Bob. . . I absolutely love your creations, not only as a ghostbusters fan but everything you build. Your attention to even the tiniest of detail is phenomenal! You're the best.
We also use real hardware, screws, rivets, high end electronics, etc. These are hand made in the USA. If Matty made something like this, it would be thin ABS plastic, cheap stickers, everything on it would be fake, even the back board and back pack. It would be like a little kiddie toy. You have to see one of ours in person to really appreciate and understand what goes into making it. It's basically as close to the real thing as can be.
I have no doubt that Matty will never put out replicas as high in quality as what you're offering here, but their value for the money simply can't be beat. True, upon closer inspection their PKE meter and ghost trap are clearly plastic and feel toyish, but I'm still more than happy with what I got considering how little I paid for them
Stumbled upon your channel randomly, and love all your projects! Crazy attention to detail, definitely can tell you're passionate about your job. Wish I had the finances to buy a replica movie vehicle; maybe sometime in the future. Keep the videos coming
That's cool there are lots of resources out there and plans for you to build one for yourself out of all sorts of materials, my packs are studio quality and for those who can afford it. One day, maybe you can!! Good luck!
You can always try building one yourselves, Trust me I am building one and the cost add up fast. I am cutting corners on mine just because I am looking for a display item not something im going to wear to cons a lot. but if you look around the internet there are plenty of sources for info in you are handy.
Nice awesome job I see the heat up sound is correct unlike the last one were it made another sound before it and the strob led on the gun is the correct color too like it was in the movie most ppl have blue or blue & Orange on their's but the original movie color is white ;) and for $1,500 - $2,000 and up for those baby's I say it's worth it would love to have one for Halloween and other events
I don't think Matty or any company like them will ever make true, real Proton Packs like these. It is possible they might make some sort of a softer, plastic version but they have a hard time squeezing $130 out of fans who complain about the price of things. The market for people who want stuff like this is far to small. We only sell maybe 30-50 packs per year. They would never bother with numbers that small. These are made of real metal, real army ALICE packs, real hand laid fiberglass, etc.
$2500? If people are willing to pay that much, then by all means, charge it. But I'd be shocked if you're not getting a hefty profit margin out of it. This is why I look forward to Mattycollector putting out replica packs.
I think Bob said somewhere (Although I could be wrong) That he doesn't go through the effort to make something that already exists. Matel have already made ghost trap and PKE metre replicas that I hear are pretty awesome.
what do you think of the matty thrower? I am building one.....even picked up a few of your parts for it, but I think i am going to Incorporate there thrower into the pack?
As a Kid i always wanted something like this and soon as i have the money I WILL BUY one of these things. But i have a question. Im living in Germany could this be a problem when the Pack needs a recharge?
Wow Bob those proton packs you have made are fantastic. How much would one or 2 of those cost and would you ship to England? Thanks, and keep up the great work.
You're better off with one of Ben of Kent's proton pack kits. He's from the UK, if I'm not mistaken. It's way cheaper, better made, and offers great customer support. www.benofkentprops.com
Nice pack but the thrower firing switch isn't right. You need a momentary dpdt switch for the firing switch. It should activate 2 sets of lights and 2 different sounds on one switch. It is a little tricky to set up...
Are u ever going to make say the slime blower or maybe the proton pack from the 2009 video game? That would be awesome.i plan on being a buyer soon just need to save a little more.
the proton pack seems to be mounted very high on the alice pack, am I wrong? any thoughts or comments on that? also, your channel kicks ass, this is guaranteed to be inspiring lots of people out there, even if they arent commenting. please keep it up.
When it is mounted properly, it will stand up on it's own. The little notch at the bottom is a foot, like a kickstand. Many people mount them wrong. Some of the actors had them lower or higher depending on their height.

That is incredible. I've wanted one since I was 13 years old!! Dont ask me what I'd do with it - I just want one. :)

DOPE! AWESOME!
Incredible work. Hopefully I'll be sending an order in the future. As a huge GBers fan I have to ask, do you also build Slime Blowers from GB2?
Wow Bob those proton packs you have made are fantastic. How much would one or 2 of those cost and would you ship to England? Thanks, and keep up the great work.

That's really cool where are you guys located
Does the tip of the wand/gun extend and retract like the movies?
I heard that you have a pack with the matty wand..is that the one
I think your neutrana wands point to far out when assembled on the pack
Have you ever tried or made the video game Proton Pack?
That's kewl, can you make one shoots like in the movie?
Are u ever going to make say the slime blower or maybe the proton pack from the 2009 video game? That would be awesome.i plan on being a buyer soon just need to save a little more.
