The Ghostbusters Firehouse Like You’ve Never Seen It Before

German Lego expert Orion Pax has outdone himself with this amazing recreation of the Ghostbusters firehouse at N. Moore and Varick. (If you ever need someone to create a Lego masterwork for you, it’s pretty clear who you’re gonna call.) His description of the project: “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.”

Thanks to Greg for alerting me to it; he read about it on Uproxx, which came to it via Hiconsumption.

Seriously, go to his gallery for more photos!

  1. beautiful! So he makes this from other bits and pieces of lego kits? Or does he design specially made kits? Either way, it’s beautiful
