Thanks! BTW, there's a atlantis themed lego set being released next year that would make a servicable smaller gozer style playest. Not sure if its been mentioned here, but Lego also rereleased a firehouse playset as well.. not cheap though.. $150

I did pick up leds lights for the ecto model today.. its a toss up if I start that, or full scale ghost traps or gigameters for our uniforms next though.. Oh, and about the mister idea... Have you seen how much water gets all over the place with those? A fogger would be nice, but the get the fog that sinks, you need to add a chiller to them, so you end up with a 4 foot square space required for a fogger and a foam cooler to act as a chiller. I might that add some cotten sheets pulled apart some to simulate fog, and put a ulti flashing led light string under it for some eerie lighting effects.

WoW! Thanks for all the praise, guys! It has a place to live.. where it is (for now, since it fits in with our halloween decorating. After that, it'll get a place of honor where our proton packs are hanging. I'll either move the table there, or pout a shelf above the packs.. though if its that high up, we really wont' be able to appreciate it as much. I actually DO have a halloween fog machine with plenty of juice, and have a BUNCH of small flashing led things I've been picking up for various projects. I just got in the old polar lights snap model of the ecto 1. (Here is someone else's pic for scale.) It will be added soon.. and I'm adding flashing blue lights to it, and hopefully headlights if I can find a small string of white leds that stay on. I'll replace stay puft with the new staypuft bank coming out in october, and already have a taker for my old Neca one pictured. As far at time, it took probably 5 hours or so to complete over 3 days. I built the top first, built the base, realized I made the base to wide, so rebulit it to be narrower and taller, took the top apart in major assemblies, and then relocated them onto the base. I wanted more of a "playset" feel, so I then added the staircase going up, since playsets always have areas with a small "story" to them. I still need to paint gozer's legs white.. I don't think I need to buy the official one, since this one looks close enough to me.

Seeing those paper diorama gave me an idea for showing off our minimates. We have a TON (3 storage tubs worth) of megabloks dragons parts, so I figured that even though the parts are not film accurate, I could still come up with something cool with them. So, without further ado, I present to you the Gozer Rooftop Temple Playset! Here are the guys just up on the rooftop. Right to left, Peter (being the last up), Egon with PKE pulled, Ray with goggles, stunned looking over at Stay Puft still, and Winston, who's already pulled his thrower. Louis is also here now in gear, and slimer already has him pinned down. Our custom Gareee and Teamhair (We have uniforms and gear in real life) are charging up the stairs to assist... the jogging ghost is sneaking up on me, and the cab ghost just appeared in front of Teamhair, so she has her thrower pulled. And lastly, a shot with the energized terror dogs, and our stunt double for Gozer, cobbled from Ray hair, and a Diana battlestar figure. (We picked up the Lee Adama/Diana Battlestar set.. Lee's head was used for my custom GB head, and Diana's hair was used for my wife's custom GB figure.)
