Yeah, I'm impressed. Looks like I'll have to head over to Radio Shack and see if I can pick up one of those project boxes. It's perfect!

I really like the RGB packs, but the only problem I had with them was the massive switch. It never translated well to real packs for me, but that yellow switch guard definitely fixed my only grudge with the RGB thrower. Looks awesome...

I really like your thrower.

The pack looks a little empty to me, but it's definitely not bad.

Now that definitely gives it a more full look. No proton pack is complete without the mass of wiring and tubes, if you ask me.
