    You’re not wrong Jason. My mom made me sell my “old toys” as a kid. Now, I’m buying all these old toys back to enjoy with my son.

    This is crazy. I got this for my birthday on this exact day Feb 26 when I was a kid. It might have been 1988-1989. Not exactly sure which year. I just remember playing with it so much the proton wand sound trigger wore out. So many good memories. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

    I still have mine, and the box, I remember getting it for Christmas and I totally lost it! I also got some RGB action figures. Thought it was the best Christmas ever! Fortunately I was able to hang on to all of them and still have them.

    I actually let my kids play with my old proton pack, along with some of the other cool ghostbusters-stuff. I guess in one way that’s just crazy, but it also gives me great joy to see them from enjoy the same kind of game my friends and I did. I’m very happy to still have those things and to be able to share it with the new generations.
    Thank you for sending us down memory lane, you sir are awesome!
    Cheers from Sweden, Kristoffer

    Surprised there was no mention of the pack also fitting the Ghost Trap on the Neutrona wand’s hook, but that can always be a future video!

    Wow, I had the Proton pack as a kid, it was awesome to own that back in the 80's. I lost my mind whenever I got one.

    @justjasonbeardenjokes 2 года назад +15

    I had the proton pack as a kid… BUT unfortunately at some point had modified it to look like the Rocketeer’s jet pack for a Halloween costume… well as good as one could anyway with the limited amount of resources I had and the fact that I had to wear it upside down lol. In hindsight being more of a ghostbusters fan and carrying that fandom into adulthood I wish I hadn’t have done that.

    I remember getting this toy for Christmas in 88. I was 4 and it went everywhere with me aside from daycare and church. So much so I remember my dad came in to wake me and my brother up because we were under a Tornado warning and he rushed us to the basement but not before I grabbed my pack.

  • @reddungeoneer2187

    Despite its simplicity it was a toy loved and desired in those years by fans of Ghostbusters... 😌
    The beauty was in developing one's imagination, simulate noises, imagine the lights of the stream! 👻🚫
    How many have created a proton pack by hand before receiving it as a gift? 😀

  • @VictoriasCantina
    @VictoriasCantina 2 года назад

    I still remember waking up to this on Christmas morning. I think it was 1988. It was sitting under the Christmas tree unwrapped, so I saw it right away and became so excited. I got so much play out of it and have fond memories of it. I still have some of the components but the stickers wore off. I'd love to own it again, and it would be awesome if Hasbro reissued it (and the trap) in the Retro series.

    @valdore5939 2 года назад +1

    Well, I didn't have an "official" pack, and wand when I was a kid. What I did have was one made out of styrofoam, cardboard, Coke bottle caps, and black electrical tape. A ton of electrical tape. And a wand with a flashlight inside. Add a cut down old boiler suit. I was good to go, and king of the school yard for the day. Y'know. Thinking back. Some of the best toys I had back then we're home made things. Proton packs, Lightsabers from red broom sticks, Autobot bases built from shoe boxes for the Decepticons to attack. Sigh. Thems were the days. Lol

    Oh this brings back memories. I got this in 88 or 89. I wanted to be a Ghostbuster too! But when I was told it wasn't a real profession wanted to be a fireman so I could pretend I was a Ghostbuster... stupid kid logic.
    My dog chewed on the middle antenna piece, another side broke off, the foam stream piece and the hose from the pack to the wand were lost so was the armband. And for some reason when I looked at the pack year later it seemed to have shrunk. Sill, I loved this toy in the 80s and early early 90s

    JASON love your chanel. I have a story. I visited my aut in Delaware from Puerto Rico and alwalys wanted the proton pack. Well they took me to Toysrus and somebody bougt it for me. Happiest day of my life and did a modification. The modofication was to attach stream confetti to it. I did that. I tell you they never imagine that. That for me where the beams from my proton pack😊

  • @charlesltk2099
    @charlesltk2099 2 года назад +2

    I had those when I was a kid, and I'm loving it, I wear them whenever I watch the episodes of RGB, always blast the ghosts on the screen (kinda sad that my armband and the top antenna of my PKE broke off easily)... Years later, it was kept in the storage room till my mom gave it away, (thought I'm too old or too big to wear or play it.... Bummer) sigh I wish I still have them....

      I salute you for all the ghost busting you've had done.
      As a recent fan of the Ghostbusters via a trip to the local cinema to watch the latest movie,I am hooked straight on and want to be a ghost buster too.
      How?
      Firstly I will collect the Hasbro and Kenner Ghostbusters gear, order 2 pedal cars, A blue battery powered beacon,the RGB McDonald's bicycle set x2. So that I could mod the pedal cars to look just like the ecto-1and ecto-1A. I do have a red battery powered beacon already soo I am off too a good start.
      Agree with me?

  • @russellj.s.257
    @russellj.s.257 2 года назад

    I always wanted that proton pack,I already had most of the figures,the Firehouse,Ecto 1,Ecto 1A,Ecto 2,the ghost popper and the ghost zapper. I wanted the proton pack but I was nine years old and my mother said no,I was too old and too big for it,I was disappointed I wanted it so bad. To my parents it was something I would out grow but in my mind it was an unlicensed nuclear execellerater.

  • @spankyjohn69
    @spankyjohn69 2 года назад +4

    Well this brings back memories I remember when I was three years old. I had a Ghostbuster finanza in 1988 I got the proton pack the pka the ghost trap and my dad got a flight suit with real patches and my last name on it I have like six patches. I wish I still have that flight suit. Because mine was a dark navy blue because you couldn't actually get the ones back then like that. So my dad found somebody that could get one and stitched everything in there then when my birthday. I got a tall surprise and it was the firehouse I've said it many times on here. We had a bad fire one year and it melted every single Ghostbuster Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Terminator 2 I lost a lot of things that I believe I would have kept going up it's hard to get the firehouse some people want $1,000 for that that's a joke I mean my extreme Ghostbusters ecto-1 is worth three hundred bucks and I didn't even know that mine still on the box I got that for my 29th birthday I still have it. If I could Don pack the firehouse ecto-1 and all the Ghostbuster toys and figurines I think I would pay for it that's probably going to be like almost $2,000. Don't want me to have their house fire I lost toys that were in pristine condition even the Star Wars ones that my brother gave me when he was a kid. It's funny 36 years old and I still feel like a kid. Life is short I say live fast die fun. Thank you for showing this video brings back happy memories.

    I also had this, cause back then you weren't cool unless you were Batman, Ninja Turtle or a Ghostbuster. ....Course during that time I did all three but that's not the point! I loved the hell out of this proton pack set. I wanna say I had this until the very late 90's after which this thing was so beaten up, stickers long gone, parts missing, that my folks just up and decided for me to throw it away with everything else I had collected from 84 to 99. Man was I bummed out about that.

  • @lewiscausey687
    @lewiscausey687 2 года назад +2

    Actually Jason, if you compare to the unreleased RGB opening it does look similar. I think they copied the design for the toy from that. Perhaps if you agree, you could do a comparison with image captures compared to the finalized packs in RGB that we know.

    Had the Kenner proton pack as a kid. It was good for what it was. I used to smack the shit out of my sister with the yellow pool noodle that went into the barrel of the neutrona wand while wearing the GB set up and pretending she was a ghost. Yeah, the noodle was taken away from me many of times by my parents.
