LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827) Review

February 29, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

When the then Ecto-1 (21108) was announced that it would be the next LEGO Ideas set, Ghostbusters fans were both happy and sad. Good because we would be getting an iconic car, bad that we wouldn’t be getting the firehouse to go along with it.

Fast forward about a year and a half and rumors started swirling in the community that we would be getting the firehouse in 2016 and back in October, it was revealed that we would indeed be getting the Firehouse Headquarters (75827) next year and shortly after that, the official images of the set were released. The set features details from both Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II.

LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & Ecto-2 (75828) Official Images Revealed

February 5, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

Just a short while ago, LEGO revealed the official images of the new LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (75828) set from the upcoming movie based on the all-female cast. As you can see, the set features all of the main characters including Melissa McCarthy as Abby Yates, Kristen Wiig as Erin Gilbert, Kate McKinnon as Jillian Holtzmann, and Leslie Jones as Patty Tolan. The Ecto-1 is based on a new vehicle and is able to fit all four Ghostbusters minifigures. It also seems that all of their proton packs will be able to fit in the back as well.

Also revealed along with the Ecto-1 is the Ecto-2 motorcycle which is ridden by Chris Hemsworth’s character Kevin. One of the images also might contain a spoiler as Kevin seems to be possessed. The last minifigure in the set is a red Daemon which could be something that’s part of the plot.

Reports have that the set is priced at $59.99 and will be available on July 1st.

One LEGO Ghostbusters 2016 Movie Set Based on New Ecto-1

January 8, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 11 Comments

A few days ago, Paul Feig, the writer and director of the new all-female cast of Ghostbusters, tweeted saying there will be some fun stuff from LEGO that will be based off the movie. We already knew that there will be at least one set because of the licensing announcement back in November.

Fast forward to today where Just2Good on Eurobricks has posted that one set (75828) will be the new Ecto-1 which is the 1980’s Cadillac Fleetwood station wagon. Of course, there’s no images yet but it’ll be based on the vehicle seen above. There’s not other information given besides that but hopefully it’ll be large enough to fit all four of the new Ghostbusters crew unlike the Ideas Ecto-1 (21108) which couldn’t hold all four and the proton packs.

There’s also no word on how many sets will be released based on the movie so there’s much speculation there too as well. From the sound of Feig’s tweet, it might suggest a couple of sets but we’ll see. The new Ghostbusters movie will be released in theaters on July 15.

Fun stuff coming from LEGO too. Just FYI. Sorry, bank account. https://t.co/qs1ZjVMXAX

LEGO 2016 Set Rumors (Various Themes)

November 6, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

It’s that time of the year were more details of 2016 set will be coming out. My trusty source has provided me with some more rumored LEGO sets coming throughout next year. There are no pictures but I do have some details for various themes. Let’s just start alphabetically by theme.

For the Architecture sets, we kinda knew about the city type ones but one that wasn’t touched on was one featuring Buckingham Palace from the United Kingdom. It’s made up of lots of tan pieces and also includes a mini double-decker bus.

There was also mentioning of one of the LEGO Ghostbusters sets from the reboot movie which I posted the announcement earlier today. All I have from Ghostbusters is a set number of 75828 with $79.99 NZD.

LEGO TECHNIC fans also get in on the fun with a Bucket Wheel Excavator (42055) that goes for $499 NZD. There’s also another TECHNIC set named “Ultimate Vehicle” which goes for $699 NZD. I’m not sure if that’s the final name of it or not but that’s what I was told.

Although I said I would go alphabetically with themes, I saved what could be an awesome set for last. Back in 2013, LEGO released the LEGO Creator Sydney Opera House (10234) which was based off of the famous building in Australia. Rumor has it that LEGO will be releasing another world building set with the Big Ben (10253) from London with the pricing at $499 NZD.
