Locutus001 Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 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). 1 Quote

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. 1 Quote

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: (ad received by mail) Quote

cissi Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Firehouse-Headquarters-75827 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. Quote

rcdb1984 Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 Pics are out on Lego Facebook. The inside isn't as impressive as I was hoping. I'll still get one, but meh. 2 Quote

Crustybeaver Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 It's pretty cool how it opens up but it's lacking in detail, especially when compared to the Kwik-E-Mart 1 Quote
asharerin Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 (edited) 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. Edited November 11, 2015 by asharerin 2 Quote
LegoEdison Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 how to park the car inside? seem like we need to remove the desk on the ground floor? Quote
Ciglione Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 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. 1 Quote

Ed Mack Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 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. Quote
santaends Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 Investment wise, buying this on release is no go. But I'm still a brick lover at heart <3. 5 minutes ago, Ed Mack said: Dynamite box.

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