What I don’t get, is all of you folks are worried about the external prop outfit stuff with the hose, but no one ever talks about inside the suit. I’m trying to get as authentic as possible in finishing up my uni, and I’ve got a few options here, but I just don’t know what was screen accurate. Help me out?

Or… [http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=catheters&hl=en&prmd=ivnsb&biw=1275&bih=683&bav=on.1,or.&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=8062550814226446562&sa=X&ei=k8tqTdyVOMOftwfNh7nmAg&ved=0CIUBEPMCMAU#ps-sellers](http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=catheters&hl=en&prmd=ivnsb&biw=1275&bih=683&bav=on.1,or.&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=8062550814226446562&sa=X&ei=k8tqTdyVOMOftwfNh7nmAg&ved=0CIUBEPMCMAU#ps-sellers) there’s these, which are much cheaper, but possibly too far down the road of frugality for a true Ghostbusting experience. Finally, we have this: [http://www.amazon.com/`Gizmo-Male-External-Catheter-Mentor/dp/B000LX4K6Q](http://www.amazon.com/%60Gizmo-Male-External-Catheter-Mentor/dp/B000LX4K6Q?tag=gbfans-discourse-20) I’m considering this last one here; it’s middle ground as far as price go, but it’s really that name, “Gizmo” that gets me. It’s equal parts [Gremlins](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/gremlin) nostalgia and technobabble that are working for it. Thoughts? Links in this post may be affiliate links.

That was my thought - nothing special about it, either. Just adhesive tape and the cold kiss of a catheter against your skin. I really think AJ ought to snag some of these for the GBF shop. ---
