Super small update on this pack. I was up in New Hampshire this past weekend for my birthday and Jonny Ruckus had a surprise for me! He made us blue fuse labels for our latest GB1 packs! ![image]([http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS) GB1 OMNI Pack Build\_\_DSC2126\_zpsdc8e2647.jpg) Lets take a step back quick. In Ghostbusters, one of the 2 packs that [Bill Murray](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/bill-murray) is seen wearing is a pack that seems to have a blue fuse label on it. ![image]([http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS) GB1 OMNI Pack Build\_vlcsnap-75870\_zpsc1d21dc0.png) ![image]([http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS) GB1 OMNI Pack Build\_GB-HD-Ref-35\_zps848c9567.jpg) Now 2 caveats: First and foremost, I am pretty sure that there is no such thing as a “blue” fuse label on any of the packs in either film. What I think we are seeing in GB1 is the red of the fuse label had peeled off and left only the bare brushed aluminum label base. “But Matt, why is it blue then!?” Well, any time we see the label, its exterior shots in NYC. I would bet money what we are seeing is the blue Fall [New York City](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/new-york-city) sky reflecting off the aluminum of the label. BAM, “blue” label. But since a bare aluminum label would be boring, Jon and I made the mythical blue fuse label instead! Second, I know the OMNI pack is not the pack that this “label” is seen on throughout GB1; it was the pack that became known as the “Murray Pack”. But I always thought this detail was neat, so I decided to add it to my OMNI pack, regardless. This is most likely the last movie pack I make for myself, so its my last chance to have this detail on a pack. That’s it! You will probably see more of this build once it gets warm out and I can start painting the wand for this as well as work on my game pack build. ---

This is really, really cool, Matt! I like it a lot. Unique and clever, and it’s your pack so do it how you like! 🆒 ---

About the N Filter plate, if you don’t mind an extra two pennies… It looks like the plate was welded to the [n-filter](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/n-filter) originally. And at some point got knocked off, you can see they used the same 0.063 used in the gun and [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm). It’s too thin to hold a 3" tube, especially since it’s softer than normal because of the weld heat. You can see how it pulled on the corner from the left. The glue there must have been just a quick repair that avoided removing the rivets and re-welding the plate, which would also require stripping the old paint, and repainting after the re-weld. ---

Matt, how did you go about adding the “■■■■■■■” to the EDA disks, did you add rivets or a couple of bolts/screws which you then filled in the holes of? ---

I drilled 2 holes and put a pop rivet into each disk. Then I did an intentionally crappy job cleaning them up with [Squadron Putty](http://www.amazon.com/Tube-Green-Putty-Squadron-Tools/dp/B000H7MVMG?tag=gbfans-discourse-20). That’s all really.

I guess I have had this project collect enough dust on my work bench. Time to get this sucker finished! ![image]([http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/mburkit/HMS) GB1 OMNI Pack Build\_IMG\_20150326\_111237\_zpsxyvqnu5i.jpg) I need her finished because she may be pressed into work soon. . .

Everything mostly fit together. I still need a few bolts to before I can declare it finished with dry fitting and ready for paint. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/e/9/e9b6af89448a089958b21c83176d31652a528e8c.jpeg) Probably the first time in this community that a metal wand has the accurate incandescent bargraph from the GB1 hero packs sitting in it. I’m super excited that it went together so well so far with just an evening’s worth of work. ---

Not sure… I’m trying to remember if the forum had downtime between the start of this year, and April of 2015… if a load of posts that were here from that period had vanished, it could have been due to some down time resulting from a hack, but I honestly can’t remember anymore. ---

Matt’s lost interest in GB Prop building and it’s sat in his basement for the last year or so. ---

Jack would be correct. I became extremely burned out over the past 2 years in regards to the Ghostbusters fandom. This sucker has been sitting down in my basement, collecting dust right in front of my Game Pack on my work bench. I’m at the point that I need to wire wrap electronics for the pack and install the electronics I designed and created for the wand as well. The front handle is not painted yet because I am still debating if I need to drill out a hole on the bottom edge of the one gun ear for the flash bulb wiring. There are not many reference photos of the OMNI pack that shows whether or not they bothered to drill a hole to pass through a wire to the banjo and up into the tip of the acrylic. Here’s some photos of how it looks now: [![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/1/7/176beccea602249909133683335fa96937fea3af.jpeg)](http://s66.photobucket.com/user/mburkit/media/HMS%20GB1%20OMNI%20Pack%20Build/IMG_20160818_211124_zpsipp8yu06.jpg.html) [![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/6/c/6cbd621da60bca0adbec6777ed35c79641e5483b.jpeg)](http://s66.photobucket.com/user/mburkit/media/HMS%20GB1%20OMNI%20Pack%20Build/IMG_20160818_211208_zpsyktxfsi3.jpg.html) One day I will finish this pack because I have thousands of dollars into it. And when I do, I will come back and finish this thread, if anyone cares.
