Did anyone see this? A ghostbusters HQ set is rumored to be coming in 2016.

http://www.groovebricks.com/lego-ghostbusters-firehouse-hq-75827-coming-in-2016/

LEGO Ghostbusters fans are in for a real treat next year! Over on YouTube, Just2Good – one of the most reliable sources when it comes to early LEGO set news – has states that there will be a LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse HQ set coming in 2016!

According to him, the set’s number will be 75827 and it will contain a whopping 4,600 pieces! Obviously, with such a high number of pieces comes a high price to pay. Just2Good stated that the Firehouse HQ will retail for a total of $350.00 USD. As for the release date, we should see this bad boy hitting the shelves on January 1st, 2016.

In regards to the actual set, we still dont know the finer details. We don’t know exactly which minifigures will be included, however, we do know that it will be based off the original film rather than the new movie that’s coming out next year.

Though details are lacking, I’m pretty sure many of you are quite hyped for this new set. As always, we should expect more details to come out the closer we get to the month of January. Perhaps, we might even get an early tease/look at the set at this year’s New York Comic Con which is going to be held between October 8-11.

The Swiss guy who made the Lego Ideas Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters made a statement on his page about the very similar looking new Lego 75827 set:

My Statement on the release of the Lego Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters

The idea for a Ghostbusters headquarter in LEGO-form wasn't new when his Ideas project started. The designer of Ghostbusters' Ecto-1 used the firehouse as a backdrop for selling his project on LEGO Ideas, too. So it's not like the idea in itself is very original.

It's interesting to see that there's still a Ghostbusters HQ on Ideas that can be voted for: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/89254.

If they bring out the new GB theme (IF) I hope they do not produce a set too similar to the haunted house...

I still have some of them and want them to appreciate a little more before I sell.

If there is another set the size of the scooby doo theme mainset it wouldn't be a problem I guess but with a HQ for 350 coming out in January and not yet a theme announced I'm staying cautious about a possible theme and sets...

If they do not bring out a GB theme I guess HH might appreciate even more.

(Please read in british accent: Dear beloved Mods: I was not sure where to post this. Feel free to move it to the HH thread if you think it is better suited for it).

Well I share the same fear and the fact that the HH has been used as a display set for the serie 14 minifigs disturbs me a bit:

Well... if the new HH and new BttF Town Hall will come true the long-term investor will extinct.

I guess on the bright side I could finally build a HH city...

Page is out. I'm not 100% if it just happened today. Not sure where to post because the set is not in any specific category (under Exclusive).

Really a plan-looking thing to me... wouldn't have been an appealing set to me if not were for the fact it's a GB firehouse.

Ghostbusters HQ has its own thread

Pics are out on Lego Facebook. The inside isn't as impressive as I was hoping. I'll still get one, but meh.

So silly that it has a review when they haven't even built it yet...

 

 

It's pretty cool how it opens up but it's lacking in detail, especially when compared to the Kwik-E-Mart

I really love the box art. For me the inside is a complete fail. I have to remove the receptionist desk to park the ecto? The rest looks sparse compared to the original IDEAS design. Looks like these guys spent the last of their petty cash on....pizza? Ain't no way Peter is sliding down that pole holding a slice of pizza.

I will be buying this just to display the magnificent box art.

how to park the car inside? seem like we need to remove the desk on the ground floor?

 

I like the boxdesign alot. The set itself... I would like more if you could take apart the floors like with the modulars rather than this way. It is too expensive too. 

I would like to purchase 10 of these right now - Can someone please take my $$$

 Over 3 Gs on this? Certainly there are better sets to sink that kind of dough into......right now.

Man.. just take my money already.

Dynamite box.  I love how it opens.  Inside is solid, but not as good as the Ideas project.  Plays and displays well.  Overall, this set will do very well and will be stockpiled for years.

Investment wise, buying this on release is no go.

 

But I'm still a brick lover at heart <3.

Me too!! Reminds me of the good old HH. Only this is better because you can open it 2 ways.

This set looks awesome. I feel like because of the way the building is positioned in real life it should have opened up on the other side. That way you can put it on the proper corner of a modular block and still be able to open it. Maybe I'm being too nit picky. Or is this too large to fit with modular stuff anyway?
