OK gang, like the title says! I have pack, uniform and accessories, but I need inspiration for a creative way to display them. Pony up your pictures!

I have this on top of my computer rack:
And a GB display as well of extra props and items
I don't have any but how about a manikin with the costume on and pack then if you were interested you could commission a bust of one of the ghostbusters to replace the mannikin's head!

Not my full collection but here's a shot of my GB corner in my workshop from a few months back.
I made some GB replicas for a music video a while back.
here's the video link to see them in action. the trap opened with servos and the guns lit up and blinked.

Nice displays. I always like to see how others props are stored
protokev, I love the Louis Tully helmet and the display it sits on!
Man that's some nice collections. I hope to build a proton pack in the future.
wow you guys have some sick collections . I ran into a collector few years ago we did some trades. He told me they made some proton packs out of wood and Fiberglass but most are very FRAGILE and tend to break. I have seen them on ebay for as high as 3k .
I would like a light up with sound . Can you Busters reco me a seller or maker i can buy one from ?
Mine's a little out of date. I now have the Matty Collector trap and PKE meter under the pack.

i LOVE your slimer head! it looks like coming thru the wall! is the back lit? or are my eyes just being dumb?
Thanks! I'm pretty fond of the spud. Nope, your eyes don't deceive you! I wired up a few hyperbright green LEDs in the inside of the casting and used several small green acrylic rods to lift him about 1/4 an inch off the wall. It gives that nice 'phasing through the wall look' that I was aiming for.Goosebot 5000 said:

Kerr Avon - would it be too much trouble to show us the back of the mold and how you hung it. its a fantastic idea.
"I would like a light up with sound . Can you Busters reco me a seller or maker i can buy one from ?"
No one makes the packs on whole to sell. You can purchase the parts and there is the GBfan web site GBfans.com that has all the information to build your own pack.
Having built a couple packs in the last year, I figure currently you can build a nice high quality fiberglass pack with full lights and sound for about $ 800 in parts. Once you have all the parts assembled, I have popped my two packs together in less than two weeks with a few hours a day in working on them. Obviously it is easier once you have made them and are familiar with the parts needed and suppliers out there.
Two packs are hung up on my wall in my man cave.

Haven't mounted mine yet (it needs some repair work) but I plan on making a box on the wall kind of like the ones in hotels with the fire hose and have "In case of ghost break glass" written on it.
This is my sons pack we built together along with his gear:
This is a pack Outlander has lent me to use as a reference when we built our last two packs. We have used it as well to go out trooping several times as a three Ghostbuster team. It has the original ist generation Hyperdyne sound system and amplfier along with a very early on light system. It takes about 25 D and C cell batteries, the pack has a weight of about 45 pounds. My newer fiberglass shell packs weigh about 20 lbs, using 3AA, 2AAA and two 9Volt batteries.
Here's my meager GB collection. The Gozer doors is probably one of my favorites. I have a damn proton pack hanging on my wall and everyone always comments on the doors.
I'll try to get one tomorrow and see if I can post it. It's hideous looking inside because you'll see all the bondo I had to use to build up missing areas.kalissuperman said:
here is my small collection, largely in part from Tripoli, I thank you
Not really final displays but all the packs are mine ;-)
Maybe bag yourself a Vigo print?
Cool displays guys, while I have a full GB rig and gadgets, I have no where to display them so there packed away with all my props. I dont collect things I cant wear, so all my props are part of costumes that are boxed. My misses wouldnt let me display them around the house lol
Yeah, I have more costume pieces, but not displayed, along with an almost full size Vigo print
