LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit Review – Intro 〓 :
This LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit is a building toy set that ties in with the new Ghostbusters movie that was released in July 2016. This set includes the Ecto-1 cadillac style vehicle, Ecto-2 motorcycle, Ghostbuster mini-figures, scary demon and many ghost-busting accessories that your kids can reenact the fascinating scene of the movie they love.
Who Would Buy This:
This Ghostbusters set is recommended by Lego for 8 to 14 year olds but we think Lego fans of all ages will like this set. The set includes 5 minifigures: Abby Yates, Erin Gilbert, Jillian Holtzmann, Patty Tolan and Kevin, plus a Mayhem figure.
Things We Like About LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit:
Lego have really got it right with the movie character representation of the mini-figures as they do very much resemble the 3 ladies and 1 guy from the movie. The mayhem demon/ghost figure is pretty good as well we really liked the translucent gargoyle wings and color scheme of this mini-figure.
The whole set has a lot of detail and if you have the existing Ghostbusters Ecto-1 set this will look really nice beside it.
Even though the collectors are likely to grab this set it also has a lot of creative play potential for younger Lego enthusiasts who enjoyed the film.
You can also seat four ghostbusters in this Ecto-1 which wasn’t possible in the previous Lego Version. Another added feature is that with this set you can open the doors as well.
Things We Did Not Like About LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit:
This is a nice set and our issue isn’t really with the Lego set it is with the new movie which we think was nowhere near as good as the original. I suppose we are a bit old school and prefer the original movie and the original Ecto-1. If you are a fan of the new movie then you are going to love this Lego version of the vehicles and the characters from the movie.
Some of the decals can be a bit fiddly to add to the bricks so take it slowly and have some tweezers to hand.
Is LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit Worth The Money?
Many online reviews seem to be comparing this with the previous Lego Ecto-1 vehicle from the original movie and this one comes out on top for value as it has 2 vehicles and 1 more mini-figure. For a 500+ pieces set we would say this is value for money.
Where To Buy LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit?
This set is available from the Lego store and from other online stores such as Amazon and eBay.
Final Thoughts For LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit:
This LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 75828 Building Kit is likely to appeal to fans of the new Ghostbuster movie but even if you are not enamored with the 2016 movie reboot it still is a set that has a lot going for it. It’s a fun build and makes a good display piece especially alongside the original Ecto-1. It will also appeal to Lego hobbyists who like to customize their own sets as there are plenty of interesting pieces and decals provided with this one.
