Proton Pack - Complete
Occasionally, a completed Proton Pack will go for sale on eBay. Most of these replicas are fitted with working lights, and in some cases, a sound system with looping sound effects when the wand is "in use."
Proton Pack - Kits
Proton Pack kits rarely show up on eBay. They typically provide you with the basic, major parts you'll need to get started. Of course, building your own kit is much more cost effective (as well as time consuming). Plans and schematics for building a proton pack can be found here.
Proton Pack Labels & Stickers
There are several notable labels needed for the pack and wand to make it more genuine looking. To see the stickers in detail, click here and scroll down to the lower left-most thumbnail, and click it.
