Guest TabbyBoy Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I expect they'll be in a 3-for-2 sale soon, the abysmal Delorean was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 June 21st is close enough date to not have much effect, I would think, especially if Target still has them See, it is already back at SAH :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattyman Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Is there a x2 VIP offer in the uk? I haven't heard of one currently except on specific sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iromby Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Just bought two for 49.90 Euro each One for my birthday and one for investment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyman Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Happy birthday. I just sold the lego store freebie for 40 quid all in. Don't know if that was good or bad, but I paid nothing. Can always pick up another on the next birthday or another london lego store birthday. I'm lucky I have 4 stores within an 8 mile radius.

ufema Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I just finished this build a couple of days ago. It's a detailed look at assembling the model. I love that there are no sticker. I'm disappointed that a vehicle as big as an 80s station wagon can't fit all four figures with gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgeman Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I just took delivery of my 2nd and 3rd Ecto. I've been squawking so much about this kit I think it might be coming to me on Sunday as well (Father's Day). All 3, the balloon cart, and some Simpsons minifigs are my first Lego investments.

TheOrcKing Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Aside from a video explaining the process of how this became an official set, here is a gallery of a MOC based on the original vehicle that eventually became the Ecto-1 in the film built by Marcos Bessa who was a designer on the released Ideas set.via The Brick Fan How the fan model became a full sethttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br-csfJMph41959 Cadillac Millar-Meteorhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/marcosbessa/sets/72157645143093631/Edit:Took me a while to figure out I can only embed both the video and slideshow gallery by having the gallery link after the video one but not before otherwise it doesn't work.

jjsrt8 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Was at BrickWorld Chicago today and saw at BrickStuffs booth I believe it was had an Ecto 1 with lights in it was super cool hopefully someone got video or picture of it I forgot to. I asked if had a kit for it said no it took a lot of time and is fragile as it sat, but man was it sweet looking. He would get rich quick if he did do it id pay 75 to 100 for what I saw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the same thing, asked the same question and of course I got the same answer! He described how he had to drill holes and glue little LED's into the clear-blue 1X1 "triangle-slopes" used for the sirens and showed me some of the many holes he had to drill to fit all the wiring and hardware. It would be quite an undertaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be quite an undertaking. I already plan to modify my Ecto 1 to be much bette detail wise so lighting would not be an issue. I have a sound board ready to go in also that has the siren recorded on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorbasho Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Would anyone be interested in splitting the shipping costs with me for the custom printed arms? I can order multiple sets of arms and then divide the cost, plus $1.93 for reshipping the arms to you. The original shipping cost is flat rate and quite high (6.50 eur), so doing this will save a few bucks. 4 sets of arms (one set being 4 pairs of arms) would be around USD $21 each versus $25 originally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should prob get a group buy together. I just put them on the minifigs today and it looks cool. Really could've / should've been part of the set anyway.
