Default Need Ghostbusters Costume . . . QUICK

I need 4 Ghostbusters costumes for Friday. The best I can come up with is kaki pants, an all grey spring jacket, and putting the Ghostbusters logo on the back of them, as well as on the front, and the names (Peter, Ray, Egon, and Winston) on the front left breast.

Ideas on anything else?

What about getting the backpacks?

Ideas/thoughts?

Cheers,

~ MQS

Depends on whether your the popular ghost busters from the movies and cartoons. Or the Read Ghostbusters from cartoon fame. Because if your the later, your going to need a gorilla costume.

just remember they had their last names on the patches not their first and the logo was on the right arm!

not sure how you'll make the proton pack, maybe cardboard pieces taped into shape and painted.

I don't know if I need 100% accuracy, one of the local bars for the leap year are having Halloween Night II

Hence the costumes. So people will be drunk, and you'd want them to instantly recognize who we are and which ones (not that it'll be hard to tell which one is Egon, and which one is Winston).

I'm trying to think where sells coveralls

The proton pack, that'll be tough, might have to go without it :/

Colour a shoe box with black and yellow stripes, put a string on one end and you got yourself that ghost catching thing.

I'm thinking of getting the heat press iron on things at Staples, and putting the logo on the back of this, as well as on the arm, and of course name on the left breast

Disposable coveralls from Ukrainian Tire, blue-grey cheap. Supersoakers, hose and boxes for the proton guns and packs. Lots of duct tape.

Now that is a proton pack...wow.

For the pack paint a box black and put a light switch on the back. Or you could just wear regular clothes and say your the ghostbuster pre fire hall.
