Thread updated with official pics from Lego's facebook page.

 

------------------

side note:  Makes me wonder if this film is set on the 1990s or so.  I'll look for more details to identity time period.

The Ecto rebootcar appears to be a 1984 Cadillac Superior Hearse model.

I found some film still pics of the car on the web and Paul's tweet and replies about his lego comment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Look like Lone Ranger  will have some company in the clearance bin soon.....

Only difference is I don't think Lone Ranger ever held back the growth of another set...

moment of "thanks" for the GB crew and their car we grew up watching.

I don´t see why it should if you mean the OT Ghostbusters franchise. SW Ep 1-3 and TFA have boosted interes in OT Saga items.....

Looks so fresh for a car that's 130 years old! :-D

honestly, everything about this film is looks suspiciously ridiculous especially the attempts to tap into our 1980s nostalgia.

. hope i'm wrong.

How long do people think we have to pick up the Ecto-1 with the announcement of the female version of the car?

Mind blown.

You mean like star wars? The masses love rehashes, sequels and prequels. Occasionally we get fresh movies like Inception, inside out, and avatar.

is the new one smaller than 21108? Maybe we don't need to remove all the desk to fit inside the GBHQ. 

doesn't look like it is smaller.

Per this article, set to be released July 1st, $59.99 MSRP:

To be honest, this demon thing looks great!

I was also quoting someone in my reply. 

I prob wouldn't compare Star Wars, Star Trek, Vacation, Creed, etc... to this film as it is going for something entirely different than the other films. I applaud Paul F for being diff. Hope it works for him. 

Well time to finally buy the idea's Ecto-1 after seeing this monstrosity   

Pretty cool,

Chris Hemsworth joins the club of having more than 1 lego figure character. I forget if someone actually has 3. I know J Depp has at least 2 as does Helena Bonahm Carter, Harrison Ford, Chris Pratt, Ian McCellan and probably many others.

So is 8-wide the new standard for LEGO vehicles now? 10-wide for trucks? I can see an entire update of the City line coming up soon ..... just like they went from 4-wide to 6-wide 10 years ago .... I like it though, the car looks cool and I like the mirrors (but those might have been done like this on the original ECTO-1 already, don't shoot me for not fact-checking).

I'd like to think that the horde has already acquired their quota of 21108... But its most likely that we'll see Ecto-1s being bought at an alarming rate in turn prompting Lego to keep it in production longer than expected.

There's spoilers in the photos of the minifigs.  The article makes a guess at something, but doesn't spoiler anything.  At least, they don't claim to have any extra knowledge.

After seeing this I cannot see 21108 retiring anytime soon. 

Doors on the OG Ecto would have been nice.
