I like this idea. I think you are right. Though I do also respect the desire for a '59 MM, not as a true representation of what franchises would have, but for those who are going for a film accurate replica. Both are avenues that I appreciate. You know, how many cool pieces of equipment might we see if the community widely embraced the idea of the evolution of the proton pack? Surely they wouldn't look the same in 2012 as they did in 1984. (That being said, I'm still trying to build mine as screen accurate as I can on my budget, and i'm not overlooking those that do come up with some cool original stuff) Oh well, as long as its fun to each!
On another note, I grew up in the Valley and my folks still live there. My dad took pics of your ecto the first time he saw it sitting right around the corner from their house and emailed them to me. I was super stoked to see it! Keep up the good work!
