Hasbro Ghostbusters Proton Pack | How to attach an ALICE frame

[@jamesoblivion]

Just got mine a few hours ago. First thing I did, after checking that the wand attached and worked properly, was mount it to the frame. I honestly can't get over how amazing this pack is for the price!

[@samhain8220]

@@ghostengineer I agree with you. I applaud anybody that has the time, energy and know how to take a bunch of parts and make those amazing (but heavy) 1:1 scale replicas, but this is our time and I’m enjoying it.

Just got my pack tonight. Came home from work and it was waiting for me. Alice pack was easy as pie to put on. Also switched out to the accurate wire sleeve. This thing is awesome!

[@tord6725]

I’ve just swapped out the yellow sleeve for the correct one and now I’m just waiting on my frame to arrive. The wand ships tomorrow so step by step I’m getting closer to complete

[@cameronbuck6907]

What sleeve did you use? Just got my pack yesterday and I am looking into some simple mods

My pack arrives tomorrow! I have everything set up, modded, and waiting for me after work to come home and put it all together for the first time! Can't wait!!

[@SahareStudios]

I wrapped the metal parts in stretchy black electrical tape. It prevents them scratching everything up and provides more contact patch for the rumble motor to the Alice frame. Looks better too

[@3xchris]

Def would like a little breakdown for the foam piece :)

[@andhowe6093]

Just got mine today,I’m so excited and happy 😆 😆😆😆!!!

[@bashcrash9148]

Yeah looks WAY better with the frame. Good call!

The info I've been looking for for two days, thank you

[@derekw83]

Got my shipping notification at 7 am today! Can’t wait!

[@TravisBurrell]

Jason! Thanks brother! I was confused on a couple of the brackets for a minute lol. I believe we met back in 2016. Travis from Steel City Ghostbusters.

[@Tootuff]

Hey Jason, do you by any chance remember what type of padding you used for the alice frame?

[@jedifire.]

Great Vid, now I feel ready to attach it when mine arrives

[@beneagle44]

thanks for this, mine is coming friday! so excited!

[@samhain8220]

Mine finally arrived today, just unboxed the first one and tested it out, taking a break then I’m going to start working on the 2nd one.

[@batman5214]

I just attached the Alice 2 pack and it does fit. Only 1 bracket didn’t attach to the pack. The brackets are snug but work. I think if I get spacers and new screws I could make them all work. It is solid now and wearable.

[@batman5214]

I would like to replace the Alice 2 buckle with the new buckle but it is sewn on.

[@ebwarg]

Is it an LC-1 or LC-2? kzbin.infoWNJqjRr7DOc?feature=share

[@kong_5661]

Use a quarter to assist with tightening the bottom screws

[@GhostbustersNews]

Good idea!

[@NathanLeeJames]

Hey Jason! I have heard the Rothco straps are untrustworthy, but currently I have two Roth i frames on order and was just planning to use them as is. Can you share links to the replacement straps/pads you used and also the neck pad supplies you used? If possible. Thanks!

[@gwynne-tendo]

Hey Jason, do you have a link for the frame on amazon? Thanks!

[@prettywiththelightsout]

I was missing 5 of the shorter screws on mine. Had to run to the hardware store. Was also missing the instructions in my box. Pretty weird.

[@HeroofInsanity]

Thank you for this. I’m making a GB costume to show up in Frozen Empire and wanted to be as accurate as possible but didn’t know how to set it up.

[@Tootuff]

Thanks so much for making this video!

[@DRod79135]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

[@loganbennett3108]

Yay ghostbusters news

[@HackerBilly13]

I just did this right before the video haha I hate how close it is to the Pack so Im currently about to head to Lowe's so I can pick up some stuff to make custom spacers that properly spaces the pack away

[@mastakilla6246]

Ahh I was worried about this.. and your talking from a wear and tear point of view? like eventual wear on the pack itself from the Alice frame being too close?

[@HackerBilly13]

@@mastakilla6246 no lol. The frame is too close to the pack. If you check the prop. You can see its all off

[@neuromorph]

the big discussion with LC1 frames is that the spacing between top and bottom isnt consistent, it is closer at the top than bottom. some people are putting the cross bars under the frame, rather than through it.

[@ramboBrad]

Thanks for the help!

[@bluesthing7490]

Hey Jason, where did you get the replacement straps that are thicker than standard LC-1 straps?

[@montycasinosbarandgrill]

Do you think the plastic on the pack is strong and durable enough without the ALICE frame? It’s really just a costume for me once or twice a year?

[@Topchip23]

Any recommendations for a jumpsuit please

[@hayward5337]

That’s awesome Hasbro made it so easy. I’m trying to psych myself into doing one for the Spirit Halloween pack. 😬

[@michaelbagwell5344]

Dude thanks for the video. I love all your videos and will definitely check this one again when I order my Alice Frame

[@noshotz5955]

Got a question, is there anything you would recommend doing to prevent the ALICE frame straps from slipping out of the top buckle, had that happen once due to not having enough strap coming out of the end of the buckle. I've since adjusted the straps so that more was coming out of the top buckles so that doesn't happen as easily, but I'm a bit worried about it coming loose over time while wearing it.

[@SpaceWizardCosplay]

Small zip-ties shuld do the trick.

[@DownByTheRiver1000]

You can thread the extra strap/webbing back over and in the same spot it comes out of so it makes a loop, try to eyeball the right size loop for it to roll up inside tightly and snugly. Saw this on a general Alice frame (not proton pack) YT vid. No tape required so you can always readjust and do it again.

[@anthonys665]

Did the screws come with the brackets too?

[@BlurayBen]

Thank you Jason looks very easy. Regards, Ben, Wales, UK 🇬🇧

[@JaceD4V1S88]

had an lc2, couldnt use it so bought an lc1 for 40 bucks, gonna use the other one for a metal pack im gonna build in the future

[@Cubsfan-hp1gw]

Im going to be using the Hasbro kidney pad on the Rothco frame, as Im a bigger dude and Hasbro made that one bigger than the standard Rothco one

[@windwakerluigi]

Any chance of linking the exact neoprene adhesive and foam wire tubing you got! Thanks! Trying to figure out what to get and the exact measurements to put on!

[@notbuster126]

Lowes or home depot have them in the pipes section (pipe insulation) both kinds are there.

[@MrDodge1911]

The padding for the alice frame where did you get that from?

[@DownByTheRiver1000]

Curious if you cut anything for the straps to pull up when wearing and also so they retain their adjustability. Can’t see anything but maybe a little notch for the center support cut out. Looks great though.

[@mattt233]

Just got a frame today from my local Army/Navy store. Kinda looks small so I hope it's big enough it was all they had.

[@BrandonFosterVhegha]

Hey, whats the name of the bolts that come with the spacers for the Alice frame

[@vlockley]

Does it still sit in the stand with the frame?

[@GhostbustersNews]

Yep!

[@quintessentiallyquirky1973]

There are videos circulating KZbin that show that the metal clip from the first wave of neutrino wands do not fit the proton pack???, if it’s true , will Hasbro send out replacements?

[@GhostbustersNews]

Will be covering it. Some do, some don't. It's kind of a toss up TBH.

[@gwynne-tendo]

Has anyone noticed the 2nd switch under the warning sticker under the volume crank? Doesn't seem to do anything, maybe a futureproofing for another addition to the line?

[@cramias1]

its an actual switch not just cosmetic, its just not attached to anything. I believe they said in one of the vids its intended for modders to find a use for

[@edwardrhoades6957]

Is there a trick to actually getting the wand to slide onto the bracket while wearing the pack? I ended up having to take the pack off to re-holster the wand.

[@prettywiththelightsout]

Probably a crap ton of practice hahah. It certainly seems impossible to do quickly. Though, as far as I'm aware you never see them re-holster in the movies, which is why the belt clip exists.

[@stevevanderslice2244]

Congrats on actually getting your pack. I got screwed by Ups on mine. Ups provided me with date and 90 min time window on when it was arriving and it never showed. Called Ups and "supervisor" hung up on me.

[@ArchoniusXXVII]

They were shipping via FedEx.

[@stevevanderslice2244]

I missed out on back the pack and had to order one secondhand and ups claims they can't locate.

[@markturner4951]

Quick question about frames in general for GB packs -- Do you recommend the same frames for the Spirit Halloween packs? I know the Spirit ones aren't exactly "to scale" like this new Hasbro pack is, so I'm not sure which frame would be best to use for my Spirit pack? TYIA

[@SemiDemonio]

The frames are the same. The only difference is that the pack will look bigger or smaller on it.

[@leonardtolman2014]

i got this model frame but my straps wont stay secure. they keep completely unthreading. also how to you reholster the wand lol i cant seem to get it.

[@la4sho23]

I just did a vid on an easy speaker upgrade I think will be great for alot of people..if you have time let me know what you think :)

[@cosmojames]

Nicely done. thank you

[@QuickPaw2000]

Anyone have a link to either Amazon or somewhere else where I can get this type of frame? No surpluses by me.

[@TheSpotlessMind93]

I got mine from Amazon. Rothco item number 2255 is the most accurate one for Afterlife.

[@Guncage81]

After 9 months of waiting my packs turned up and i get to unbox it tommorrow, ive had plenty of time to buy the upgrades ,wheres the best place to buy the foam for the frame im in Australia

[@kaleikealoha6775]

I've seen some people have success with the LC-2 frame too.

[@SpaceWizardCosplay]

That would need a lot of modifying because the rear crossbar sits back too far. It has to be nearly perpendicular with the motherboard.

[@kaleikealoha6775]

@@SpaceWizardCosplay i've seen it. Unmodified. It fits.

[@sjmaguirepdx]

Nice demonstration... I hate to nitpick but with the straps and kidney pad you used that's technically an LC-2 configuration and does not match the GB1 and GB2 look. The original LC-1 had a much narrower kidney pad without a quick release belt and the shoulder straps were also different. That said, your configuration is much more accurate to the afterlife frame.

[@BigJay715]

Link ro alice frame? Can't find it on Amazon

[@trevorjames8355]

Where can you get the padding?

[@defboyinc12]

Can you link to the exact A-Frame. Please

[@SpaceWizardCosplay]

Looks like a Rothco frame. They can be found on eBay by searching for "Rothco LC-1 ALICE frame". Fox Outdoor Supply has their own version which is nearly identical to this one.

[@joshallen100]

Nice roll thing at the top where did you find it. I like the black look of it. Where did you attach the tie wraps for that roll thing that goes on the top of the frame?

[@SemiDemonio]

Where can we find the thicker shoulder pads? I might need some of these too :D . Thanks so much for the awesome tutorial!

[@joecool101386]

your straps are on the wrong sides, you have the left strap on the right side and visa versa. The bottom parts of straps should be angled away not inward. Just fyi if its more comfortable for you then keep it like that lol.

[@GhostbustersNews]

DOH! Good catch.

[@bluesthing7490]

@@GhostbustersNews Where did you get those straps?

[@fluxl10]

For some reason my Alice frame doesn’t seem to he the right size. I can’t attach the side ones at the same as the bottom ones. I can do one or the other

[@SemiDemonio]

It just happens to me, or after adding the alice frame to the pack still doesn't stand by its own? It feels like the alice frame sits too high on the motherboard.

[@SpaceWizardCosplay]

The only thing that bothers me is that there are only 2 spacers included for the very bottom when there should be 4 in total. (2 more for the very top of the frame) But thank you, Jason, for showing us how it's done.

[@noshotz5955]

The likely reason for that would be that to be able to put spacers at the top, you would need to modify the ALICE frame as there's no place to screw them in to.
