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 Ghostbusters Reboot Licensed Sets Coming in 2016

November 6, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

Just2Good over on Eurobricks has found out that LEGO will be part of a licensing agreement to produce sets for the upcoming Ghostbusters reboot movie featuring the all-female cast. There was no mentioning on what will be coming out but I assume it be various scenes from the movie like they usually do with movie tie-in sets.

This report was from a few days ago but the whole LEGO Ghostbusters theme is not without controversy. Yesterday, one of the creators of the Ghostbusters Firehouse on LEGO Ideas posted a statement regarding the similarities between their project and the official Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827). I shared that post on Facebook and there was mixed reaction.

Anyways, Ghostbusters will be released in July 2016 so we can probably expect sets between May and July.
