Back-To-School GB gear piles up for Fall

A host of gentlemen – thanks, Tim, John, Jonathan, Travis – sent in links to a variety of sweet Ghostbusters packs, including a glow-in-the-dark logo backpack, a way over the top Stay-Puft backpack, and a logo messenger bag.

Spencer’s has the glow-in-the dark pack (shown above – photo by ) – a recent online sale (at half off the regular $60) has it listed as out of stock, but some store still have it.

Hot Topic is selling this crazy vinyl Stay Puft backpack for $30. Not recommended to anyone over the age of 12, but it’s still pretty bad ass.

And finally, for the rest of us, Hot Topic has this slightly more grown-up (in as much as it has a giant Ghostbusters logo on it) messenger bag for $30.

And for those who haven’t seen it yet, 80s Tees is still taking pre-orders ($40) on BioWorld’s ultimate Ghostbusters Proton Pack Backpack – that’s not really what it’s called, but it should be.

Holy heck, it's a Proton Pack backpack!

Holy crap!

80s Tees, purveyors of fine Ghostbusters tees and other merch, have posted pictures of their upcoming Summer release… a backpack made to look like a proton pack. Judging scale is a little tricky, but you can see it’s a beige canvas pack, with the body of a proton pack printed on it, and a smaller, round pouch, with the cyclotron printed on it. Attached to it by a black nylon cord his another pouch, this one printed with the particle thrower. What attaches one to the other (clip versus velco) is hard to make out.

But who cares? $40. Backpack that looks like a proton pack. I don’t even have kids and I HAVE to get one. Some day, a child of mine will wear that to school proudly. This is a considerable step up from Spencer’s Gifts Slimer pack.
