#ECTO 1A MODEL KIT INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL#

Comes new in a manufacturer shrink-wrapped box.

Who ya gonna call The kit was last produced in 2012 and is skill level 2.

Options for Li-Ion and USB wall adapter Įverything else, I think I’d second Jay’s recommendations. This plastic assembly model kit includes more than 90 precision parts, highly-detailed equipment rack and decals for both the Ecto-1 and the Ecto-1A.

Dash lighting would be very cool, instrument panels even cooler!.

I love the idea of a dimmer, or perhaps even UV interior light, with the option to disable - a lot of kits/models I’ve seen have a blazing bright interior light which is neither necessary nor aesthetic.

I assume you also went with the original suspension, shocks, brakes, brake pads, lining, steering box, transmission, rear-end, rings, muffler, and wiring.

The outermost of the dual headlights are steady on, whereas the two inner headlights alternate in a slow fade when emergency lighting active I love it so much that you gave it the original paint job.

The white strobes on the grill alternate back and forth, each rapidly flashing twice, about one second apart.

The white beacon on top is present in the film as a small strobe (1-2 sec interval) /rebates/2fen-us2fproduct2fghostbusters-ecto-1-10274&.

Sniff out the ghosts Roof rack has tracking antenna to monitor psychokinetic energy. Paranormal perfection The largest and most detailed LEGO® ECTO-1 model ever. Forgive me if already discussed, but I would just add: Building Instructions Features On the hunt Sirens blaring, proton pack charging and ghost traps at the ready, the Ghostbusters ECTO-1 is back in action.

This build was phenomenal, and I’m very excited to add a BrickStuff light (*and sound!) kit.Īs a purist myself, Jay has some great notes here and the Haynes manual is probably a great resource also.

So.what features (beyond the obvious!) would you like to see in a light and sound kit for this amazing model? Let us know in the comments below, and thank you! If all goes well, I'm hoping to have pre-orders up on the site before Christmas, with delivery likely beginning in March 2021.

Since we already have the base control circuitry and sound for the Ecto-1, it should be relatively easy to expand the kit to cover this new model. This is the 1/25 Scale GHOSTBUSTERS Ecto-1a plastic model car kit by AMT. We're currently testing designs for the huge rooftop lightbars and large spotlights- stay tuned for more details.

It's really one of the kits I'm most proud of designing, so when we learned of an even bigger, cooler Ecto-1 headed our way, we knew we had to up our game and rise to the challenge. Our light and sound kit for the Ideas Ecto-1 from 2014 has consistently been one of our best-selling kits, and it has more features than any other kit available. The Ecto-1 returns to help the Busters save the day once again. Some minor work then - it wasn't too bad, it looks like the basic frame shape is there and they just added bits on for the second film.Well, what an amazing model! Six years after the release of the LEGO Ideas Ecto-1- in our humble opinion, one of the best vehicle sets ever released by LEGO- the company has taken aim squarely at our pocketbooks with a huge new set: the Creator Expert Ecto-1 (item #10274). Next is a reference picture from the link I posted earlier (attributed to Pop Culture Geek ). When I sand I paint first to see where it is flush or indented - you can see small paint marks where I went a bit overboard with the grinder - I'll see how they look when I prime it.

I used a rotary tool with a diamond bit to grind these off then sanded off with 60,120,600, then a wet sand with 1200. Next up was the roof - I needed to remove the mounting points for the digital matrix displays (as they will not be on ecto1). I need to put some proton packs in there - I will have to build these! Built the cockpit & gave a once-over with the airbrush. The two vehicles have a number of glaring differences, despite AMTs assertion that the Ecto-1A kit can be used to build Ecto-1 with minimal modification and parts omissions.
