Back in March Anovos Productions LLC teased their proton pack replica (GBI Blog Post, March 14, 2016) was coming soon. Yesterday around dinner time most ghostheads received Anovos’ Ghostbusters newsletter announcing their Proton Pack Kit.
Yes, just a kit. Do you think we’d allow just anyone to build a Proton Pack with thoughts of making it actually functional? We’re not going to risk going out of business…again.
Designed in 1984 by Egon Spengler and Ray Stantz, (we think Dr, Venkman watched – Rich) the nuclear powered Proton Pack counters the negative energy of ghosts with a proton stream of positively charged ions.
