ell pretty much! There are a few things I have to add to it still cosmetically to make it 100% accurate but here is a video showcasing the lights and sounds! This took me awhile to finish it and awhile to figure out the lighting and the sounds.

haha thanks guys, it is actually not really that heavy. I'd estimate it to be about 10 lbs or less. I constructed it mostly out of ABS plastic, wood, and pvc piping.

I was thinking that it were merely nae bad, until the lights and sounds started coming out of it - took it into a world of awesomeness all of its own. Brilliant!

Wow! Your thingie there is totally squeal! I'm really impressed!
I really like what you can do with it.
Looks real big and heavy, but I bet you handle it like a pro. :)
Must have been real hard to get it up and going. Kudos on the great effort!

:o That proton pack is AWESOME. I am so totally f*cking it.

Funny there's a thread about regrets, because now my biggest one is officially the fact that I haven't spent more time of my life working on the picture perfect Ghostbusters proton pack and costume that even my fiance says I'm stupid for not doing.

You, sir, are living the dream. I salute you.
