Finding parts for your proton pack has never been easier. There are numerous places to buy parts from but your three main ports of call should www.gbfans.com, www.theukghostbusters.co.uk and www.benofkentprops.com. With Nickatron being a UK seller, your delivery charges will be
significantly less and there’ll be no import charges too. GBfans offers parts for sale out of their shop but it’s highly recommended checking out their for sale section within the forum. Likewise, the UK Ghostbusters for sale thread can also be found on the forum. For both sites, you will need register as a member to view the for sale sections. Most sellers on the for sale sections link to their person website shops, well worth checking out what they have in stock there too.
A lot of sellers offer resin casts of parts which is a cheaper alternative than buying actual parts.
This can be very helpful to those building on a budget and with such an active community, you can find pretty much any part you care to think of. Alternatively, you may wish to go the ultra accurate route and buy aluminium or stainless steel parts. These are usually a bit more expensive but they
will last you a lifetime. Screen used hero packs had metal HGAs, Booster tubes, injector tubes, beam line tubes, N filters, ion arms, vac tube and throwers. The ALICE frames that your pack is mounted to are vintage Vietnam era military spec. These usually crop up on ebay though expect to have shipping from the states, with them being US army spec, the majority of them are from the US. Some have known to have cropped up from the UK.
It’s also worthwhile looking around military surplus shops, you may just get lucky and find one!
