Prototype grenades, a ghost chipper, a ghost shotgun, a ghost piston, a proton glove -- these are just some of the epic weapons the four main Ghostbusters will be wielding in Paul Feig's upcoming film.

In a behind-the-scenes clip, the cast and crew of the 2016 supernatural comedy discuss the gadgets they worked with while filming.

"I remember the first time we tried them on I thought, 'That's really heavy,' says Melissa McCarthy, who plays Abby Yates in the film. "There's no movie magic -- it's like, do they look heavy and sharp? That's because they are."
