LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (10274) Officially Announced

November 5, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has officially announced their next direct-to-consumer set with the LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (10274). The vehicle is based on the new version that is in the upcoming Ghostbusters: Afterlife which can be seen in the trailer. The Ecto-1 has 2,352 pieces and will retail for $199.99 and it will be available in a few weeks starting on November 15. Although the Ecto-1 is based on the new film, you can probably not use some of the rust stickers and have it look like the version in the original 1984 film. Check out more images of the set as well as the press release below.

LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827) Amazon Sale

October 31, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

There’s a decent sale going at Amazon for the LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827) that is 11% off the retail price. It is currently at $309.99 which saves you $40 on it. Outside of using VIP points, this is the lowest the set has been at. I’ve heard some rumors that the Ghostbusters Firehouse could be retiring soon but I can’t confirm the validity of it. Considering that the set was released back in January 2016 and direct-to-consumer sets have roughly a two year shelf life, it wouldn’t be out of the possibility that it might be gone after this year.

If you want to earn VIP points on this set, today is the last day of Double Points on Shop@Home and you’ll be able to earn 699 points from it. That means you’ll be getting back $35 from points but that’s still less than the Amazon sale so you’ll have to decide which way to go.

LEGO BrickHeadz Ghostbusters Peter Venkman & Slimer (41622) Official Images

May 25, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Last week, LEGO released a teaser for the LEGO BrickHeadz Ghostbusters Peter Venkman & Slimer (41622) but today we now have the official images of the set via Promobricks. The set has 228 pieces and will probably retail for $19.99 like all other BrickHeadz two-packs. Fans have been wondering how Slimer will float like it does in the teaser image and we can confirm that there will be a trans-clear 2×2 brick to help out with the illusion.

Top 10 LEGO 2016 Sets

December 28, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

I’ve had quite a few readers asking if I would do a post about my top 10 LEGO sets of 2016. Since this is the last week of the year, I guess this is now a good time to do that post. According to Brickset, there was 828 sets released this year, including gift with purchase sets, so whittling it down to 10 is quite hard to do. Again, this is just my list of top 10 sets and may vary from other people.

10. LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827)

Probably one of the best items for any Ghostbusters fan is the Firehouse Headquarters (75827). Coming in at over 4,600 pieces, there is a ton of little details from both the original Ghostbusters movies that you can find. Check out my review of the set here.

9. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge (76057)

As one of the largest non-D2C LEGO Marvel Super Heroes set to be released, the Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge (76057) is a great set with lots of exclusive minifigures included such as Scarlet Spider and Kraven. Many fans have even bought two sets to make a complete bridge.

8. LEGO Creator Vacation Getaways (31052)

This 3-in-1 set is a pretty neat set that looks great as the standard model but can also be rebuilt into a summer home and a yacht. The RV is one of the best models of this type of vehicle I’ve seen.

LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 (75828) Review

July 6, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

When the LEGO officially announced the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 (75828) set, there was very mixed reactions to it, much like to the trailer when it came out, although it was towards the positive side more unlike for the trailer itself.

For me personally when I saw the details of the new Ecto-1, I actually liked it because of some of the details and features it has which I’ll get to later on. The Ecto-1 & 2 contains 556 pieces and retails for $59.99 which actually isn’t too bad for a licensed set. The contents of the box includes four numbered bags, one instruction booklet, and a small sticker sheet.

LEGO Dimensions Ghostbusters Stay Puft Fun Pack (71233) Review

March 17, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A few days ago, LEGO released the newest wave of LEGO Dimensions expansion packs including the Ghostbusters Stay Puft Fun Pack (71233). This Fun Pack contains 65 pieces and normally retails for $14.99 but they’ve been on sale for half off recently.

Minifigure

The minifigure included in the Fun Pack is the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man which many LEGO Ghostbusters fans have been waiting for. He’s a pretty simple minifigure but the character is represented perfectly in minifigure form. The torso has the red scarf pattern which could be very nice for other minifigure uses while the head and collar piece is one mold. The head itself is very nice with the little molding details of the chubby face. Finally it comes with the NFC disc that all Dimensions minifigures come with.

Build

The main build for the Fun Pack is the Terror Dog. It does resemble the demonic beast very well even though it is brick-built. The face has the angry look that is accentuated by the red eyes. The head

The first alternate build for the Terror Dog is the Terror Dog Destroyer. It’s almost the same as the regular one but it has two heads.

The last build for the Terror Dog is the Soaring Terror Dog which is a flying version of it that kind of look like a dragon.

Overall, majority of the people who are picking up the Ghostbusters Stay Puft Fun Pack (71233) is for the Stay Puft minifigure because he is exclusive to this set. The Terror … Continue
