Hasbro Pulse HasLab Ghostbusters Plasma Series Proton Pack UNBOXING 

It's actually pretty simple when you think about it. The proton gun has a master power switch that connects the circuit or disconnects it from the battery. It would be easy to program a chip that senses that connection and reacts by powering up the pack and gun.

And if something annoys you. A little mod will do the trick.

I also scratch-built my first pack back in 2015. I still have it with my first modified Hasbro Neutrona Wand. I'm super impressed that the neutrona wand will turn the pack on and off within that 5 minute time linit. They didn't have to go that far, but they did. I honestly can't wait for March so we can start tinkering and modifying the pack, since it is modular.

@@SpaceWizardCosplay I can't wait to mod it and do improvements. I'm sure so.e really smart people in the GB community will have add on boards to fix all the missing features and add full interaction.

@@SW0000A GBFans' shop already has a sound board and light kits that do this for packs, including color changing cyclotron/neutrona wand lights and sounds for the 2009 video game. I did have an Afterlife switch on my wife's 3D printed proton pack before I got the GBFans' neutrona wand wiring and light kit. With how the neutrona wand now controlled the off and on of the pack, that Afterlife switch started a weird loop so I had to disconnect it.

You could always try the Spirit Halloween ones, or use them as a base for your own custom ones. They're not expensive and worth checking out.

@@Number-6 my 8 year old has everything the Spirit of Halloween sells. They are solid, but sometimes, dad just needs to flex lol.

@@drewyanuszeski7931 I completely get you, my friend, and it's too bad I missed out on the Matty stuff when it was available!

I'm so ready. I had guy build a screen accurate working PKE meters and a trap, plus I have nicer pair of ecto-goggles than SOH.

I was amazed about how many people were complaining about it, it’s like they’ve never had their phone on vibrate before.

Watch teh video and you may find out. ;)

It kinda has to be strong for you to feel it on your back, especially with the Alice frame! It just sounds really strong because its rattling the plastic stand :)

Agreed, I was hoping for something like a haslab ghost trap

@@Horace_Dragon worst case scenario, let the vibration motor off.

@@Horace_Dragon It's from the stand. I've lit up my Neutrona Wand on its own stand, once or twice, and produced the same sound.

@@ct0760 I myself was hoping for a PKE Taser.

@@raptor4239 oh they'll fix that. Chill out hater. How old are you? 14?

@@raptor4239 hm.

@@raptor4239 you’re is kicking himself right now aren’t you. SALTY!

@@raptor4239 that's the vibration from most likely the bumper not being fully secured and it sitting on the stand, still not a dealbreaker for the price.

@@raptor4239 You don’t have to have rumble turned on.😎

if they made that it probably would be a $400 haslab campaign (have you SEEN the ghostrider hotrod there trying to sell right now?)

Trying to figure out why we don’t even have a Slimer figure in that line. Feel like they’re done with that brand. So many other figures we could of gotten by now if they were actually interested.

@@floydforthought9998 i mean the GB option in selfie series shows that there keeping the brand around for a bit, maybe they just put the ghosts on the backburner in order to rush that afterlife wave (though yes GB is an afterthought to them compared to marvel/starwars)

@@floydforthought9998 agreed, they haven’t even revealed any new figures for over a year now. I’m assuming they’ll release another wave based on GB4 when that comes out. But we need a wave of ghosts

@@shugghead8538 my point exactly.

You can’t order it in spring, 2023. This was a HasLab crowd funded project. Only those people who ordered one at the end of 2021 will get one. This won’t be available to buy as a purchase from Hasbro.

Disposable funds may be a good thing... sometimes.

@@raptor4239 , wait, you wasted your time making unwanted comments?

@@raptor4239 haha the austim runs strong in you

​@@raptor4239 It was the vibration against the stand you single celled, mouth breather.

Ghostbusters is a family affair, yay!

No, it's there. Just isn't colored like it usually is. Check at 8:54.

All of the "Afterlife" parts are modular. Like someone else mentioned, the ion arm is most likely modular for shipping reasons.

There's an '84 *and* Afterlife mode. Just throw a switch.

Just remove a couple of the extemporaneous hoses, change the stickers, maybe a little paint job, throw the switch for 1984 mode and voila, 1984 pack!!!

@@TyKix that is what I thought also. Wearing it you won't hear the vibration.

I have 2 wands. One went on my modded Rubys/ SOH pack. The 2nd one is going on the Afterlife pack.

Based on my limited understanding of electronics and assumption on how they achieved pack shutdown from the wand, I doubt there will be any headway on the points you make. The pack just probably monitors power consumption to sense wand shutdown. When it drops bellow a certain level for a few mommetns it recognizes the wand is off and kills its own electronics within. Also, I'm not sure where I read this but you only have a limited window to re-energize the pack from the wand after remote shutdown. If this is true that whomps a couple couple of your desired features. Previously I theorized that (being there are no communication points within the wand handle) the only way they could detect mode changes would be through some means to detect the sound of the change unless each mode draws a very very distinct amount of amperage from its power source. Same with it recognizing overheat. This is super doubtful so as much as I think it's a short to not include mode changes or overheat in the pack itself, be ause of this and the fact that they weren't in afterlife we will likely just have to accept then as a fun Easter eggs for the wand alone.

@@NotThatGuy_YepThatGuy Yeah, I’m sure there’s little, if any, additional interaction, and obviously the people whose job is to promote the item aren’t likely to show off what it *can’t* do, but I’m still curious, and already planning what to test when I finally get mine.

I wanted to be the green ranger when i was a kid so i got a helmet from the people who actually make the helmets for the show, and also got a green ranger morpher. Now I just need this proton pack to fulfill my final childhood dream of being a ghostbuster! Can't believe its shipping soon! good luck man hoping they'll do other proton packs for you in the future, unfortunately they don't make anymore after the funding window closes with haslab funded products.

@@TyKix yeah I figured that's what it was. Probably why the dude had it turned off to begin with.

Say that when you have it on your back.

how much did it cost?

@@danjones6702 399 or 499 i believe

Would there be a way to get one in the future? I just discovered this pack. And am wondering if I’d be able to buy one in the future.

@@BigOSnackary probably off ebay, these campaigns are usually one time events.

A good idea. Though, unnecessary.

Newer hose material can be stiff. It may only need a lot of movement to loosen it up. It *is* a toy, after all. Easily rectifiable.

@@TehAnKorage it is. And hopefully it does loosen up a bit. Worst case scenario, I'm sure there are ways to modify it. That's one thing the GB prop community is EXTREMELY good at. 😁

I just had the thought hit me to get my own and in channel colors.

Pretty easy for that one. I'm not very handy at all and even I was able to make one myself. I bought a khaki flight suit off Amazon, bought some custom patches on ebay, bought some accessories such as the pads, hoses, dyed grey webbed military belt and BAM Ghostbusters flight suit!!! And if you want to go with the original GB1 design for the leg hose, here's a tip: boil a clear vinyl hose in water with turmeric and it'll make the hose nice and yellow.

Sorry man, these aren’t for sale anymore. You had to back it as part of the haslab pre sale. Haslab doesn’t release these for sale after the pre sale. Your only chance would be the secondary market once they are released ie- eBay. Which will be much pricier.

@@Kevin-qj4yz Correct. You will pay 2X or more for one on ebay or from a private seller. I had to convince my wife of this lol. It was back it then, or dont get one!!

@@TheJustinc23 Ya, I feel bad cuz so many people prob just were unaware of the Haslab at the time and now see it thinking they can just buy it off the shelf. :(

@@Kevin-qj4yz I actually saw it from this one youtuber who got an early build of this pack, and he asked them when it will be hitting store shelves. I guess he was misinformed as well, cause that's how I was.

Ah you never know! I mean if it hit store shelves it would for sure sell. Fingers crossed for you, I feel your excitement for this. 👍

Definitely! I'm gonna get it and make it into an original spengler 1984 pack

I was blown away when they revealed the price and bought it immediately when it was revealed.

Everybody at the other Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed group is eviscerating you for kicking people without warning and blocking posts about the game. You created a community because of your cancel culture tactics. Thank you.

​@@ericschilling9064

Are you gonna sell one on ebay? I really want one and unfortunately I didn't have the money at the time to back it anyways just a question if your selling one

Same here. One to "convert" into the 1984 pack and one as is.

@@thatgeekoliver I’m sorry, Their both going to be used. I’d try big bad toy store when they finally drop.

All that's been said is its powerd by "D" Batteries Don't know how many

They did? It's going to be powered by 4 D Cell batteries (could be more but it's D Cell batteries)

@@rizz0995 yep I remember them mentioning the battery in the adam savage video on the pack

4 D batteries. It’s on the video Adam Savage did on this Pack…

If you didn't see it in the films, first...

I'm still hoping, but for how I figure they allow for remote shutdown (monitoring power consumption in the wand) and that there are no noticeable communication connections in thr wand.... I'm doubtful

Hasbro announced during the crowdfunding project that its a one and done deal. So sorry, that won't be happening.

I wasn't the only one who noticed. 😆

That was most likely caused by the bumper not being fully secured, that it was sitting on the stand, or a combination of both. Still no where near a dealbreaker for the price.

It was sitting on the stand and on a table that amplified the reverberation. And, as munchxing says, the bumper wasn't fully secured.

Slime is for Premium Pulse members. I assume they didn't show them to avoid confusion for those who aren't members? Just a guess.

@@GhostbustersNews i hope so that would make sense

I luckly have a the wand before they had to put the orange tip on them

I think the update may have been them having switched the tip to the "It's a toy" orange thing. I will be wrapping that up with tin foil, for sure.

Or.. it's an update in the electronics to control the pack 🤔

I just hope those with the original thrower don't get screwed out of functionality.

@@Number-6 - The original neutrona wands without the orange "safety tip" will work with the pack.

@@SpaceWizardCosplay I sure hope so, you know?

You can always solder a jack on to the speaker wires and run a line to a secondary amp/speaker.

@@SW0000A I'm not that handy, but I could try
