Mattel ghostbusters conversion (update 12-28-2012 PG1)

Re: Mattel ghostbusters conversion (updated page 1)

And a few months later they're mostly finished...

I was unable to find elbow pads, so I cut the pad section off the Mattel figures and then glued a thinner strap to it. Not great, but good enough.

I lost Egon's glasses; so after I find a replacement and dirty up the uniforms a bit I'll call them done.

will hopefully be able to finish mine soon now that heads are done, but still struggling for elbow pads. might do what you did - it doesn't look too bad at all.

Yeah, for as much as you see of the elbow pads when on display it's a decent solution. If anyone offers resin ones again (hint, hint) I'd be happy to upgrade, but for now its "good enough" and cheap... the added cost was 87¢ for 4" of fabric

Of course! That is an amazing line up of figures. Although wouldn't you count the Doc paint up as one of the Elvis projects? I'm trying to think, who is MG

Don't forget about Doc! And yeah I know who he is. That Ludicrous Speed figure looks fantastic! I'm far behind you; I only have one 'secret' project in development. Nevertheless it's exciting!
