1,530How We Made a Working and More Movie Accurate ECTO 1 Upgrade with Lights and Siren. Introducing the Ghost Busters Plasma Series 1/18 scale Ecto 1. Today we are going to show you how to make it look more movie accurate by adding lights, switches, making our own accessories, and showing you tricks like how to make solid parts into transparent glass. I also tell the story of my first Ghostbusters Halloween. Check out free stuff below. #ecto1, #YourGeekFix, #Ecto1build
