Semi-Noob on the block!

Hey everyone,

Took AJ’s advice and here to introduce myself. My name is Shawn and i’m from NB, Canada. Have been a Ghostbusters fan for as long as I can remember. Post diapers I think since I was born in 1984 :stuck_out_tongue: and have been a dreamer of owning my own Ghostbusting equipment since I found out about the Ghostbusters fans community around the new millennium.

Unfortunately for me i’ve never really had enough time or money to really go to town on this venture but the sun is rising and i’m hoping this is the year. I of course have my own Matty collection but as you know they have not made the pack. I started working on my own gear over a decade ago acquiring a motherboard from a fella in Canada by the ebay handle Multi-media Mayham, Alice pack from some army website, a kit that AJ Quick himself sold me some 10 years ago ish (which my cast heatsink came broken :-P) but I know its not his fault since mail handlers are not the best at handling our mail (especially internationally), and I also had the privilege of almost aquiring a PKE kit from Venkman71 but due to confusion and me moving and what not never got it but him and I worked it out in the end by fluke I might add (Very Honest Fella!).

I’m really glad that you opened up registration to the site again because the last time I was by here it was closed so I kinda closed the door for a while and ever since Matty released their replicas (think they kinda ■■■■■■ the goggles but I know i’m not the only person who thinks that) i kind of got interested again and have been creeping around the neighborhood in my spare time. Always surfing around E-bay and cry everytime I see Bob selling his so called premium packs for the crazy prices he did and after reading the banned sellers list I will not even look at his posts anymore since thats pretty dirty. Glad to see the shop on here loaded with the good stuff. From now until Halloween I might be able to acquire the missing components I need to make my dreams a reality.

I’d like to give a shout out to Charles Fincher (sepheras?) on promoting the site and getting me to come back and take a looksee because I probably wouldn’t have known the group was open again if it weren’t for him. I would also like to say that your gear is ridonkulous and I may have had a slight ■■■■■■ when I see the smoke coming from the N-filter and sheer awesomeness of your build.

Well I think i’ve rambled long enough and would just like to say thanks again for allowing me to be here and I hope that I can learn many things from you guys and be suited up by Halloween this year like the rest of you laughing it up like a boss :slight_smile:

Welcome back!

Can you tell me more about the heatsink? I don’t think I’ve ever sold a heatsink that wasn’t extruded aluminum.

Sent you a PM.
