up in fuzzymath’s slime topic. I figured I’d do my own. Already halved the caution tape and put it on the bottom. Hated how thick that “out of the box” tape was but originally was lazy. Hours later, I’m still scraping my bad judgement off. ![image](http://i39.tinypic.com/2im8d9x.jpg) Next plans include faux brick painted white with olive striping as in the interior of the firehouse for my rec room. ---

New shelf collection. Original ECTO and my attempted restore. Also have a print from Scott Blair in the background. ![image](http://i43.tinypic.com/vx18y.jpg) ![image](http://i43.tinypic.com/2zjgvuq.jpg) Also recently stumbled upon a heap of TMNT stuff at an antique store. (I have a job where I get to talk to people which lead me to talking with an antique store owner which lead to me talking about vintage 80s/90s toys which lead me to finding out about this butt load of TMNT toys.) I got the entire lot for $50 and ended up with 47 figures (including a RGB Dracula and Wicked Wheelie set), 6 vehicles (including a complete Technodrome) and various other odds and ends. I felt giddy as can be after getting all that for that price. ![image](http://i44.tinypic.com/sdk94y.jpg) ---

I moved to a new house last month and have moved my colleciton thread to a “other props thread” due to it being a GB themed room: [http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=34912&p=461763#p461763](http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=34912&p=461763#p461763) ---

PM sent Jay. I got these from [GhostbusterNews.com](http://GhostbusterNews.com)’s spreadshirt store. They are great in idea but only okay quality. Really stunk from the custom ink and you can tell its a thin layer of hard dried ink on the front. ![image](http://i43.tinypic.com/dbmkjl.jpg) ---

A good friend of mine secured this from the Wizard World Nashville for me. I cant wait to hang him up next to Danny.

I work in a retail store that has Jambox by Jawbone bluetooth speakers and when market told us to toss the display with an actual speaker, I asked if I could retain it for a display shelf. No one saw a problem with it and thus I brought home an extremely heavy display. I now have it bluetoothed to my ipad with my GB and GB2 soundtracks to control the ‘bustin’ tunes for entertaining folks in my new ECTO Man Cave. Tonight, I cleaned it up and installed some rope lighting that I found.

I tried both with nothing on the end of the hose and also a bubble stone. The advantage went to a bare end. I just wish I could use this without having to open the jar hinge but I fear if I modified one of these jars that the shampoo inside would start to dry up or seep into the hose.

Added a few more pieces as of late but since uploading from an ipad is kinda terrible, I wait for a good enough chunk of items. ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/heroic21/7cffba9fc554c9b0685d98257a941ac2.jpg) Added a Hardee’s glass from my parents house, mini mate Scoleris, and a few 12" props. ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/heroic21/2179bcf831d8fb378f01df973f4cbc53.jpg) Added RTBY series and Louis!

He said he had something for me as he collects vinyl LPs. Found the official soundtrack in my work locker today! [Next page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/heroic35s-ecto-man-cave/16132.md?page=2)
