Hi Nick! Thanks for posting here! Terrific work!

Guys, don't go cruising E-bay for those ALICE frames...yet.
We need too many, and SOME store ought to want to cut a deal to us for as many as we need, you know what I'm saying, and save us all some money.

I still haven't heard back from Monkey Depot on the jumpsuits, but it was close to the holiday weekend when i sent the E-mail. I will shoot them another E-mail about the ALICE frames too and their ability to get more quantities, and if can get a discount for such a large order of both items.

If not, then I'll write War-Toys and see what they can do for us.

 

[nick-a-tron]

yeah thats the alice frame set i purchased to measure my packs against.

getting the price down to $25 per pack shouldn't be a problem if the demand is high enough.

i'll sit back and let you all work out how many you need then just let me know and i can give you a final price for all the packs. but i will be checking in here each day to answer any questions etc anyone has

If the price of the proton packs goes down to around $25 each I'd be in for a set of 4 plus a trap to go with each if they are made available.
Nick,
Along with the traps do you have any other Ghostbusters projects planned?
A PKE meter would be another cool accessory to have.

 

[The Craw]

yes a PKE meter is a must. damn. now im getting too excited. ive always wanted a company to make 1/6 scale ghostbusters and now im pretty close to slapping my own together with great accessories and everything. thanks to everyone for offering this stuff.

 

[Aerosmith]

If I decide to get Venkman and Egon I will be interested in 2 packs.

Damn straight! This is something I've wanted to do for years. i've always been hoping that Hot Toys would pick up the license, but this franchise has never been that hot for high-end products.

Anyway, really getting jazzed about this now!

i never tried making customs like these before mainly cuz of the lack of a detailed proton pack. but now we got the hardest part out of the way.

 

[William Shatners Toupee]

I'd want 2 traps and a PKE Meter.

Yeah, my Egon would need one, but the PKE doesn't look terribly hard to sculpt in 1/6th scale. Ray's goggles would also definitely be cool to have.

 

[The Craw]

it would be so awesome to have a ray that looked like this, but i think id rather have a regular sculpt.

Speaking of which, do we need to start picking out reference pics for Ray and Winston? I'd really like a slightly open-mouth Zedmore, since Ernie Hudson pulls it off so well. I'll have to go digging for pics later.

EDIT: Something like this one from the Wiki entry?

Thats awesome if you guys want to help find reference. Remember to find the best side shots you can, as well as favorite expressions you'd want.
Do we Winston from part one or two? I prefer part one.

I kinda like this (from my Murray reference) for Ray.

Here's pic of Ray's goggles I also had in my unused Murray reference for people who are looking around for some:

ah yes the classic "why worry. each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back" shot.

Definitely GB1 Winston. I also like the 'somewhat concerned' look for Ray that you've got in that pic there.

 

[The Craw]

here's a pretty good shot of winston with an open mouth. dont know if that's what we want or not.

 

[Cryoguns]

Hmmm...the one I had in mind was more subtle, like the one in the Wiki article. I'm open to opinions if anyone has any other reference pics that they think would work.

 

[Aerosmith]

How about the getting hit by a ghost train Winston from GBII?

What about the 5th Ghostbuster Louis?

 

[Migwit]

OK, add me to the group list for one backpack. I also need the frame, so if there's a list for that (WilliamShatnerToupee, I think you're checking into this?), then put me on that one as well.

Nick-a-Tron, thanks for working with us on our multi-stage group commission!

 

[sladesuperagent]

For Ray, the "somewhat concerned" look would work, a slightly furrowed brow and maybe with the eyebrows up--but something that would match the cockier look of Peter really well and since Egon is a straightforward/serious look (which works for him).

I think the Wiki-shot Winston would work--with the mouth open, but an even look the whole way across.
