Around 2003, I visited all the Ghostbusters sites and forums while building my costume. I had help from many wonderful people who set me in the right direction, sold me parts for my pack and had nothing but nice things to say. I really appreciated all the help and camaraderie they gave me.
So flash forward to this year, I have worn my costume on several Halloweens, including marched in the NYC Halloween parade, which was met with great enthusiasm by the crowd. A friend of mine wanted to see better pictures of my costume recently, as I had never really taken full outfit and pack pics myself that I was satisfied with.
Well here they are, I had to fix several loose things on the pack before i could even put it back on, but I’m sure you guys are used to that problem. Im so afraid to wear this in public in fear of getting destroyed more by passerbys or ooglers.
These were taken last week.
What can you say? Uniform looks a little shop worn (as it should) nice looking pack, googles, sweet trap. Believe me, if I can post my unholy terrors, you got nothing to worry about. : )
SO COOL, so good. Love the trap, pack and uniform! They are excellent
Thanks guys, I appreciate the comments. I got the shop worn look of the overalls by leaving them bundled up in a paper bag for a few years in my attic/basement. I wasn’t going for that look, but it works well and I didnt have to do a thing besides be lazy about taking care of them.
wow.
great gear.
I’m impressed.
Does the pack and gun have functional lights?
I hope mine comes out as sweet as yours does!!
I’m trying to have mine done by Halloween this year,
but want a great looking pack that’s easy to make (almost impossible)
But I’ll do my best!!
It has lights but they do not oscillate like some of the other packs here. I didnt know how to wire that electronics stuff. SO what i did is buy some christmas lights that are battery powered, and hooked them up into the appropriate areas. The ones in the gun/thrower are actually led lights attached to 9 volts from radio shack, that is the extend of my wiring knowledge (attaching two wires together).
