Jason, when I was a kid and played Ghostbusters, I'd put the ghost in the middle part of the doors, and slam my foot down. It would cause the ghost to flip in the air and land inside the trap (provided I kept the door open) I thought I was a pretty cool kid for coming up with that, lol Thanks for the memories dude!
Hey Jason, those plastic tabs that broke from your trap that you called a type of heat sink are simply a bracket to hold the pedal cord when you wind it up around the trap.
Fifteen years ago I scoured eBay and purchased this, the Proton Pack and as many Real Ghostbusters toys (mostly NIB!) for my now adult children, who were obsessed with Ghostbusters and the cartoon. Still have most of what we bought stored in the garage today!
I used to think those two clipper thingies clipped on to the pack as a kid and I can't remember if at the bottom of the pack or at the top of the pack somewhere on there there should be a counterpart the clips onto the trap
I always wanted the Pack, Trap, and PKE Meter as a kid! While we were, umm, poor, I was fortunate enough to have Peter and Egon, fright feature Winston and Ray, and Ecto-1. I made my firehouse and PKE Meter out of a cardboard box lol.
Not so long ago I managed to recreate the proton block. I spent six months creating a cyclotron and made many other details (I am 12 years old and I know physics well).
There’s a mechanism inside the trap that opens the trap. If that’s the case for you, there’s a 3d printer file on thingyverse so that you can print a new one.
I remember getting this toy….. I had it a little over a year before the handle broke and later the tube became unattached from both the peddle and the trap. Turns out this was a normal problem since the trap was one of the last toys Kenner made outside of the action figures and the quality was poor.
After all these years I never knew about the belt clip! Wow. I used to have the trap, and I remember taking it with me to a medical office because my grandma had an appointment and it was fun to play with while I waited. Some man walked by and stepped on the handle and it broke. I've never quite gotten over it.
That was one of my favorite toys ever- I still have parts of it but its mostly toast. It looks like that handle was glued on- My handle totally broke off.
while we've definitely come a long way in terms of Ghostbusters ''prop'' toys, the Kenner stuff still definitely packs a punch. here's hoping they rerelease the trap and proton pack someday!
If you did have friends come round you could playout that movie scene where they trap Slimer, just don't ruin your mum's kitchen or break her table. "The flowers are still standing" lol 😂👻🚫 I wanted that trap but never got it, I did have the other one, the one where you could talk through it. If you remember that one?
Ah brilliant. I had this as a kid and broke the same parts. I also thought it would be a good idea to pin all my badges to the tubing. Years later it became my first buy from ebay back when eBay was new.
I had the trap that was sort of like a voice changer, where you talk into the pedal and it comes out of the trap itself. Until of course one day my best friend came over, saw it and stomped on the pedal rendering it useless. But we were like four years old so I didn’t hate him forever. Maybe.
I don't know about anyone else, the handle broke on me twice. Even after glueing it back together. I noticed a bit of glue marks around the handle on here too.

Lol you werent the only one
@@shaiq-nbaiq1826 Awesome, love hearing this! We ain't afraid of no ghosts!
@@MnemonicSyntax yeah unfortunately the yellow tube pulled out of my trap...i was a bit rough with it
I had the opposite: Ghost Trap but no Proton Pack. Reeeeaaally wanted it.
I had the whole set the proton pack the trap and PKE meter best toys I ever had wish I still had them

I am a big fan of Ghostbusters
I had so much fun with this toy when I was a kid 😍
I recently restored a Kenner Trap and gave it to my best friend and Fellow Ghostbusters fan as a Birthday gift.

My cousin and I caught so many ghosts with that thing…….we filled our containment unit like 3 times. Pecker helped us empty it a few times as well.
I just have a flashback of me playing with this one and a blaster with wavy foam at the tip. Damn I loved these.

Missed opportunity to say "we saw we came we kicked his ass" at the end 😂
I used to LOVE hooking this on to my proton pack just to run around the house 😄
man those were my favorite toys when i was a kid
My handle broke off multiple times to be continually and crudely repaired by super glue. Don't give 6 year olds super glue.
Both that and the proton pack toy made my childhood. Literally it helped me not be afraid of the dark.
at 4:27 how many takes did you do for that part?
Certainly a few!
I love every single ghostbusters shirt you own

Between this video and the proton pack I've got so many forgotten memories from childhood bubbling up.
Hey Jason gotta say your collection of ghostbusters shirts never fails to amaze me keep up the awesome work
I wish I still had all of my old toys! Would be saving a lot more money now a days!
Nice shirt nice phrases man I'm gonna call u the king of Ghostbusters.Good show thx for everything.Folks be safe & blessed take care.
The yellow tubing eventually pulled out from the trap. I was a bit rough with it so watching hold by the tube makes me cringe a bit.
Whenever GB News uploads a new video it makes my day 100000 time better
Thank you for that! Means a lot!

The Ghost Trap is my favorite ghostbuster gear. i don't know why.

I remember my trap the yellow cord broke on like day one but I still used it for most of my childhood.
I wish Hasbro would remake the ghost trap for their classic real ghostbuster remake collection
That was one of my favorite toys ever- I still have parts of it but its mostly toast. It looks like that handle was glued on- My handle totally broke off.

I had the same thing as a kid! It was fun.

I wanted that trap but never got it, I did have the other one, the one where you could talk through it. If you remember that one?
I have to see if I can find mine. Also the trap attaches to the pack as well.
Ive still got mine from when I was a kid
Ah brilliant. I had this as a kid and broke the same parts. I also thought it would be a good idea to pin all my badges to the tubing. Years later it became my first buy from ebay back when eBay was new.
I bought the original proton pack and trap for my 4 year old son..he loves it
Can it really make green smelly smoke, like on the thumbnail?
Just from the video itself it seems like it's in great condition, I bet it's way better in person
My friend had the trap we used to play Ghostbusters all the time,
As a kid I Love the real Ghostbusters toys and I am glad that there returning by Hasbro

I have one and it works awesome reveiw
ghost trap glows in the dark i belive
You gotta do the ghost spooker next, I thought toy was awesome when I had it as a kid
I love you're videos
Love getting out of school to watch this guy
I convinced my best friends mom to buy this for me when we were at the store once, my mom was so mad when she found out. Still have it though!
My son has the ghost trap, but is the mini ghost trap?

I don't know about anyone else, the handle broke on me twice. Even after glueing it back together. I noticed a bit of glue marks around the handle on here too.
i had the gb jumpsuit pke meter and proton pack minus the ghost trap
I wanted that too,but again my mother felt I was getting too old.
Where do we get it?
I wanted that trap so bad but i remember my mom saying i had enough Ghostbusters toys and that the trap was too expensive, i never got it )-: .
I’m getting a ghost trap👻
Up date got one
I had the pack as a kid but never the trap.
They need to re-release this.
Hit a Glow in the Dark item with a UV Flashlight for short time and it will Glow Brighter .
i loved my trap, but i was so mad the doors were white and black.
