The day and life of a small collector of all things collectible.
I collect most things that are nostalgic to me when I was growing up in the 70s 80s and 90s
Star Wars, Thundercats, Astroboy, Terminator, Aliens, Marve, DC etc.
Please come in and have a look.
I hope you like what you see!

Yes 100% authentic.
Just needs a gearbox in that for opening and closing fun.
I actually reverse engineered the Walmart traps gearbox so I can 3d print out the assembly and drop it into a spirit trap and add a pedal and voila.
Look great! I was bored and reversed engineered the Walmart Rubies version's gear box they used. 3d print the case and actuator, along with some gears and the 5v motor and limit switches and re use the existing bomb bay door mechanism in the Spirit Trap and voila. Add a pedal and you have a remote opening trap. It just slides in as an assembly like the Rubie trap like it belongs there.
That's amazing! I was planning to do the whole thing... Then Haslab launched their trap and PKE campaign.... Saves me some time and effort hahaha! Phew! Although it's probably not gonna be as trick as yours 😎
@SquadCollector I ordered the haslab combo as well. But for all the spirit traps out there, a quick effortless upgrade. Got an email? I'll send you the link(s) to the pictures and video of the prototype working flawlessly.
@@tomc8157 If it's that easy then hell yes sign me up hahaha. [email protected] I really appreciate this!
Any suggestions how to split into one of the JST connections on the ninja tunes board to power a few low lowered LEDS? prefer it to come on with the pack and not have several battery packs scattered around.
I would split the power from the relay that powers the cyclotron cake lights. That will provide 5V. I have it powering cake lights and the panel leds without issues. It could definitely power a lot more.
Just add a gear box and a foot pedal, and you'll have a nice functioning trap.
Did you hear about Ramen Toys CAG set for the 89 Batmobile? It comes with matte canopy that has more accurate tinted windows and the roof slant that the stock one disnt have. It also included 2 guns that just pop on the car along with w gas tank caps. Once I made the change I was blown away at how much better it looked. Like it was right from the movie.
OMG I did not! just looked it up and it's AMAZING! Putting my order in now! This is a game changer... I put mine away till I had time to work on it/ modify it. Thanks for this! And Thanks for watching!
No lights on this mini-pack pretty much sums up the movie. In other words Disappointing
Yup you nailed it! Hope they make a GB1, 2, 3, 4 proton pack.
Hermoso como luce, una verdadera maravilla!
Holy cow very nice 😅
Thank You!!! 🙏🙏🙏
First ever 'uncrating' video!
HAhaha maybe I exaggerated a little.... The giant box and the pallet gave me a little shell shock!
In fairness, I imagine Robert Downey Jr. is a fair bit smaller than you... so life size still works.
hahahaha You always know how to make me feel better! I appreciate you! 👊👊👊
@@SquadCollector Ditto, my sticky friend!👊👊👊
Holy expiative!
Does the white hat light still blink in over heat after you took the old LED out ?
Looks good can't wait to install mine i relocated the two power switches to the motherboard right beside me so I don't need someone else to turn on the pack for me😂😂😂 i don't know why my pack doesn't work now everything is plugged in and running it off a usb do you know where i can get a OEM replacement main board ?
That's super smart! I think I need to do that as well!
The diamond Cartier x Disney fan is so slay
This is proffie or asteria v2.5
Asteria. Thanks for watching!
Looks good hopefully ill be getting my afterlife "heatsink" soon
So doing these hat lights on your wand, does that play some sort of weird effect to a ninjatunes board when it comes to voltage? I’ve seen a few vids of people doing exactly what you are but find that their wands work for a short period of time and after that everything starts failing! The pack begins to not recognize that there is a wand attached or parts of the wand no longer function etc? Are you running a ninja tunes board or GPStar or stock board?
I'm running NINJA TUNES. Zero issues. Still going strong. I can think that using higher voltage LEDS (People are switching them all to 5v.... Which I can see it causing problems.
Has anyone done a fruitto wand keep alive and fruitto bar segment ,im having difficulties, ive followed all the instructions but ,its still not working please HELP
I've done both. They work flawlessly. Make sure you're soldering clean without shorting any connections. Make sure all your wires are int he correct positions and no stray strands are shorting to other connections.
Im so late to the party on this line. Looks like they have only 3 releases for it so far, Wolverine, Cyclops, Magneto right? What do you think overall of the portrait sculpt? The face doesnt look off? Nor the positioning of the neck/head in general?
You have 4 others but you don’t open this one?? lol all good I get it
My daughter got a hold of one so she opened it 😅 lol!
Got that one a while back... when I look at it, I think "What would 14 year old me think' and I smile. OH! And do NOT pull up the flaps on the legs there (7:55)... The legs do extend, but the flaps there snap right off is you try to move them!
Thanks for the heads up... after looking closely I did realize there was no adjustment there hahah. Phew dodged some heartache there!
I see bad reviews about pure arts, makes me iffy on ordering a T-1000.
So you will no be using the two external speakers anymore on the new motherboard?
I will... but just for the wand.... I need to find time to get the 3.5mm jack installed.
@@SquadCollector ok thank you I thought maybe you would, have a great day 😊
STILL HAVE NOT CORRECTED THE WINDSHIELD!! IT'S NOT FLAT BUT IS CREASED/PYRAMIDAL SHAPED!! STILL HAVE NOT CORRECTED LACK OF STEERING AND SHOCK ABSORBER DETAIL AT FRONT END. STILL HAVE NOT NARROWED AND RECONTURED REAR TIRES. OTHER THAN THAT ITS PERFECT.
Where did you get the metal spacer thingy? Does it come with the purchase?
They just created these. If you have an issue with your alice frame spacing just send a photo to 12th Floor showing the issue and they will get one of these out to ya.
Hi do u think that the redmanoverlay is mush easy to install ?
I personally think the Redman is more involved and needs a more precise install. 12th Floor with the heavy-duty clips and elongated holes helps with ease of installation and adjustability. In the end you really can't go wrong with either.
Great thank you as always your videos are educational
Hey have u ever changed out the volume nob can't seem to get the ones I have off and wondering if there's a trick I'm missing
I haven't yet. I figured it was pretty good already and didn't want to chance breaking anything since it actually does something.
Does the pack stand on it's own without the stand now the Alice frame sits lower?
It ALMOST does.... it's just a tad top heavy (That upgraded speaker) and makes it just tilt back enough to fall over :(
Such an incredible piece. And still the best representation of Carnage in statue form out there in my opinion.
I couldn't agree more! I just bought the Sideshow latest and greatest Carnage and I will prefer the Kotobukiya!
I got mine ordered hopefully it gets here quickly. I've had an alice frame fail where it was drilled before with my spirit pack. I've put SO MUCH work and money into my haslab pack that I absolutely do not want to use that method to attach it. Retraining the halab mounting system is what sold me on it. My friend is in the 501st, and we talked about how Mandos almost never use the screen accurate mounting system for their jetpacks because they want something more robust. Completely how I feel about my pack.
Depending where they are on their run of making the motherboards you should get it fairly quickly. Their shipping is quite fast and I got the 2 of mine (ordered at different times) ahead of schedule. My pack isn't close to screen accurate anyways. It's my own personal preference accurate hahaha. Robust and longevity is my end goals.
@@SquadCollector I'm going accurate where I can but the mounting system is somewhere you're never gonna see for one, and it's something that I need to function for two. If a pack breaks on set, it's fine they have another. If MINE drops off the alice frame, it's over with.
@@Doctors_TARDIS I feel you man! If my haslab pack broke my heart will break with it :(
Loved your video and your pack! I love all you have done to it. Where did you get the bellows/shockmont? I would love to add that to mine.
Bellow was purchased from ETSY. www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1120206298/ghostbusters-proton-pack-metal-bellows?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=proton+pack+bellow&ref=sr_gallery-1-37&sca=1&content_source=52e8be3a1bc5b3072da3a3615f7e6914075eae41%253A1120206298&search_preloaded_img=1&organic_search_click=1 I helped him figure out how to get them to work with Haslab packs. Be warned it takes ages to arrive from Italy and it adds over a pound ot yoru pack hahaha!
@@SquadCollector Thank you so much!!
I ordered one from Red Man a year ago. It was the first round, and I guess they didn't have the exchange rate/shipping figured, because 2 days later the price shot up to double. Got in under the wire, right? Nope. They held up shipping of my board for 8 months, and when I sent an email asking if it would be shipped by October, they decided to just cancel my order. This one seems just as expensive, but might have to go for it. I just do not trust those tiny little screw posts when I've added so much weight to the pack over time. Gah... pricey one, but I will likely just bite the bullet there. No one else makes a reasonable one!
Oh, it's half the price? Sold.
That's crazy! I guess all these companies have their horror stories... Just sucks to be the one on the receiving end. I feel for you brother!
RIGHT?! Very competitive!
Hi Just a quick update. We have 5 left on this run. Many thanks Mark 12th Floor Movie Props
Going to try the speaker your rocking. Using your link ty
DO IT! It's such a great upgrade!
@@SquadCollector it's otw!! Just installed the Wasteland industries m/Ninja tunes smoke kit and going to try the frutto vent leds next I think 🤔 as much as I don't want to open up the wand again.
I love this and want to give this a shot. Ive recently got my hands on a haslab pack and been doing little free mods for the last few weeks. This would be a great next project. Im confused about the switch part though. I havent been in there yet.
Whats the other thing youve soldered onto the speaker?
It's just a JST connector for a AUX externally mounted bluetooth speaker
Hi will you be doing a video on adding a motherboard to the Hasbro proton pack and any information on what one to purchase that will fit correctly ? Thank you for your help. 😁
Hey Paul. Hope things are good with you! I just added a video (Just for you hahaha) 🥰
Had no problem with the installation, the bar graph is working as described, lots of wires 😮 Good luck I know you will get it done 😁
Hi my friend! Hope you are well! Yes I thought I was going crazy. It's because the new board isn't compatible with my first general bargraph. They are sending me one tha tis compatible. Super good customer service!
Ugh I was going to replace this same board. Now idk if I want to? LoL FYI finally got my ninja tunes kit!!!! Absolutely love it!!!
Do it it will be worth it. I just was an early adopter and got the very first version of the bargraph that isn't compatible with the new board. CONGRATS ON NinjaTunes!!! WOOHOOOO!
Glad to read you're getting it sorted.... can't wait to see it working at 100%. And just in time to work up my GB obsession right before Ghostbusters Day (and maybe get a nice haslab update on the trap and pke)!
Yeah just like you said.... Their CS is top notch! Phew... I thought I was going crazy.
I really like the knobs are they from Gb fans? Are they easy to install?
Very easy to install. I believe I have some videos for that on my channel. They are from BOK... If you order from GB Fans it'll take FOREVER to recieve.
Thank you
Sorry about that! I think it is very likely that you have the version 1 of the bargraph (no issue number). Only around 2% of the kits shipped with that bargraph, and then it was changed to v2.0. Anyone with v2.0 or the v3.0 (black) shouldn't have that issue. If that is your case, please let me know and I'll send you a new bargraph free of charge in the next shipment tomorrow.
Ugh I hope I don't run into thus issue as well...
@@joelbeckley7924 I'm not sure if you bought the standalone bargraph from us before? This only affects less than 10 customers that bought the standalone bargraph a long time ago, so most people won't have that issue.
Only 10? Man talk about me being unlucky hahahaha! Thank you for making it right! Works AMAZINGLY now!
Oh, yeah.. that won't do. The Frutto guy's pretty cool, I'm sure he'll get this sorted for ya.
Yeah I've tried everything. I'm pretty sure I was sent a faulty board. I've contacted them and will show them this video and the video of the install (Uploading now) and see what they say.
Thanks for the great review. By any chance, could you share the width, depth, height dimensions of it. I can't find them complete anywhere online. You have mage want to pull the trigger on it. Thank you.
Yep. I'm not brave enough for this.
Ive just done this and it worked ,next minute I do the fruttio keep alive and now I think ive screwed the whole lot up ,im going to remove the keep alive and take it back to factory FML 6 days before Comicon FARK..😢😢😢
@@Guncage81 For a second I thought you meant the frutto pack keep alive and I was very confused as how you would mess that up.
No it's the wand keep alive ,ive got a Ninjatunes board
I would love to do this but man the idea of opening the wand TERRIFES me
It's not as bad as it seems! You got this!
Its Themyscira bro
Ive had my Ninjatunes board for a year now and love it,im finally putting in a C&A props smoke kit ,should be here any day now ,and a wand keepalive with the upgraded bar graphics to go in I had a wastelands vent kit ,but its coming out after watching your video ,with that said i dont remember having to change the connector to the three wire plug for the cake light/strobe plug. Fun times ahead next when i opener her up. I run an external talent cell so i can unplug and charge it without having a kill switch ,ive also worked out if you have it playing in jukebox mode once started you can flick the main red switch back across and then if you turn the talentcell off /on it will then fire up the start up sequence.
Were you able to get the plastic from under the seat? If so how? I have the same issue and don’t want to break it trying to move it!
Yes.... There is no trick.. You just need to go slow and jiggle/slide the seat back and forth. Eventually it'll come out... I have no doubt there is still some hiding under there somewhere hahaha! GOOD LUCK! I believe in you!
Oh man! Lol I’m scared!!!
@@SquadCollector got it!!! Man they really need to figure out a different method of going there…. Phew!
@@bodybuildingbrian YEEEEESSSSSS! Now wipe off the sweat and enjoy!!!!
@SquadCollector Is this Ninja Tunes “Replacement Electronic Board”? I’m asking because his order form says that it will not work with a keepalive wand board… but I say in your other video that it IS compatible… appreciate any feedback on my question. Thank you!
I installed the newer GhostLabs42 keep alive board that you solder inside the wand…
It works with both old and new ghostlab42 wand keep alives
