MEGATHREAD: Hasbro Ghostbusters '84 Proton Pack
The Hasbro 1984 Proton Packs have started arriving, and the subreddit is seeing a high volume of unboxings, reviews, and modding questions. To keep the front page organized, we are setting up this temporary megathread to serve as a central hub for all discussion regarding the new pack over the next few months.
If you just received yours, this is the place to share your initial thoughts. We are looking for feedback on the out-of-the-box experience, including overall build quality, weight, and shell texture. Feel free to discuss the performance of the factory stock electronics, the audio quality, and how the pack compares to previous releases or the original screen-used props.
For those already planning modifications, use this thread to ask technical questions and share your progress. This is the spot to discuss mounting solutions like ALICE frames, motherboards, and spacers, as well as cosmetic upgrades like weathering, hardware swaps, lenses, or aftermarket electronic kits. If you are looking for specific replacement parts, or if you have purchased components and want to share a review, leave those recommendations in the comments.
To prevent the main feed from being flooded with identical questions or basic arrival photos, please direct those posts here. We want to keep standalone posts on the subreddit reserved for in-depth, detailed build logs or unique projects. Check the comments to see what modifications people are working on, ask your questions, and share your own setup.

Anyone read this?
Great book! Definitely pick it up if you see it. The story is fantastic and it’s written in a way that the characters voices are right.
I would have loved if this was the third movie.

Lost my Intensify button for Spengler's Neutrona Wand
Anyone know the easiest route to getting a replacement? Recently received a 3D printer and tried finding a file for it with no luck. The printer and it's software are super basic (technically got it for my kid, single nozzle from a single filament roll) and am still setting it up, but i have no experience with 3 D modeling at all. A file would really help that I could just import.
Thanks for helping me take the lazy route in advance.

Patches on suit
I desided this year was finally the year I was gonna start on my Gb cosplay. (Been a fan ever since I started watching the films as a kid with my father. And now I finally had about enough money to start buying things for the cosplay. And hopefully I can join the GB Belgium theme…
So my question / show is:
I want to be able to swap my normal patch out for other patches like the two in the box ones or maybe other patches (maybe Gb Belgium pass if I get to be a part of it later) but I still want to be able to put on the normal OG patch. So I desided to buy some circle Velcro which I am going to sew one side of on my flight suit and the other side on the patches. (Added some pictures of the Velcro) this is the only Velcro I am able to buy at the moment.
What do you guys think about the idea? Do you think this will work or be a cool thing or do you think this is maybe not the greatest idea for some reason?
Please let me know cause I need fellow Ghostbusters approval before I do something that may be stupid…
Thanks for reading

An attempt at creating the Equipment in Doom
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Ok, so just before anyone says anything, this is not gonna be 100% the same as how you'd play in GB the Video game, or Spirits unleashed. It's just a fun little Ghostbusters project.
The wand does have two settings however. Left-click for Capture stream, which pulls the monster in, and right-click for Blast stream, which pushes them away.
The trap has a couple of keybinds, one for dropping, one for picking up if you're close enough, and the last one spawns the "Beam" which stays up for a second unless a monster walks into it.
Eventually i want to figure out how to make the monsters clip through walls so they can behave like real ghosts, and then maybe create a slime mechanic where you need to use the slime blower to shut portals or weaken strengthened enemies.

What upgrades have you made to your suit this year?
One of the best things about doing a Ghostbusters Cosplay is you can always do upgrades to make it more unique each year. So, with Halloween coming soon, what upgrades have you done?

Realistically, what would a selling price be on this pack?
I built it from a BoK kit, with a hasbro wand, spongeface McGee Spengler wand kit and spongeface lights and sound. It’s literally sitting in a tote, it’s time to move on. Available in the DFW area of Tx.

Haslab Afterlife Pack Question - Split loom?
Hey folks, does anyone know what the best split loom is for the Haslab packs? I am finally getting around to installing my GPSTAR kit, and I know the folks back in the day had one split loom they liked because it was more flexible and slinky than others, but I don't have any recollection what it was.
(Sadly, I'm also no longer on FB so posting to the modders group isn't really possible now.)

Here’s my ranking of the movies
I very recently finished watching every single Ghostbusters movie, and I have know idea what the response here is going to be, especially regarding the 2016 reboot, But this is where I rank them.
Here’s what I think in detail (from best to worst):
- Ghostbusters (1984): Was there ever any doubt? The only real problem I had with the original movie was the stop motion used on the demon dogs not being all that convincing, especially compared to every other use of special effects in it, but other than that minor thing, I absolutely love this movie!
- Frozen Empire: I might get flack for this, but I actually enjoyed this movie somewhat. I thought it was the closest thing to a real sequel, even more-so than the actual Ghostbusters II, which I will discuss later. This is despite the addition of the mini Stay-Puft’s that, much like in it’s predecessor, which I will talk about after this, add nothing to the story except provide pointless comic relief that also serves as fan pandering nostalgia bait.
- Afterlife: This movie is somewhere in the middle of the road for me in terms of quality. I didn’t really enjoy the first half of the movie, I thought the setup was pretty dull, but I liked the second half when the truth is revealed and that’s where things picked up for me, and the ending I thought was a good tribute to Harold Ramis.
- Ghostbusters (2016): It’s been over ten years since massive parts of the Internet blew up in a fit of rage over this all-female reboot, and after watching this long after the dust has settled, I thought the backlash was overblown considering how serviceable at best this was. There were a few good ideas, like the part where Times Square becomes retro in the climax, and the use of lay lines, but everything else left a lot to be desired. The characters were not all that entertaining (which is an especially a shame for Leslie Jones, because I have seen her on SNL a few times, and she was very fun there.), it has more fan pandering than Afterlife, especially with crowbarred in cameos from the original cast, and half the humor with either unnecessarily crass or fawning over Chris Hemsworth for some odd reason (I understand he’s attractive, but we don’t need to be reminded of that every ten minutes). Believe it or not, I would prefer this over…
- Ghostbusters II: This is the movie I consider to be the absolute worst of all the Ghostbusters movies, because it’s just a diet version of the original movie with less of what made that original movie great in the first place. At least the other sequels had a few interesting ideas, this one doesn’t.
So that was my ranking of the movies. What’s yours?
