    I think this is the beautiful part of "Afterlife" as it opens up so much. Many of us have ordered the Hasbro pack. I have as well. I went with the Fox frame.
    This is the fun part in the genius of what Jason Rietman did. We can be screen accurate if we want. However, the story itself opens up so much interpretation to the time since Egon left that pretty much any mod to the pack frame, or the pack itself, is open to individual interpretation. 30 years of evolution possibilities. It works on so many levels.

    I was doubting to order one real Military LC-1 or LC-2 but your video convinced me to order one of amazon, its the right one and screen accurate I'm happy with that. I think to much work needs to be done converting the LC-2.

    Ordered one through the amazon link in the description, was delivered today and got the correct one with the squared off openings. Good price and they shipped to the UK for a very reasonable amount.
    Will be following you're channel closely for more tips so I can make this hasbro pack as authentic as possible.
    Your video's are the true essence of CZcams, great work.

    Thank you so much for all your investigations. I have found a Rothco frame that is the correct frame. I will be on the lookout for two right quick release straps. If I find them. I will let you know! I also purchased two hasbro HasLab proton packs.Thanks again

    I'm in Canada and i was able to order a Rothco frame from a Canadian chain of airsoft/milsurp stores called Camouflage for $75CAD(about $60usd). I can confirm that it has the square openings in the frame and triple stitched straps with a single quick release

    Great video man. I have a OG military LC-2 frame which I picked up a while ago. I hope that one manages to work with the Haslab Pack despite it being made for LC-1 frames. The Rothco one is nice and while accurate to the film, I wanted to use a real military frame.

      It should be fine. The key difference between all the frames are the straps. The frames themselves have the same general dimensions.

      That’s the one I bought (and the one that’s on the Afterlife packs in the movie). It’s made to mimic the LC-1 frame. From what I’ve read the LC-2 isn’t fitting due to the way it bows out a little more than the LC-1.

    Ive got an authentic field used 80's lc-2 frame without straps. I know the pack will come with mounting equipment and hopefully instructions on how to install it. But ahead of time, would I need to do any drilling on the spine part of the frame so it can be mounted to the pack?

      @@TheProtonPackIsNotAToy I agree, the differences between each is minimal, and hopefully they did take that into consideration. It's best to order the LC-1 frames now, before the packs ship out in March of 2023.

      Yes, the genuine military surplus LC-1’s are harder to find. For the HasLab a Rothco frame from Amazon is just as good and more accurate to the Afterlife prop. A heavy pack would not do well on a Rothco, though.
