The Ecto Containment Unit Viewing Screen

I debuted the add on at spooky empire with the gb fans table, the response was better than i thought the monitor has speakers so you could hear what was being watched on the top monitor and the bottom one well that’s where you can be inside the unit.

HAHA! That is too sick!

hahaha super cool!!!

Probably the best homemade CU ive ever seen.

Agreed! It’s brilliant! :cool:

I’m a big fan of this. Excellent work!

Does Walter Peck have to come shut off the power so the people can get out by exploding through the roof?

Definetly awesome! Great work man

That’s pretty awesome. Any tips on building one?

I’m still convinced your containment unit wall inspired the Mattel toy. At San Diego they told us they looked at pictures and websites from most of the teams out there for reference.

Thanks everyone for your comments it means a lot to me, in fact of all props in the gb verse the containment unit is one that is very near and dear to me. so its nice to know the reaction from so many of you is positive.

tips…

have a lot of room to work, plastic is a friend… well most plastic is.

and if your wondering… it weights a lot the viewing screen not so much but the unit itself is about a 3 man lift job.

I do feel the toy looks oddly like my design and just the whole idea of putting it on a wall, well im pretty sure they took that from me.

and as far as the shoot goes I’m pretty sure they got the size wrong

again thanks everyone.

Wow man, awesome! Wish I could’ve gotten to see it in person. Maybe some day :smiley: Awesome work again.

Cool idea.

you so have to bring this thing to D-Con if you are going…if thats even possible!

I do have to know, does it have an off switch and if it does, do you have the siren going off when it is de-activated?

I’m curious. Is there a reason you went with a square-tile backing instead of the cinder block wall that was in the movie? It looks awesome, but I was just wondering if you had a reason for it. It’s got kind of a “ECU mounted-in-the-bathroom” quality to it. Just kidding. : p

I’d love to take this to D-con for a background for gb fans table,

However there are concerns

Safety: traveling from Tampa to Atlanta and making sure there is no damage to the unit.

Transportation: Tampa Florida to Atlanta georgia How?without having any major damage?

Security: fan table rooms those are open to the public where anybody can get to it, if there was a way for it to be protected when the fan areas are closed?

also my finances to get it there i don’t know if i could afford it this year. I don’t know. and plus Dan and A.J. haven’t really talked to me about it yet, and I would never assume that the unit is welcomed there, I don’t want to overstep my bounds. but if they would like it there and can help figure a way to have it up there for pke surge who knows… I love P.K.E. Surge and would like to help in any humanly way possible.

Would you like to haul around something made of cinder block???

This unit is portable I can take it just about anywhere because of the design, it not like other units which are confined to someones home, which is awesome but I wanted to make mine so I could take it places and show others.

I work in the home improvement field for the past 6 years have access to multiple kinds of fake and faux wall board finishing and not to mention our s.o.s. catalogs that give more than one option.

however as of to date there are no fake or faux type of cinder block paneling. trust me I would have changed it.

but yes it is bathroom paneling, and you know it cleans very easily if anything gets on it. and is a very sterile background, it doesn’t take away from the unit.

So if you can find me the cinder block light weight paneling please show me…

thanks.

Well, I didn’t mean to come across as short-selling your ECU. I think it looks awesome! I was only curious. I just thought that you might’ve had a reason for the tile, that’s all. Again, I think what you’ve done here is nothing short of spectacular.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! beyond awesome!!!

This is great! I’m completely envious! I wants one!

keeps getting better and better. Can Peck come and clan out my ECU? Those darned ecto filters keep getting jammed…
