Following this. The GB team is a group I've wanted to add to my verse for a while. I figure I have The Monster Squad and I have the Mystery Inc Gang, why not the GBs? I have a formula I want to use I just don't have the $ to buy the parts right now. I did pick up the new Ecto-1 and it is awesome. |

hopefully we can get some people to show and tell i had some joe backpacks and various bits in a baggy .now i have an idea for using some "vinyl" statue/static figure packs. i don't have a plan for figures yet though. none of the me joe figures i have look bulky enough. i might try and sculpt over all 4 so they start with similar construction. i'll post pics of the packs if they work out.

i found this the other day https://i.pinimg.com/originals/3c/66/4a ... 149ec8.jpg  i think i came up with 1 1/2" x 3/4" for our scale. or maybe that is what i came up with when i measured the static figures pack. |

The playmobil packs don’t fit directly. These are joe backpacks (I want to say the flat part of the ROC Heavy Duty pack) with the playmobil important bits glued on. I can take a closer pic in a few days when I’m home. Attachment: FFC56315-F909-4A5E-8127-C0DB2D244838.jpeg [ 550.14 KiB | Viewed 6282 times ] |

i got this .99c lot for the aliens and slimer mostly. i thought the gb guy was a loyal subjects. i was surprised it didn't have any articulation. so i had to track it down. it is a lootcrate exclusive, but i saw a few that said sdcc so maybe not exclusive to lc. the slimer isn't the one it comes with instead it is from the mini line. i like the mini as it fits in my "lab specimen tube".  https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mixed-action-f ... true&rt=nc i passed on this lot the first time i saw it mostly because i have those aliens already. i had to pull the trigger though and i'm glad i did. the lootcrate figure is solid but i hope the pack boils and pops. if not it will be lots of dremel work. the other night i reached out to a seller on ebay and made a deal on 3 more of them. all complete with the correct slimer. i don't have them in hand  https://www.ebay.com/itm/Loot-Crate-Gho ... 2749.l2649 they range in price on ebay starting at about $10 each shipped. i didn't make an best offer on them,but i did negotiate for much reduced shipping than they listed. i will report here with the ins and outs of the packs. |

I have two of the proton packs from Playmobile and was thinking of doing exactly what you said, put them on the frame of a HD pack. In the movie they are on Alice pack frames so it makes sense and works. |

well those vinyl statues won't boil and pop. they got bendable but the glue won't release. i got them chopped up but i'll need to grind the piece still attached since i cut with a lot room to spare. in the past i have ruined too many parts with a wandering razor knif. so im happy to grind on them and be safe. i'll try and get some pics soon. i just saw these. way too pricey for me. says 1:16 and 4.5" (but i wonder if that includes the base). https://shop.eaglemoss.com/int/ghostbus ... ne-box-set i guess if the heads and packs could be used it might be cheaper than casts. more work though!
