Let’s see… I’m 32 years old, and have been a rabid fan since I was what, 9? My first costume I ever made myself was a Ghostbuster… Egon style a la the animated series :sigh: when I was just 11 years old. My fandom never really died down, and I even owned a ambulance/hearse combo for the time with the intent of tricking it out Ecto style… Sadly, circumstances made me abandon that project a few years ago…

However, things are back on track again and I’m once more hunting down a car, and am starting a new, movie accurate costume… and am amassing my items to make a [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack). I guess I’ve been re-inspired by fellow Ghostbusters enthusiasts I’ve seen recently out here in Denver.

Outside of that, I’m an avid cosplayer, and make costumes and props for various things as a near full time hobby. I suppose, in part, I feel that now my skills are finally decent enough to do my favorite fandom true justice. Anyway, I’m rambling… I might not post a whole lot, I tend to be quiet, but I’ll be lurking often. I’ve seen so much great stuff on here already… I don’t know why I never looked into this before, but better late than never!

I might just do so. I have a costume profile over on [Cosplay.com](http://Cosplay.com) that shows a bunch of my other stuff.

And last night I built some [Ecto Goggles](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-ecto-goggles) for the heck of doing so!
