Mine does too.

I wonder if they delayed delivering two in the box until after the Ecto haslab? I could see concern about any negative news about" two in the box " botched orders preventing people ordering the Ecto

Nah, this was always the release schedule for the Two in a Box, there's been no delay and there are even people receiving theirs overseas. I mean, CANADA may run into some issues, but that's not on Hasbro at all.

OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!

[zeta otaku]

OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!

How many hands you got?! (I kid, I kid)

Just checked on mine and I'm now HYPED. REALLY hoping we get these before Christmas

[mrmichaelt]

How did you check that on the FedEx site?

[zeta otaku]

I think if you set up an account with them, it'll list any packages going to the address you supply. It's been a while since I made my account though, so I may be wrong.

[mrmichaelt]

I think if you set up an account with them, it'll list any packages going to the address you supply. It's been a while since I made my account though, so I may be wrong.

I got it.

1. Sign up for a personal account on FedEx

2. Top of the screen, there's a drop down menu, Tracking, pick Manage Your Delivery.

3. You are taken to Delivery Manager page, click sign up, if you're logged in, it will then ask to send a code to your phone. Enter it.

4. Once you're done, use the app or on the site go back to the Manage Your Delivery, it will take you to Delivery Manager page, click the orange box Manage All Deliveries, you will see your advanced shipments.

My tracking number is already listed but so far just a label was created. Mine is coming from the Chino warehouse, too.

edit: Yeah, if the labels are being created, we're likely getting these well before Christmas thank goodness.

Glad you got that sorted and welcome to the club.

Seeing as I'm in Jersey and the warehouse is in Cali, I suspect it'll take about a week to get here once these suckers start moving.

Also, a few friends and I theorize we should start seeing our first mass produced mods within 6 months of these being delivered starting with keep alive boards and alternate light packages for the PKE and trap.

[mrmichaelt]

Tracking number check indicates, my label was created today. I suspect the same for everyone. 10 pound package of goodness coming soon.

Seeing as I'm in Jersey and the warehouse is in Cali, I suspect it'll take about a week to get here once these suckers start moving.

Weird. I figured you'd be through the Elwood warehouse, unless they're only using the Chino warehouse this time around.

Also, a few friends and I theorize we should start seeing our first mass produced mods within 6 months of these being delivered starting with keep alive boards and alternate light packages for the PKE and trap.

Yeah, ok, so so far the GB2 light sequence might be omitted? I think I read something about that in this thread. If so, that will probably be one of the first light packages.

I bet we'll start seeing the smoke machines in less then three months. Whatever becomes available hopefully they'll be plug and play, and easy to install.

[ecto1matt]

Like this one right here on Instagram.

Hopefully it's not as much as the trap. no ones worried about the smoke damaging the trap?

[SpaceBallz]

Hand the PKE to a child and watch as every overhead light or nearby power-socket they walk past makes it light up. That's why they included this feature, because it's slightly more realistic than random.

Umm, no. I'm not handing my $300 toy to my child who keeps losing his backpacks and hats/gloves at school. They can have the Hasbro Wal-Mart PKE Meter.

I get that it's a "Hasbro Toy" but it's very clearly marketed towards adults.

[Giangieto]

Qui per l'italia neanche l'ombra di spedizione

[timeware]

Translation they're pissed. Here for Italy not even the slightest shipping. Google Translator works!

[gamera1968]

I just logged into my FedEx account, no labels created yet. No big deal, I can wait. It seems that Christmas will arrive early this year.

[Turtuv]

Yeah, ok, so so far the GB2 light sequence might be omitted? I think I read something about that in this thread. If so, that will probably be one of the first light packages.

I'm interested in this argument since i really would like to have a GB2 led sequence for the PKE, i've asked to the influencer who already got it, but only few replied and they told me that don't know if the PKE has this features somewhere. i've asked to Pat from haslab team too on youtube, but never got a reply. so i'm losing hope about this, since i'm not good with manual work and i'll never open my PKE to install a third party light mod

I think it was the Adam Savage video, but there's a "high energy" and a "low energy" setting on the PKE that changes the screen LED sequence, but I don't know if that also changes the wing LED sequence. With this PKE being based on the Afterlife/Frozen Empire model, I wouldn't be super surprised if they only used that light sequence for this (which I think was based off of GB1). I know the trap has GB1 and GB2 settings, but that being a larger prop with more space to spare, it's understandable (and again, Afterlife used GB1 as the base for it's visuals)

-EDIT-

This is why I was so against them cramming an EMF into this thing. Removing that would've freed up some of the precious space in the PKE to allow for a second light sequence or a mechanism to mechanically retract the wings from taser mode back into PKE mode. The EMF is a novelty gimmick at best and I'll die on the hill that skipping it would've allowed for other features owners would use far more frequently.

[gamera1968]

I just logged into my FedEx account and I was surprised to see this.
The label was created 2 days ago, (12-3-24) and I guess the site updated overnight. Strange, but I'm glad to see this.

Question...Does anyone know the actual measurments to the Ghost trap, peddle and PKE Meeter? i have yet to see that. Maybe im missing something.

I ask because i just got a new bookshelf from Ikea and want to know if they will fit. It should, but one never knows for sure!

Thanks!

I agree with you. Besides, even the pack had two modes, so it's a shame if the PKE doesn't have a GB2 mode too. But let's wait until it will arrive and then we'll see

Am I the only one who is super excited for this feature and a huge part in getting it? It turns the prop into a real world item. Also, have you seen the inside of a normal EMF reader? It's almost the size of a 9v battery... I personally have not seen the inside of the haslab PKE so I can't comment on if they "crammed it in" but I highly doubt it. I can't wait to use this feature

this is how much space the emf takes up: https://imgur.com/y9h9qV4

I'm guessing the pcb for the PKE is even smaller since they omit those LEDs and blank board space

again, there's the high/low energy modes that was mentioned in one of the unboxing videos, so that MIGHT do exactly what you want. Until someone who knows what the GB2 sequence should look like gets one of these, we won't know for sure. Stay hopeful!

There really isn't a lot of space in these things. I've built 2 garage kit PKEs and worked on several Matty PKEs in the past and there REALLY isn't a lot of space to work with. Sure you have PCBs to keep things a bit neater, but you still have the motors for the wings, you need to reserve space for the wings to fold into, plus the spring system to go into taser mode, supports and mounting material for the PCBs with the LEDs for the screen, the servos, and pathing for wires, and reinforcement material for the PKE to pass fall testing.

Look, I'm not saying the EMF feature isn't neat, it is. I'm just saying that space could have been used for a more practical feature like a more robust volume control beyond on and off

[ecto1matt]

EMF was a big selling point to me more than the taser. Then there is the IR part between the meter & trap is a neat bonus.

[timeware]

I like the idea of the PKE meter and Trap working together. Hopefully the modes won't conflict with each other if you forget to turn the trap off.

I wouldn't worry too much about that - both the trap and P.K.E. meter will go into a sleep mode after 5 minutes when they are not being used. (to preserve the AA batteries)

[Michael C]

If it's anything, obviously it's for an interaction with the PKE.

That reminds of the one time on RGB in "Doctor, Doctor" when Ray looked at the trap holding ghost and noticed the class level dropped one level then Egon comes with his P.K.E. Meter and confirms. heh.

Just call me Egon from now on

yes, the fact is that no one knows for sure tho. so we have to wait and see, i hope to read some update here regarding this feature!

I'm checking my FedEx status daily, so as soon as I get mine (if no one beats me), I'll make a video of the two modes.
