Great set
" I purchased this when it first game out. Let me tell you this guy fails to disappointment. It's not really hard, It's just that it can get a little crammed with all of those bendable tubes. I collect the Technic sets and this set fits perfect with the others. the three switches in the back handle the arm and bucket. It turns around manually and the front blade (Bulldozer) and supporting arms (end) are manual. It's also cool the cabin lifts up as well. The Volvo EW160 is well worth the money, and I can guarantee this is worth getting.

A dream come true
" I was disappointed when I found out this set originally wasn't going to be created. A few months later here we are. I somehow typed the word Ghostbusters Firehouse in google, and the first thing I saw was. Firehouse HQ. I clicked on it and I was stunned beyond belief. After being turned down on cuusoo. It was somehow revived. I couldn't wait for this to be released. The Ecto-1 would have its new home. I saved, and a little Xmas money help, I brought this to my home. Too bad when I went to the lego store, they sold out within an hour of opening, I picked up the architecture ones anyways, but I went and ordered it online. Be careful when building, the siding of the second floors and the windows siding is pages and pages of back and forth and can get tedious. The most notable feature was someone had a soft spot when designing this. If you look on one of the stickers that goes behind Venkman's desk on the bottom floor, there is five letters that say R.I.P. H. R. (Harold Ramis) in the bottom left hand corner. I have over 2,500 worth of legos and this is clearly one of the best sets yet. The library ghost is cool. Ask the ghost why she blew her nose all over the library cards, and there is Slimer. He's an ugly little spud isn't he? but what happened to the Scoleri Brothers and Walter Peck? The dark rooms, where the fire started in the second movie, the pink slime on the sidewalk part, and Vigo on a computer screen is notable features of the second movie on this set. I feel safe if there is ever ghosts in my house, because the ghostbusters are there, but what about the Twinkie? Props to the man who designed this, well done my friend, well done.

Small but good
" I think the mine loader is an interesting one. He is really short though as figured, but his features make this product worth it. The red tank he grabs kinda reminds me of a hazardous waste tank. The only negative was the price. I would of priced it at 30-40 due to the limited features, kind of wish the turn gray knob didn't stick out too much. All manual, with driving it and lowering the lift and manually opening the grabber. 30-40 may have seemed like a right price, but I still like him.

Good product
" This was a good product by Lego Architecture and I'm the first review. When you start to build it, you would thing that it will be small or what the yellow pieces are for. Those go in the WTC. I missed out on the Empire State building, so this is a nice replacement. I had to have this one on hold, otherwise I wouldn't of gotten one of them, the day they came out. I picked up all four of the new ones. I recommend all of them. They don't take very long to put together either.

Bigger than shown
" Not going to lie, I thought this guy was going to be small. I put him together and not only did it look real cool with the features, but his size was a lot bigger than imagined. He is fairly big for his price. The price made it fairly reasonable. He took me about 4-5 hours to build, and he is just fun to play with.
