Created by ultimate Ghostbusters fan, Alexander Jones, the following LEGO model replicates the Ghostbusters headquarters in meticulous detail. The multi-layered replica took Jones over two months to complete and includes such details as Spengler's Lab, Venkman's office, kitchen, basement and of course, the iconic Ecto-1 parked in the garage.
Two months of endless hours watching Ghostbusters 1 & 2 + the real Ghostbusters Animated show i can truly say i know a lot about the building at North Moore Street, New York City. The movie set was in Los Angeles and is seen in plenty of other movies while the outside of the building is in NY. Planning on the interior was a bit confusing in the beginning, because of the fact that in the movies you always see only the garage and first floor. When i played the GHOSTBUSTERS game there are only two floors two, while on the outside the way the windows are you know there is the garage and two floors above. While watching the animated show i found out more about interior setups that would work with the model.So Egon´s lab is one of the agreements i had to make. The attention to detail with some of the features was very important to me and i spend hours on planning through over and over again. The overall weight is about 15 kg and it took me around 2 months building. By far my most detailed building with full interior. So i guess you know who you gonna call now ;)
Jones' LEGO creations are not just limited to the Ghostbusters, the talented designer has also constructed playsets based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Back to the Future, Star Wars and more.
