[@timsep1]

I’m amazed these landed in hands so fast. Ordered asap got here on Friday. It’s honestly way better than I was hoping for. Good job to the spirit Halloween crew.

[@WOLVERINE25TH]

All the good crap comes out when I'm broke!!! Hopefully these will be still available by the time I get some money together. Overall, for a budget pack, they look pretty good.

[@Enclave_high_command5552]

Same

[@TiagoSeiler]

Same :-(

[@mikemeggison5084]

I dunno, I actually think they should make one out of iron and lead to replicate the experience of wanting to barf going up too many stairs. In a twisted sort of way, I think Bill Murray would want it that way. ...as long as it was happening to someone else.

[@bsfishing7073]

Why don’t you just make it yourself 😅and show us how you did it 😂

[@Autobot_Studios]

Try to copy the shape of the spirit Halloween shell with metal parts, that should do it

[@youtubesuxnow8766]

Also if you’ve never been on spirit Halloween‘s website, or if you clear your Internet browsers’ cookies, they offer a 20% off coupon that pops-up....well if you put your email in, and it does work. Also, I know it works because I was able to get two of them, and the base price was only $200 each, it took 50 bucks off.

[@j-pastel-yellow]

i was honestly expecting it to be quite a bit smaller than it is. i’m really impressed with this release, and i’m definitely going to be picking a couple of them up. i missed the haslab version, and the fun/halloween costumes pack is just a bit out of my price range, not to mention the repeated delays. super stoked about these, and i can’t wait to see what the custom scene does with them

[@nathansnyder971]

So happy I ordered one when you first gave a heads up. Mine came in the mail Friday and I'm so happy and excited with it.

[@lilPopper]

Quite the improvement, especially for the price. Sure there's gonna be mods, but less mods to do. Just add the Alice frame, possibly extend the wand tip. Also, a great option for those on budget and couldn't get the Hasbro Spengler pack.

[@ZeroWeskerX]

I'm pretty confident that this won't be the last iteration of the Proton Pack that Spirit Halloween does. This is the third version and with Hasbro and other companies making more accurate packs, I'm willing to bet that Spirit sees this as an opportunity to step up their game. Personally I love the pack itself but I'm a bit disappointed with the Neutrino Wand, which makes sense why Hasbro and Mattel make separate wands with more detail.

[@PowerGlove79]

And I’ll keep paying haha

[@TheMyersMaskFan]

I bought the first spirit pack released in 2017, and at the time I was super happy finally being able to have a proton pack. Unfortunately I learned how much smaller it was than a real pack and it drove me nuts. I couldn’t afford the HasLab pack at the time it was available but…I just got this new pack yesterday and I almost cried! Such a beautiful pack for one heck of a price!

[@BowserMovies1989]

Well Jas, once again you convinced me to get something Ghostbusters related from my favorite Halloween shop. I just ordered it.

[@BigAl2k6]

Pretty funny that the budget spirit pack has a proper V Hook while the super duper expensive movie accurate prop casted proton pack doesnt

[@SpaceWizardCosplay]

That's why I added magnetic guns mounts (55 pound pull) to my Haslab pack and neutrona wand. My wand doesn't budge, unless I remove it myself.

[@johnnysanchez1909]

I wish they had a charger option other than batteries. This is Amazing nonetheless.

[@reallydumbforeal1]

yeah that's weird. it's 2023, there's no reason why any electronic device shouldn't be able to be charged.

[@DarkStarFox]

Not to be mean but HalloweenCostumes might as well just cancel theirs now. After multiple delays, the less than stellar appearance of the prototype, the price equal to the Hasbro pack and 1st run wand together and with hardly any of the features with that high price point, I can’t see anyone preordering or buying one now. Spirit put out something that looks better at half the price. HalloweenCostumes’ pack is pretty much dead in the water.

[@reeganevans6707]

Excellent review! Every fibre of my being would kill for this type of pack!! 🚫🔥

[@leocor42]

As detailed as the thrower is, I think when I get mine, I'll swap it out for the Hasbro one, add the V-hook from this Pack to the Hasbro thrower (as they appear to be much more accurate), and convert the Spirit thrower into an Afterlife-style temple sentry turret.

[@rnlproductions2972]

I literally bought this as soon as I heard you power it up 😂

[@jackgirskis]

Upgrades I’ll be doing on mine Alice fram Lights and sound upgrade from frank and geek when it’s out New stickers New wooden motherboard if anyone has tips or suggestions please do comment

[@joecamel1079]

I ordered mine Wednesday n got it on Saturday and I'm very happy it unlike my ol lady giving me a tongue lashing on why would u spend that much on a toy? I said look women I don't tell u anything about your fetish on buying all the Dunkin donuts and Starbucks cups and thanks to PayPal I'm only paying 22 bucks a month unlike u paying 25 dollars or more on each cup

[@derianhavard3406]

Hey Jason nice video im playing to buy this bad boy at at spirit halloween store later this year its a great time to be a Ghostbusters fan.

[@cosmojames]

I was iffy on the $250 price tag, but I have to say this video has changed my mind. I can see it being worth it.

[@reeganevans6707]

Definitely a true fact: Bill Murray wasn’t very pleased with how heavy the proton packs were. With a little bit of upgrading and fittings, he would totally enjoy this type of pack; onset for the upcoming sequel. 🚫

[@tunruh]

AND........SOLD OUT!!!! Damn why did the release come a week before payday!?!?!?

[@tomstestkitchen]

Great review, I'm sold. I wanted to see what it really looked like and I am impressed. I have the original version but I will now be upgradings. Thanks for the review.

[@ramonrendon2061]

Just snagged 2 of these in the 50% off November 1st sale!! Got both for $250

[@nerdloftgaming]

Stellar price and you got two 👍🏼

[@jasonloun]

i just bought yesterday the other version from 90$ ... the one from 250$ was already sold out ( kinda disappointed ) but i think i might modd if i received my order

[@OATS-zt8js]

First time purchaser of a proton pack here, but lifelong ghostbusters fan. I am loving this pack that arrived yesterday, so much and looking forward to shopping for a flight suit to go with it! 😆

[@coryfreemandesign7728]

I'm also a lifelong fan (I share a birth year with the first movie!) and will also be making this one my first pack. Cheers and congrats!

[@HelmetCowboy]

Same here! I just got mine today and I love it! I adjusted the straps so everything fits great but I'm thinking of buying an ALICE frame for it once there's videos on how to attach this pack to one.

[@cfreewi]

@@HelmetCowboy I was thinking about looking in to ALICE frames, too. My pack also just arrived yesterday and I feel like it's going to be kind of hot to wear with all of that foam on my back. The frame might help with that... in addition to making it more accurate, of course :)

[@Speems]

It really seems like the only faults are in the wand, I better get quick to get my hands on this to make this an incredible addition to my Hasbro neutrona wand

[@dukecast]

think we're gonna get 3 versions of a slime blower next? hey, I can dream right?

[@DarkTibbles]

Darn it i just bought the scaled down one like a month ago. The power on button and sound is worth it alone! I mean not really. But kinda....

[@nickrayer3776]

I already have hasbro wand and I can't wait to mod it to give an original sound board and maybe even the afterlife switch

[@bashcrash9148]

It’s worth it just for the V-hook upgrade honestly.

[@boritheband7765]

Awesome! I think I'll get this one to actually do events in and use my Hasbro one for display only

[@andrewmacgibbon4246]

Where on the pack do you put the batteries. I ordered one on Friday and mine already shipped. Really excited to get it.

[@GhostbustersNews]

Exact same as the previous pack, with a small compartment hidden in the foam motherboard.

[@thedoctor755]

Interesting. Not bad if you're starting off with nothing! If I wasn't already knee-deep in TWO mods of their previous pack, I'd be on it.

[@rolandohernandez4162]

Just bought it because of your review buddy, thanks!!!

[@nerdloftgaming]

Kudos to Spirit Halloween for listening to the fans. This pack looks great! If it weren't for my Haslab Proton Pack, THIS would be my go-to fullsize pack. Movie sounds, powers up from the wand, and it STAYS ON (come on Hasbro) - this is perfect for those that felt like they missed out. My modded scaled-down Spirit Halloween will hold a special place in my heart, haha but this new one, wow - wonderfully done 👏👏

[@stevenmazanet9933]

as soon as there is an Alice frame mod tutorial, please let me/us know!

[@NotThatGuy_YepThatGuy]

The wand lack of lights broke the deal for me. I'm not likely to mod, and it lacks a bit much. But I know this will be great for others and I'm happy they made it.

[@jugghead82]

Man this is MindBlowning Indeed when I was younger I dreamed of having a Pack like this Bro you are amazing with your Ghostbusters Content they should let you cameo in the next movie for real AWESOME Vid AS ALWAYS Jason

[@johnnyredd360]

Ok, that was fast And honestly I still can't believe this is a spirit pack 😳

[@TheVoid1221221]

I got mine, they did a great job with this pack!

[@cyberpunkholiday]

I was waiting for this. Thanks Jason!

[@ssikora3154]

I need to order that on the spirit Halloween store online of the proton pack for my Ghostbuster Halloween jumpsuit to for that proton pack, I need to order that soon

[@LosAngelesCatfish]

Mine just arrived…. I’m totally stoked. Thanks JASON

[@PackingProtons]

I would love just the pack, and upgrade my wand with a throwing chicken version. would be nice to have something that doesn't fall apart or have stickers wear out :)

[@meldavechloee]

It’s almost my birthday Jason on may 18

[@GhostbustersNews]

Happy early birthday!

[@enything2000]

I can't wait to mod this into a Real Ghostbusters Proton Pack.

[@GhostbustersNews]

Having the same urge!

[@Lorenzo-fw3gx]

“Get this, the lights, they stay on” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@estebanbeneroescoto1922]

Just checked, and it is now sold out. Thanks to Ghostbusters News, I was able to order one. Thank you for always keeping us informed about what's new and available!

[@WallThrow]

if only the on-switch was on the pack. Then I could swap out my spengler wand

[@Nerfherder219]

I'm definitely gonna get the new one. The upgrade from the old SH pack is absolutely wonderful. It may not be the Hasbro pack, but this is a fine substitute.

[@GhostbustersNews]

Totally!

[@SpaceWizardCosplay]

@@MR-theoneandonly J- The Haslab pack is far superior and with a little work, it can be converted to an '84 pack like I did with mine.

[@reallydumbforeal1]

@@SpaceWizardCosplay i love the elitist commenters lol. let us enjoy ourselves, please.

[@gejzatokar4253]

I wish I could have a proton pack ❤

[@ebwarg]

I’ll order one soon (maybe two, if a certain acquaintance can guarantee he’ll pay me back quickly), but I have some major bills coming up right now. Then, of course, I’ll probably have to wait for them to come back in stock…

[@knotfan8626]

Im truthfully so excited to get one

[@silversniper9992]

Already sold out 😢, any idea when they are coming back out with more?

[@GhostbustersNews]

Hoping soon, but no ETA currently.

[@Ghostybusters]

will this come back its out of stock?

[@piratepop7115]

Can’t afford it. The times

[@TheSeas721]

If I'm able to get this I'm taking my haslab neutrona wand and all my gbfans guts from my 80% pack and putting it in this. Switching all my resistors,my clippard, Alice frame ,elbows the whole 9. And making this my second pack after my Haslab one. Thanks for the great review of this new pack! 😁

[@michaelmcmahon8312]

I got mine and I absolutely love it

[@mrocc0888]

Just ordered mine!!! I can’t wait!!!

[@Idoskate]

The fact it isn’t available in germany pisses me so off

[@GhostbustersNews]

As a Canadian who's imported a crazy amount of US exclusive, totally agree! Would love for items such as this to be available worldwide, without any added hassle.

[@ElMoto_Mysterio]

I just purchased the spirit life size proton pack and I’m sure I’ll be swapping the spirit wand to the 84 Spengler haslab wand, great review btw 👍

[@boots2passes36]

Ordered mine the day I found out and it arrived before the weekend. I missed out on the Haslab pack, but this is a pretty nice consolation. Definitely seems to be some room for modding, but generally speaking, the 7-year-old-me is still over the moon over this!

[@trollnips9405]

Sweet, now we just need a new trap that uses a proper pedal. Definitely feels like this was Spirit showing some love to the GB community for making them so much money over the last 5 years.

[@Lorenzo-fw3gx]

I think for those of us who can’t get our hands on a custom pack, this will make a great base for modding with a bigger speaker and maybe better lights if needed. Jason, does the Hasbro wand fit the V-hook on the spirit pack??

[@GhostbustersNews]

It doesn't. The v-hook on the Spirit pack is slightly smaller.

[@ShinKyuubi]

I just got mine, I'm going as a Ghostbuster to a Halloween party this year (Provided my HasLab Two in the Box set arrives in time since I got to wait for that) Even though I got a bit of a belly the thing actually fits me when it comes to the belly strap...very few ACTUAL bags I've seen that have those work for me so the "One Size Fits Most" is actually accurate. It's a nice piece to get, especially if you couldn't get your hands on the HasLab version. My only issue is reholstering the wand but that's just gonna come down to practice, practice, PRACTICE...I got till October of this year to get good with it.

[@adamwalkervfx]

Might get one for Christmas

[@Wubbox18]

I just beated Ghostbusters, the video game remastered on professional the hardest mode

[@ChuckM0503]

For the price you really can't ask for much more. It's a great base for people to no doubt upgrade and mod to be more accurate. Also, I've said this many times before, but I keep waiting for someone to do a Real Ghostbusters pack. Considering Spirit put out those RGB costumes a few years back I'm surprised they haven't done it yet.

[@GhostbustersNews]

In every conversation we've ever had with companies such as Spirit or Halloween Costumes, we always ask about RGB gear! Hopefully, eventually, someone will pull the trigger!

[@DivineKnight_115]

Well considering Hasbro is never gonna release a proton pack for consumers other than the few they made, this is the best we can get for a good price.

[@omardiaz3557]

In fact, I have that but it's not a proton pack, it's a vacuum cleaner that is used like a backpack but also works for ghost hunting. you know, Luigi's mansion 😅

[@richieboon1119]

I think the upside down sticker on the wand is accurate to the screen used venkman pack. I’m not 100% sure

[@hayward5337]

Just bought mine tonight! Hopefully I’ll have it this week! Great review!

[@jimbear62]

Now I don't have to worry about traveling with my Haslab pack This is the one I'm takin' to Florida this Halloween!

[@Mister_pointy]

Excllent video my friend whole time screaming out why I’m so broke right now before summer conventions! 😅

[@RyanLec84]

Sorry, gotta keep it real here.. The lights and the way they sequence appropriately blow the Haslab packs out of the park...

[@strixsoren6847]

Already sold out. But I really hope that unlike the Haslab pack, this new Spirit pack will be restocked and mass produced.

[@alexanderheeren9056]

And as always...We European fans are not able to purchase this. I would like a spirit pack to you know...

[@QuinnGamer7YT]

Bro I’ve tried ordering for 4 days since i got the news and Spirits site has been all over the place, only showing the logo, bringing me to random products and being sold out for days. Through and through I’m still excited at the thought I could get one after seeing this

[@HelmetCowboy]

Hi Jason, is the no ghost patch that comes with the new proton pack the correct size? Looks a little small but I wanted to make sure before I go buying a different one if this one will work just fine, thanks!

[@mitchellclare2279]

I've recently ordered this proton pack but ever since it shipped to my house I've noticed weird things happening near me!?😮

[@logantrimble006]

Im glad i bought mine when i did. It was 90 bucks, I knew it would go up in value afterwards. A wise investment indeed.

[@Divewith.G.M_Official_Channel]

Do you know what I hate about the old Spirit Halloween proton pack is that when I had it the peg whenever it was connected it just easily fell out 11:44

[@jackjhonsen2780]

AHHHHH....CAN YOU DO A IN STORE VIDEO OF THE GHOSTBUSTERS SCENTION IN THE SPIRIT HALLOWEEN STORE ? THAT WOULD BE BUSTIN COOL DUDE ! DOES SPIRIT HALLOWEEN STORES ACTUALLY CARRY THEIR GHOSTBUSTERS PROPS FULL IN STOCK MAKE A VIDEO ON IT DUDE .

[@JREone]

Love the video ordered mine hope they send you a kickback, thanks for your videos and yes my ocd went full on Monk when I saw the decals... I have a full set of metal ones here to replace mine and going to mid this out.

[@Exar_Kun]

The patches remind of the ghostbusters jumpsuit I got as a kid when the second film came out. I LOVED AND LIVED in that thing for years until sadly out growing it. Still have it too and I’ve always chuckled at the “back off man ima ghostbuster” on the back lol.

[@GhostbustersNews]

Haha, got the same one still!

[@bonuzdukkz]

As much as it still some bit of inaccuracies on the pack itself. At least they are improving along with the size being near one to one. that, and it’s a cheaper alternative to the hasbro lab one that is really expensive

[@chaosxv1]

Just got it. Looks and works amazing. Also, perfect for mods

[@pacer1705]

I have a question. Where does one hang / install the Spirit's ghost trap on this life-size proton pack?

[@Demented-Jedi]

Watched this video the other day.. Sent my wife the link, and se said it looked cool so I took that as approval and ordered one. She's gonna kill me. lol

[@bsfishing7073]

That way cheaper then the last time you were talking about them 😅it was 500 bucks and it thought it was way too much for a toy

[@michaelhans4551]

Excellent review I had 10 questions you answered them all

[@GhostbustersFan77]

I ordered mine. Looks like it will be minimal modding on my part. Adding a light bare, a few switches, a ribbon Cable, and moving the speaker. I plan to reposition it in the N-filter and fill in the speaker holes.

[@davebaggerman894]

Mdf board, watch out carrying this in the rain.

[@hayward5337]

Mine arrives tomorrow! 🙌🏽

[@GhostbustersNews]

Enjoy! 😁

[@FishingwithTyBaker]

I heard the sticker that was upside down is screen accurate to Venkman’s proton pack.

[@GsMURDERFACE]

With all of the mods floating around, i really wanna know what it would take to reteofit the hasboro wand to this pack.

[@lego_mateo127]

Love this!! Might try to buy one sometime! Keep up the great work

[@brandonpierce5507]

Pretty cool, Proton pack looks like from the first two movies😊

[@AydenLepley-l1d]

Is it a online exclusive? Or will they be selling these in Spirit Halloween stores?
