#2016 GHOSTBUSTERS CAR MOVIE#
When the original Ghostbusters movie was shot, the 1959 car they used was more than 30 years old. I don’t think it contains an awful lot of new parts, other than several new black 1×1 round tiles and a grand total of 8 white 2×2 wedge plates, but there is plenty of other useful stuff such as grey and white brackets and brown jumper plates, for instance.īeing a fan of movie cars, I had seen pictures of the new ECTO-1 before building this. Like the ECTO-1 booklet, this one does have short descriptions of the characters, which, given that they are new and largely unknown, is handy.īesides the booklet, the box contains four numbered bags of parts, with a few smaller bags with small parts inside them, and a small sticker sheet. The instruction booklet also has a normal cover instead of the slightly stiffer cover used for the LEGO Ideas ECTO-1 set, which suggests that the new set is not so much aimed at collectors. Unlike the box for the LEGO Ideas ECTO-1 set that I reviewed two years ago, this set has a regular box. The goodie bag I received during my recent trip to Billund contained an early release copy of this set, which gives me the opportunity to review it. The set was announced in February, is due for release in the Summer, and will retail in the US for $59.99.


And this is not a movie review site, of course, but there is at least one interesting thing that has already come out of this movie so far: a brand-new LEGO set, 75828 Ghostbusters ECTO 1 & 2. Of course I’ll have to withhold judgement on whether the movie is any good until after it hits the discount DVD bin. The first trailer quickly became the most disliked movie trailer on YouTube and the second trailer strikes me as particularly unfunny too. The long-awaited third Ghostbusters movie is due to première in about five weeks.
