Inflatable Pack - Help!

Equipment Proton Packs
1

Hey all!

So I am in a predicament. I just bought that Ghostbusters costume on ebay. Used. THINKING it came with that inflatable proton pack. Just discovered after I’ve paid, that it does not include it. I would love to go all out and make a really cool cheap proton pack last minute, but the thing is I’m celebrating Halloween in a different town with my friend and I’m taking the train with very limited baggage. Therefore, inflatable proton pack is pretty much the only option for me. I’ve searched to no avail and can’t seem to find JUST an inflatable one for sale. Does ANYONE have one they would sell me, or could perhaps lead me in the right direction? I’m really disappointed and don’t want to look like a major tool in just a jumpsuit.

Thanks!

Probably your only option is to buy a new costume at a local store.

You could always use a black back pack with some hose and stuff.

Thanks all for the suggestions :slight_smile: Another member is actually sending me theirs. I am thrilled! This forum is pretty damn awesome. I can’t believe I wasn’t aware of it’s existence before.

Smithy, why are you digging up all of these old threads? Just wondering?

I’m sorry Paul, I hadn’t been looking at the dates but I have been reprimanded by the Webmaster and will be more careful in future - sorry all !

No need to be sorry to me, man. I was just inquiring.

10

Why the hell were you reprimanded? What’s wrong with necroposting if you have a comment about an old thread or even a few dozen?

There’s a difference between adding to the conversation and bumping for no reason.

12

When you have a subject that has essentially been satisfied there’s no reason to post new suggestions almost a year after the thread died, especially when it’s clear the original poster dosn’t visit here that often (if at all).

And desesperately wants to get their post count up to sell something. Or something.

14

If the requirement to sell is 50 posts plus 90 days of membership, why cram in 28 a day just to get posts up and then wait 3 months?

I read his posts and most of em seemed enthusiastic. Out of date as hell and a bit of overkill, but they struck me as genuine.

Just my unsolicited 2 cents. Folks tend to pile up on anything suspect these days…

It’s a bit more than suspect… a lot of his posts offered very little to the topics in question other than a brief remark.

He’s just happy to be here.
