I love it! I really like the weathering/detail you put into it. First EGB pack I’ve seen with this much detail hands down. It’s a keeper in my books. Hopefully will inspire more to build it now that they’ve seen one done.

That is one sweet looking pack. Although the gun looks a bit on the scrawnny side, but that’s just my opinion. Don’t listen to it. This pack still rocks.

Looks great, but dont forget that the chick got her very own version, beside the fact of being the only one who carried the trap around her proton wand was different too.

Wow! You know you should take some pro photos of everything. You have like the best collection out there. Now your next project should be making a pack that really works. If it were possible it’d be awesome. Maybe I could make a flame thrower pack! :shock:

I think Frankfish was referring to the RGB [containment unit](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/containment-unit), not the one from the movie. The RGB containment unit would be much harder to pull off, just out of shear size.

Wow great job..

As far as parts names go..

The wand is Called a “Proton Gun” in the show most of the time by egon.

The canisters are called"Cartridges"

The Cartridges all come out of the pack.. and are for the guns.. In one episode.. all the cartridges get used in a catraption and the busters dont have any ammo..
