I'm hanging my fullsize pack on my closet door too, with metal towel door hangers from the dollar tree store. Two hangers for each pack. Feels plenty strong

Does if have easy access to the speakers and lights?Oh I hope someone makes something that easily fits into the compartment that'll let the pack play the theme song. Well, as long as it'd not require soldering...

It almost has a shiny side, could it be something else? What would be a good way to give it a permanent blackwash like on the real one?Watch this video from Ghostbusters News for the handgrip mod you’re looking to do:

I do like the idea of it looking like a belt gizmo or something. You called it bluetooth but does it need it to function? Like as long as you put an sd card in there with the song it'd just repeat it as long as you like?
And a sound file...
Video LINK for sounds: Poor man Proton Pack sounds
I can clip the pager to the Alice Frame or my belt. The Spengler wand has the rest of the sounds.
The loop is an hour. Then it plays the Ghostbusters theme song and repeats.

Not 100% one what alterations they did because I noticed that both straps have that big metal button snap, but the big tell tale sign is that the back of the shoulder strap pads have a line running down the middle of them which seems exclusive to Rothco.hawkbatsquadron wrote: ↑November 29th, 2021, 1:10 pmSo are we certain the Spengler Pack's Alice Frame IS the Rothco frame then?
The Rothco frame I got already has a green belt buckle.

That leaves us 1 week to get 2,000 backers to get the stand.Don't forget that the last few days of a Haslab see a big surge in backers. From overseas third parties to people caving after being on the fence. I don't care for the stand myself but I think it's quite likely we'll reach 15k. Maybe if we're lucky they'll announce a final stretch goal that's bitchin and we get something beyond the stand too.

I'm guessing it's just how the site counts backers. I'd wager we still do have the notebook or if not, we definitely will by the end of the day.

Only the Razor Crest has 5 Tiers.Ecto_1X wrote: ↑December 5th, 2021, 1:24 pm less than 2k to go to hit the final Tier!I'm hoping the final tier gets blown out of the water. I haven't paid much attention to Haslab projects. Have they ever added more stretch goals if something does really well?
VenomSymbiote wrote: ↑December 5th, 2021, 1:25 pmIf I understood it correctly the Haslab Star Wars Razor Crest originally had three tiers, and when it reached tier 3 with one week to go, two additional tiers were unveiled.Ecto_1X wrote: ↑December 5th, 2021, 1:24 pm less than 2k to go to hit the final Tier!I'm hoping the final tier gets blown out of the water.
