Dam Chris.....you and your friends make this stuff from(basically) scratch? F'n talented dude. Looks heavy also. THE heavier the better. Makes it feel real you know... --Mike
Thanks Mike! Yeah I've built a couple from scratch and the weight definitely makes a difference with the realism but also makes you wake up sore the next day! Thanks for watching man.
The attention to detail is second to none, simply amazing, the build is just pure art at its best! Thank you for the informative walk round of your build, was really enjoyable to watch, I’ve recently joined the gbfans forum and seen your name pop up so was great to stumble across this video, will you ever make/produce any more shells? As I hear your shells are the shells to get your hands on and I’d love to own one for my own build, thanks Adam
Hey Adam thank you for the generous comment, I appreciate it very much. As for shells I don't plan any at the moment but I'm planning another potential scratchbuild for early next year and might do a small run from those. Keep an eye out and thank you for watching sir!
@@ChrisBoshProps awesome! I’ll keep an eye out for sure and I look forward to seeing future uploads on your scratch build! have a great Christmas and New Years!
20:19 it is actually clinically insane the level off depth these nuthead builders will go into for the sake of accuracy. i love ghostbusters but never in a million years would i have known the damn alice frame had a plug or a port at the bottom of it from the 244p blurry 0.009 seconds of a single frame it would have been visible
Dammit, Chris. Killing me with the pack. Haha So many obsessive details. I wish we had better trap plans. Id finish my aluminum trap if so. I thought that hook looked familiar. Lol. Glad you still have it. Still have your gorgeous shell as well
Thanks Jimbo really appreciate it. Yah I'll be 3D printing Charlesworth Dynamics files, they are really great. You should finish that trap one day! Would love to see it. Just do it man.
Nice! So, I have a very awesome pack that’s messed on the GB1 Venkman pack as well that I bought from a guy a few months ago. I’m doing some Afterlife mods to it but I’m not making it a Phoebe pack, just an upgraded Venkman pack. The guy I bought it from said he had it since like 2007. My cyclotron cover and bumper can be removed separately. The actual shell is it 3 pieces of removed in sections. I can’t find any info on the maker of this shell though 🤔 would you be familiar? There is a metal badge on the lower side near the thrower cable on the pack that says “Boston Gear” but looking that company up, seems they aren’t in the prop business.. lol they are a real gear company so 🤷♂️
The Venkman screen used hero proton pack has an upside down Danger label on the thrower. Whether it was done intentional on the Spirit pack I'm not sure but even if it was a mistake its technically accurate to that particular movie proton pack.
I’ve been a fan for a while, gbfans and here. As a fellow prop builder I was absolutely glued to this video. Thanks for such a thorough tour of your pack! It was awesome to see it all in action too, I love all the accurate light effects, the bar graph, the bellows! Omg the bellows! I’ve never seen a real one. I have a few of Mack’s which are beautiful, but definitely don’t have that “give”. Just amazing work and I’m excited for your new trap build. While I’m here, your Robocop suit is the stuff of dreams. True artistry. Thanks again for sharing!
Thanks sir I really appreciate you watching and your generous comment. Thanks for sticking with me as I rambled on haha. It was a lot of fun recapping it!
@@ChrisBoshProps always tholem little bits yiu dont see iv ordered a pack should be here in jan i hope fingers crossed i made mine with gb1 and gb2 so the pack has both films

@@ChrisBoshPropsYour welcome dude.
THAT'S like working out twice in a day. ONE in the gym AND ANOTHER WOROUT creating stuff.

@@user-zs9mu8tx9u You to man! Enjoy your Holidays!
I always heard the GB 1 packs had no spacers on the bumpers
That is true. I built this pack close to 10 years ago, a few things have been discovered since then that I haven't changed yet.
@@ChrisBoshProps its a shame they didn’t just make new packs for GB2, then we wouldn’t have to do so much “archaeology”
@@andy86i No kidding I thought I knew it all back then but there is always something to change haha. Maybe one day I'll change some things.
❤INCREDIBLE!❤

I completely agree. Preach on brotha!
AMAZING....here my two cents: switch to anti-clockwise cyclotron lights if you want to match screen accuracy ;)
Still the best shells in the game!
Haha thanks man!

Do you build to sell?
No I usually don't. I have sold My pack shells in the past and a few others things I've made.
What's the story behind the upside down Danger sticker on the wand?

I always thought the v hooks in gb1 was straight so the wand sat straight up in gb2 they angled the v hook for easy grab
The GB1 hooks still had a slight angle. The GB2 angle was much more extreme.
