Just kidding!! It looks terrific!
I picked up Doug's GB2 gizmo and its on my list of things to build. I like those padded straps! I should really look into getting those. Do you find they twist out on you?
I've meshed both GB1 and GB2 together so much, I've pretty much threw continuity aside and took the best of both worlds...
- I like the red rods better, so I kept that...
- I much prefer LC-1 over LC-2, so I stuck with LC-1, but I still padded them ala GB2 (however, Ramis had padded LC-1s in GB2... and yes, they twist, but they're so comfortable, I don't mind it, and it really doesn't get to the point of annoyance... if anything, I only notice the twisting because of photos)... I also noticed I forgot to strap down my waist strap in this photo... not sure what the thinner LC-1 waist strap looks like in the GB2 suit, but again, I'm sticking to it, because I just like it better...
- most of the pack is configured GB1 Spengler hero, except the Planet Hollywood style OEM Powertec Power Supply box on the motherboard (right where the REGBSCS decal is)...
- I do want a GB2 Gizmo, though, because it really is a unique look for the gray suit...
- Franchesky really outdid himself with my new custom trap holster, it worked perfectly with the thicker GB2 belt

I have all the plans to, but I have to wait till October... too many expenses right now that I have to get out of the way first...
