Hey everyone!

I have been meaning to do this for years, but I have just never found the time. I am a navy vet, father of a great little man, husband to my high school sweatheart, and a HUGE GB fan! I have loved the Ghosbuster since I can remember. I was actually born the same year that the first film was released.

As a kid I wanted nothing more than to be a ghosbuster. I don’t mean I kind of liked them, I was obessed! Untill I was like 15 I wanted to be a real ghostbuster, and not in a ghosthunter kind of way. I mean a khaki flight suit wearing, proton pack toting ghosbuster. Well hell who am I kiding I STILL want that.

I am totally stoked to be going to my first convention, this years dragoncon! So I am taking the plunge and making my first uniform and googles for the event. My wife and I are SO excited about this. She is going as a ghosbuster though, she is going as a member of Organization 13, from her fav game kingdom hearts. I am afraid that I wont have time to finish a pack before the event. But halloween is just around the corner. Hoping to get my little man into it by dressing him up as slimer, or a little ghostbuster!

Looking forward to nerding it up with everyone!

Welcome Aboard, Ectodad. :smiley:

Good luck getting your proton pack done. I wanted mine done by now also, but I am aiming for Halloween as well. :walterpeck:

Triple ditto. :cool: :cool: :cool:

My granny, visiting me (and my twin) that Summer when we were a few months old, had to wait at the airport and decided to pass the time with a movie.

She told my mom right after that ‘Honey, you have to see this funny little movie I just saw…’

She bought us the VHS of each film when they came out, and we wore them out.

Thanks for all the warm welcomes! Cool story InKibuster. I am not quite sure how I got into myself. Its just always been, like breathing.

Would you question a rainbow? Just enjoy it, right?
