October 25, 20159 yr Can't you only buy D2C sets from the Lego store/Lego shop online? At first, yes. After a while, they usually become available at selected retailers like TRU
October 25, 20159 yr 70140 is the set number, that's all I know. I think J2G posted about it a while ago, and it might've been in the S@H URL trick. I'm about to start searching, but where is this being discussed?? Thanks!
October 25, 20159 yr I'm about to start searching, but where is this being discussed?? Thanks! It's not. There's really nothing to discuss at this point. A set number is not enough.Back to the Firehouse, please.
October 25, 20159 yr Well this discussion has been heating up! Pun always intended. I will not be buying this set at full price. I have witnesses now that I must keep my promise to. Boom. $350 saved.
October 26, 20159 yr I remember when Lego released the Helicarrier they gave away a Winter Soldier Polybag, I wonder whether they'll do the same thing here, a Mini ECTO-1 maybe?

I wish, I haven't heard anything at this point. I'm sure they'd do an exclusive figure, but I'm not sure if there's anything to do at this point, the Firehouse has all the essential stuff + that Stay Puft figure for Dimensions is coming. We're already getting a mini-ECTO-1 in the Dimensions level pack. Edited October 26, 20159 yr by just2good

We're already getting a mini-ECTO-1 in the Dimensions level pack. Ah yes, I forgot about the Dimensions Pack, but yes, lets hope there is some exclusive figure of some sort.
October 26, 20159 yr If there were one, I think Walter Peck would be the most obvious candidate for a new character. My next choice would be a different version of one of the other characters already present, like Dana Barrett in a different outfit from whatever she's in in the big set (so that we'd have Dana as Dana and Dana as the Gatekeeper), for example.
October 26, 20159 yr Could it be a burnt Stay Puft minifig? (Since they already have the mold from Dimensions) Walter Peck would be great as well.
October 26, 20159 yr yeah~ the expectation is getting higher and higher!! I do hope to see some pictures soon or at least any leaked pics of this set!!! can't waaaaait!!! Edited October 26, 20159 yr by jaesroe
October 26, 20159 yr It would definitely be Walter Peck. He's the only integral character not in the set. I'd enjoy Gozer's first form, too. Edited October 26, 20159 yr by 8BrickMario
October 26, 20159 yr Author I wish, I haven't heard anything at this point. I'm sure they'd do an exclusive figure, but I'm not sure if there's anything to do at this point, the Firehouse has all the essential stuff + that Stay Puft figure for Dimensions is coming. We're already getting a mini-ECTO-1 in the Dimensions level pack. Flawed logic because we already have 2 micro versions of the Mystery Machine - the Dimensions version and the 28-piece version given out at the Scooby Doo Mystery Tour. Staying on topic, Walter Peck sounds a lot more right. I wonder if we're going to get anything else? Also, the July release date isn't so far-fetched if it is the real date. Look at it this way: 1. July is close to Halloween which assumes TLC would release this to give Halloween fans something extra special besides what small seasonal set they'll release. 2. July is the time the all-female movie comes out. Yes this obviously isn't their HQ but... 3 of the original living Ghostbusters make their cameos as well as Dana Barret. Since these original cast members are being used to get Ghostbusters fans interested in this film (which has been muddled with hate since it was announced) makes sense to sell the HQ when everyone is thinking "Ghostbusters" anyway. 3. January is only 2ish months away. How many times has TLC released a set without at least 4 months promotion, especially one this big? If it does come out in January it's definitely a last-minute thing given the set is not officially recognized by TLC yet and third-party retailers and insiders have leaked it.
October 26, 20159 yr Another piece of evidence is that all we know is a set no. and a leaked description. A January release? We'd have pics around now.

Not just Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and Sigourney Weaver, but Annie Potts as well - all the surviving core cast members except Rick Moranis, who retired from screen acting many years ago. I've been wondering whether there might be any sets based on the new movie(s). Come to think of it, there could conceivably be a promo polybag or two based on that - like, buy the classic original Firehouse HQ, and get a free member or two of the new team. Hey, you never know...
October 26, 20159 yr I was thinking of the Vigo painting and a Vigo figure. Maybe a dancing toaster or a Twinkie?
October 27, 20159 yr Another news and hopefully the actual photos! http://www.ew.com/article/2015/10/27/lego-ghostbusters-firehouse-photos

October 27, 20159 yr It looks really nice. Can't wait until January. As I'm saying this, Ghostbusters 1 is on in the background. Spooky.
