So our son finally decided he wanted to be a Ghostbuster for Halloween. For some this may not be a big deal, but the geek in us was ecstatic. My fiance owns a Halloween store locally, so we were able to procure a GB style flight suit. However the pack that it came with was inflatable and HUGE on him.
The fact that it was huge on him and that he likes to wear his costumes ALL the time, the fiance mentioned we should make him a somewhat better pack. So we searched, and searched and found quite a few child size pack builds on here. We drew our inspiration from the $15 pack build thread, but as I got more into the build, I decided to go a more detailed route. We were planning on finishing it this week because he will be going to Spooky Empire with us this weekend. He is hoping to meet a "Real Ghostbuster". So if anyone on here is part of the local Ghostbusters that will be in attendance, be on the lookout for a new recruit.
This is what we have done so far, he will have a pack with lights, ecto goggles, and a light up PKE meter. We still have some painting and detail work to do, but it is almost done. The fiance even went as far as making up a name badge for him. He decided to use his first name instead of his last in case any of the purists were offended.
