14. Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 – 556 pieces

are you going to call? The all-female cast of the 2016 version of Ghostbusters, of course! LEGO was genius to commemorate this modern reboot of a cult classic film in a set. Before you can start chasing ghosts and other supernatural phenomena, however, you will need to build the Ecto-1 car and the Ecto-2 motorbike. The Ecto-1 is instantly recognizable because of its signature white and red paint scheme pulled from the film, and because of the symbol of the Ghostbusters team on the side door. Next, take up your main minifigure heroines – Abby Yates, Erin Gilbert, Jillian Holtzmann and Patty Tolan – and their trusty male secretary, Kevin (all of whom are dressed in the signature Ghostbuster jumpsuits). Equip them with all the accessories they need to go ‘busting, including proton packs; a sidearm; an ion shield gun; a PKE (psychokinetic energy) meter; 2 traps; and a toolbox.

With your heroes assembled and prepared, you are finally ready to send them off on a merry adventure chasing a demon ghost named Mayhem. To make their journey easier (or to make storing and/or displaying this 556-piece set easier for you), pile the minifigures and all their gear inside the Ecto-1.

This set can be used for either play or display, depending on what kind of a LEGO fan and builder you are. It is even available on the official LEGO store for only $59.99.
