My department is dressing up as Ghostbusters this Halloween so one of my coworkers will be sporting it (I’ll be rocking the Haslab pack and wand). I’ve also got a near-complete set of vintage Real Ghostbusters gear that some lucky coworkers will get to use in case the Haslab PKE meter and Ghost Trap don’t arrive before Halloween. I don’t intend to repaint the vintage stuff, I think it’s funnier if it’s grown adults sporting old kids’ toys.

Xenomrph posted:I got this on clearance at Walmart for Yeah this thing is pretty nice. I bought one for my daughter, and then bought another one for myself, to strip the electronics out of it for putting into my own proton pack wand. Still trying to figure out what I'll do for putting it in, but yeah the lights and sound effects are pretty nice. It's really easy to remove the gray barrel extension part, which immediately gives the toy a more classic styled look, but the part does control that power up noise, so alas.

I just read the first issue of the Ghostbusters: Back in Town comic book. It's far from a masterpiece but there are a few jokes and character moments that work well imo.

I bought my light/sound kit from a sight called Rabid Prototypes and he is doing a kickstarter to restart production. I'm happy really happy with mine* so I thought I'd post a link. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shawnswift/the-positron-proton-pack-kit There might be cheaper options out there for a complete pack though, I haven't looked. *I had to manufacture my own mounts to integrate them into my frame, but that was fun.

I just noticed that a lot of the advertising for the film atm features this specific formation of the cast: Rudd, Murray and Wolfhard are given the most prominent spots, Hudson and Grace are shoved off to the side and don't even get to hold a neutrona wand, Potts didn't even make it onto the Blu-ray cover

Saw the movie this weekend and it felt serviceable: not great but it was a movie. It suffered a bit from the overly large cast, what with introducing new characters and giving the old folks more screentime. On the upside, there's a vibe that it corrects one thing the original movie did, namely sidelining Winston and it lets Ernie Hudson be the actually successful and together guy of the original group. The films should stop trying to make Slimer a thing, it didn't work in Ghostbusters 2 and it was always the worst part of the animated series too.

Give JMS a call, let's do a big screen adaptation of either 'Chicken, He Clucked' or 'The Devil To Pay'
