Lego Ghostbusters ECTO-1

Lego Ghostbusters ECTO-1
Lego Ghostbusters ECTO-1

 
This Lego Ghostbusters ECTO-1 (10274) building kit will surely become a classic. In the latest Ghostbusters movie "Afterlife" released in 2021, the ECTO-1 comes back to life. 

This 2352-piece set is a perfect building experience for any Lego or Ghostbuster fan. Our grandson Bobby is a huge Ghostbusters fan along with his love for building Legos. Bobby has been building Legos since he was a little guy. 

Our local library sponsored a Lego club that would meet once a week. The kids spent an hour each week with huge sets of Legos. They were able to create whatever they could imagine. I think this is where Bobby developed his love for Legos. 

Our daughter got him the ECTO-1 for Christmas last year, and needless to say, he was excited. I believe the ECTO-1 is one of his favorites in his Lego collections. Bobby spent about a week assembling the ECTO-1 and has it proudly displayed on a table in his room.


Lego Ghostbuster ECTO-1 Features:

  • The ECTO-1 measures 8 inches high 18 inches long, and 6 inches high, and is packed with authentic details.
  • It is equipped with a working steering wheel
  • A curved windshield
  • A trapdoor with a ghost trap
  • An extending gunner seat
  • A moving ghost sniffer
  • Ghostbuster decale
  • Many other authentic details
The Lego Ghostbusters ECTO-1 is a perfect gift idea for any Ghostbuster or Lego fan and is a piece that any Ghostbuster or Lego fan will be proud to display in their home or office.

A Fun Fact: The word Lego is an abbreviation of two Danish words "leg godt" meaning, "play well". The Lego Group was founded by Ole Kristiansen in 1932 and is currently owned by Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen his grandson.

Lego Dimensions Starter Pack Wii U

Lego Dimensions

 The Lego brand has been around since I was a kid. I remember all of my classic Lego building sets. Now Lego has moved into the video world. So now your children can enjoy the same creativity with the adventure of the Lego Dimensions Starter Pack Wii U. Or, a starter pack for a different console.

 Let the fun begin as your children will journey through many different worlds and team up with many different allies to defeat the evil Lord Vortech. The age for Lego Dimensions is 7 to 14 years old. But, I can assure you if you're a serious gamer this game is a fun adventure for the entire family young and old alike. 

Only two players can play simultaneously while the rest of the family is watching and cheering. The starter pack includes a game panel to bring your characters into the game and to life. Characters include Gandolf from the "Lord of the Rings", Wildstyle from "The Lego Movie", Batman and the Batmobile, and a Lego portal to build and set on the panel.

 When you get your starter pack, the first thing you will have to do is build a gateway to a portal. You must build the characters like in any other "Lego Dimensions" pack. Each character also comes with a mini panel that you set on the original game panel so the game knows what characters are supposed to be in the game. 

Now, I really don't know what all this means. But our grandsons Bobby and Tyler know exactly what to do. What makes this game so much fun for me? Watching them play they are so excited to explain everything about the adventure. The Lego Dimensions Starter Pack is a thumb, and kid-approved by Bobby and Tyler.

We happen to own the Wii U game console. If you don't have a Wii U game, don't worry—Lego makes the starter packs for the Xbox One, Play Station 4, Xbox 360, and Play Station 4 Pro. So, Lego has certainly got you covered.

Wait! We're not finished yet, there is so much more to Lego Dimensions. Now that you have your starter pack it's time to expand the adventure. There are so many more options for fun with Story Packs, Level Packs, Team Packs, and Fun Packs.

 All of these additions are not game console-specific. So, Once you have your very own starter pack you can choose any of these to expand the fun.

These are the two Story Packs that Bobby and Tyler currently have. Fantastic Beasts and Ghostbusters the fun now is that you can add any character to any game and in any combination. This makes for some endless fun and adventure.
