Just curious if anyone heard of them, if they are any good, etc.

Welcome to Department 1031

No, don't know the Co. But that ghost looks great (The price is scary too)

lol yes it is.

And hard to mount. An 8 foot ceiling outside? Tree would be all I could think of and even then it would be tricky.

Looks like a very good sales pitch/website for a very basic item. I would like to see an actual photo or video in a real-world application.

You can buy great FCGs for about half that, or build one for about a tenth of their price.

I was considering buying from them as well but was turned on to these people who seemed to be highly rated.
I plan to buy one from them for 2010.

I think i spent in the neighborhood of $100 to make my FCG, and i thought mine was pretty elaborate. My frame is all aluminum stock, stainless pullies and a rotisserie motor and it works like a charm.....have a look at my profile for links to it. I'd be happy to lend you a hand at construction if need be.

I vote for making the FCG yourself. It's not a difficult prop to make and there are many people here on the forum that can help. I think the most expensive part of my FCG rig was the 2 pieces of aluminum I purchased from a hardware store for the front of the rig and the rotating arm. Very cheap and easy, but that's just one man's opinion.

That is EXPENSIVE, but it does include a pretty nice ghost with hands...

I'd think you'd be able to find a FCG rig for around $120-$150, and it only costs about $15 to make the ghost yourself.
