well there is a lot of places you can go. I don\'t have anymore build pics other than what was shown unfortunately in the thread they pointed you too. I\'d highly recommend gbfans.com there is always parts and pieces available there in the classified section, and there is also a guy there named Colin who makes some great resin parts I believe he runs a site named Multimedia Mayhem. I personally had a lot of help from my friend who is very good with electronics. He showed me a lot of wiring and things to do with LED\'s that ultimately made me achieve the goal of making my pack. I will warn you it is very time consuming and if you don\'t have a lot of time (like me I have a daughter and work full time) it can take months to finish. I started working on mine in March of last year and finished it around Septemberish I believe. Don\'t get discouraged though, this was my first time ever attempting anything like this and I was very very happy with how it turned out. My friend and I cast all of our pieces ourselves for this one pack. It can get very costly with the materials needed as well. We ended up buying soundchips in bulk from a company in Japan to load up the proton pack sounds and theme song on. We were going to start selling them and never got around to it.We still have all those chips etc. You also should check an army surplus store for an alice pack frame that is what you use for the pack straps portion and support of the pack. Good luck and I can\'t wait to see your progress!
