Ghostbusters ECTO-1

Bustin’ has made us feel good since 1984. And while Lego has already released two minifig-scale takes on the ECTO-1 – one based on the car in the original film, one on the 2016 reboot version – you’ll feel really good when putting together this 47cm beauty, which finally gives a movie icon the set it deserves.

This is, note, a tie-in with the upcoming Ghostbusters: Afterlife. But that does mean you get the original 1959 Cadillac Miller-meteor ambulance – albeit a little rusty and grubby, having spent decades in a derelict garage. Luckily, everything’s in working order in this

Lego version, including the steering, extendable rear gunner seat and moving ghost-sniffer.

When the car’s built, we recommend putting it on a high shelf rather than letting any resident five-year-old wannabe-ghostbuster bomb around with it. Otherwise you might return to a pile of bricks that looks like it’s been stomped on by the Stay-puft Marshmallow Man.
