Sometimes projects lose steam and are retired to a shelf to never be worked on again. In this new series I'm breaking that cycle, dusting off those builds, and finishing them one by one, starting with these Ghostbusters Ecto Goggles.

Ghostbusters (1984)

The Ecto Goggles were first used by Ray Stantz at the Sedgewick Hotel on the Ghostbusters' first case and were mainly worn by him during the Gozer incident. After Ray sighted Slimer flying around a chandelier, the Ecto Goggles pinged and the readout on the left side went green. A number "01333.5" was displayed. Egon Spengler and Peter Venkman did however wear them briefly in the cases that followed. Egon wore his at the 126 Mulberry Street bust. Peter wore his at the Rockefeller Plaza.

Ghostbusters II

The Ecto Goggles are worn a few times by Ray. They are used by Ray when he and Peter go on a stakeout to catch the Jogger Ghost in Central Park. Ray hung his Ecto Goggles with a Trap on the right side of his Pistol Belt when the Ghostbusters filmed their new commercial, when they investigated the Manhattan Museum of Art, and when they arrived at the museum on New Year's Eve.

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

In the summer of 2024, Callie Spengler used Ecto Goggles specifically modified to aid in the operation of the Drone Trap and trapped the Sewer Dragon. Podcast snapped a photograph of Phoebe using the Ecto Goggles camera function before they departed for Melody Diner.
