The protons grenades are cool, but I would clean up the goo around the edges to make them look “clean” The trap turned out really well considering that it was dollar store stuff! The goo is supposed to be ecto-plasm that is part of the grenade or what powers it. It’s actually black-light sensitive too that I discovered while filming with a friend today. I think I will leave it, especially after I burned my finger while make them 😛 ---

I have thought of it, but I dont have any plans for one at the moment. I have an old guitar pedal around here someplace, but for now I think Im full of props to be making more. ---

A ghostbuster is a ghostbuster. even im itchin’ to make a new one to get just a little... I can’t help but feel really, really bad for this guy. If you’ve ever been stuck with a Halloween costume that didn’t turn out like you hoped, this will be a painful thread to read. As for the Dollar Store [ghost trap](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/ghost-trap), thumbs up! Very nice work on a very nice budget. ---

I will work on a tutorial somehow. If anything I will at least do a piece breakdown like I did the [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) and [Slime Blowers](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/slime-blower). If Im going to spend my time on making something, I wont let it look cheap 🙂 ---

What i would add to make it look perfect is the base that holds the wheels.. That´s the only thing that i thinck its missing… It´ll make it look taller. I really really like it, will try to build one for sure. Sal ---

But then I came across some 1 1/4" caster wheels that the trap now has attached via velcro; which works out nice because they can simply be pulled off if not needed or get in the way. ---

Sorry for the thread necromancy… but without necromancers, the boys would be out of jobs… Anyway, I as well would like a listing of the objects used. I could make out some things in the photo, but others were hard to see (I don’t have one of those fancy, new-fangled high def computer monitors… mine’s from a 95 Gateway lol). While I won’t have this done ofr Hallow’s Eve and will be going as Marshmallow Man again, I will have it done for Comicon San Diego next year 😃 My main problem is price. You’ve fixed that for me. Don’t worry, I have no plans of copying your work exactly. I’m going to customize mine a bit. I think I’ll make my own thrower. I loved your [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack), car, and [slime blower](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/slime-blower). You’re really amazing. ---

I’m wondering what the handle goes to? Also, it looks like the parts pic has a box with led lights in it. (LED and something illegible) Maybe you could post that image larger on photobucket or some such? ---

The handle is from a dollar store tire shine applicator that was cut apart and then just bolted onto the white box.
