Liking the BTTF van btw. I might have to do one to go with my corgi Delorean.
I'd like to see that, too.

For those of you who didn't buy in on the Cryptozoic Entertainment Board Game.. http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtop ... 7#p4826553
...Crooked Dice have one of their own which uses their Figures along with others.

"Paranormal Exterminator Programme Guide available

Here’s the first release for our 7TV second edition rules – the Paranormal Exterminators programme guide. With thirty new profiles for ghost hunters, spectres, spooks and cryptozoological threats, this 24 page PDF will allow you to add a supernatural spin to your 7TV games. Also included are four scenarios and background material on the little known Dead On Arrival television show from the Barron archives – all illustrated with photography from Kevin Dallimore."

I haven't purchased it yet, but will let you all know how it is when I do.

Nice group shot with their version of an Ecto Convertible.

I guess you have. Nice job on the Ecto Mini. :nicejobyoudid:

I downloaded the FREE 7TV 2nd Edition Game Rules and purchased the Paranormal Exterminators Programme Guide.

Instead of writing a page and a half of explanations, I found a "Gamer Show" review that talks about the Paranormal Exterminators Game. Much easier and less painful for all concerned.

Starts around 23:50 and goes to about 35:40

Wow! Cool stuff. I made some guys out of Heroclix figures for the upcoming Kickstarter "Ghostbusters: the Boardgame". I made family and friends, just for fun. I hate to give them away!

this just showed up in my Facebook news feed...

"This Fire Station is made from 3mm MDF, and 1mm grey board. It is easy to put together and looks great on the tabletop. Model supplied unpainted and will require assembly. We advise using PVA glue for the best results. The Fire Station stands 24cm tall, 16cm wide and 26cm deep."

(I'd say that is approx. 9.5" tall, 6.5" wide, and 10.5" deep)... cost is £21.95 / $32

plus they have lots of other city props etc in that scale that would work well with this

Hey BB!

Nice job on the custom figures. Got any shots of the Packs that they are wearing? Did you scratch build their equipment or are they found pieces?

Nice find there, Joe!

$45.30 when you include shipping. :-D

Some more Paranormal Investigators from Crooked Dice. These five should show up sometime in September.

Image

Unlike the first batch, these seem to be sporting Movie Accurate Packs. For being only an inch tall, the likeness of the Figures to the Actresses and Actor are pretty spot on.

Image

Crooked Dice also have a Vehicle, which is available right now.

Image

For those who can't have enough 'Busters, Nexus Studios will be releasing figures of the "Original" Ghostbusters from the live action TV show.

Small update on the Figures I'm working on.

Looks like the Terrorists are about to show up for a visit...


Image

...and getting back to Ghostbusters, we have a Cab Driver crossing over from the Game thread.

Those look awesome. I haven't painted figures in ages. That would be great to get back into if I become unemployed in the near future. (Which seems fairly likely - the writing is on the wall.)

And I LOVE Kevin's heroic pose. And the hammer. :)

Got my 2016 Paranormal Investigators!

Only putting up progression pics of Holtzmann as I'll be adding Wires to Her Pistols and maybe a Bandolier.

Thanks for asking. I haven't cast up anything for sale for about 2 years.

Found a new favorite Paint Color. Zinc. Used it for painting the Packs, Guns and the "Hose".

Image

It looks Black until the light hits it and it shines a Dark Metallic Silver.

Image

I also painted Her Gloves ands Boots with my other favorite, Oily Black.

Image

I also managed to get the Caution Stripe in on the back.

Image

I purchased the Zinc at Michaels.

Image

Next, I'll light up the Packs.

Thanks Joe!

Getting into the home stretch with these. Buckles and Buttons all painted up and Straps touched up. Packs are being lit up. I have Holtzmann's done to show you.


Image

The tiny lights on the Guns and Pack were a bit of a pain to paint...

Image

...but the results were well worth the time.

Image

Here She is under Black Light.

Image

Image

Once all the Packs are lit, I'll have Finger Tips and a few touch ups and then they'll be ready to attach to their Bases.

Back to the Paranormal Exterminators 2016. Here's some group shots, front...

Image

...and back. Still need a few touch ups and minor things like the Lenses on their Glasses but they are ready to be attached to their Bases.

Image

Time to look at the other 'busters. Here's Abby with her Power Glove...

Image

...Erin shootin' 'em up...

Image

...Patty leading the charge...

Image

...and Kevin, with his Hammer dangling.

All figures are mounted to their Bases. A few more tweaks to show such as Fingers being painted, "Glass" in Glasses and some Color in Patty's Hair.

Image

This angle shows the detail a bit better on Abby's Power Glove.

Image

The number of Paranormal Investigators has exceeded the seating of the Ecto...I need to find a Vehicle with a larger passenger capacity. Any ideas?
