I just finished it today. I have been working on it for about two months now. This will be my seventh trap to build and the best to date. My last two traps were on the fan film Return of the Ghostbusters. Ok about the trap. There are no resin parts all parts are the real deal except the front knobs on the trap I had to make them by hand. The Trap is made out of wood and metal. Lights are powerd by two AA batteries. It has a fourteen segment LED light bar on the front and a flashing red LED on the back just like the movie. They are turned on and off by a toggle switch located by the red LED on the back of the trap. As seen in my pictures and video. Doors on the trap do open and that is where the batteries are located for easy access. Oh and the Wheels do roll. It is up on ebay now!
It is a shame right off I need to sell it but you all know how it is.

Great trap, But i think your price is ridiculous!!! I could buy the parts and build my own for less. Anyone who pays 600 bucks for that must be crazy. A friend of mine got the real ghostbusters toy trap and repainted it to look like the movie trap. Im thinking about doing the same. Good luck with your auction.

I say build one your self but don't order other peoples parts make your own. Then work on it with the detail that I did. Ok then work 12 to 14 hour days on the trap. Tell me what your time is worth? Crazy you say I seen crap sale on ebay for higher. Oh don't forget the hours of being at hardware stores ,reserch on the computer , watching Ghostbuster 10000 times, make your own plans for the trap, make your own light kit and so on . Please build one your self. Thanks

$600 is a lot for it, even if it is a nice trap. You've obviously put a lot of work into it, but it never ceases to amaze me that people don't realize that with eBay you need to start with a bid lower than what you're expecting to get, and let it get bid up. You can always set a reserve price of $600 or whatever.

And if you've already done that here and you're expecting to get more than $600… all I can say is good luck, especially with the Master Replicas props coming out within the next year, and that supposedly their stuff is going to be cheaper than this.

Now that you put it like that, Maybe you should raise the price LOL!
I didnt mean what i said as a insult or anything. I hope you didnt take it as that. It really is one of the best ones i have seen. It looks like it came right from the movie and im not just saying that.
