New LEGO BrickHeadz 2018: some official visualsThe server that hosts the official visuals has again been updated and there are now some LEGO BrickHeadz sets expected for early July including two Star Wars references and the Ghostbusters pack featuring Peter Venkman and Slimer recently presented by LEGO on social networks:

  • 41619 Darth Vader (104 pieces - 9.99 €)
  • 41620 Stormtrooper (124 pieces - 9.99 €)
  • 41622 Peter Venkman & Slimer (228 pieces - 14.99 €)

We now know how Slimer will be presented on its support with a visual of the transparent piece whose mission will be to create the illusion of the ectoplasm floating.

Regarding the two Star Wars references, Darth Vader and a Stromtrooper, the rather enthusiastic collector that I am of the products of this range remains unmoved here in front of these two figures.

LEGO Ghostbusters BrickHeadz: 41622 Peter Venkman & Slimer

It's BrickHeadz Day at LEGO: After the announcement of three packs of Harry Potter figures, here is now a Duo Pack (ref. LEGO 41622) under Ghostbusters license which features Peter Venkman and Slimer (Bouffe-tout in the French version).

The presentation visual above shows Slimer levitating, I wonder what solution LEGO will use to keep this visual effect.

It is not known at this time if all members of the Ghostbusters team will be entitled to a LEGO minifigure. This Duo Pack will be available from June 1st.

Exit Brick Friday, the LEGO version of Black Friday, and make way for Cyber ​​Monday, the last day to take advantage of a 20% reduction on some LEGO boxes and get the 40254 Nutcracker set free from € 65 purchase.

The "surprise" set of the day is the reference 75827 Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters.

Regarding the LEGO Boost 17101 Creative Toolbox set, the good deal of the moment is rather at amazon where this box is displayed at the price of 110.49 €. Even with a 20% discount, LEGO is therefore not competitive on this product.

The sets on sale today:

Ghostbusters 75828 Ecto-1 & 2

You bought the set Ghostbusters 75828 Ecto-1 & 2 ? If so, I have a quick question for you: The minifig of Jillian Holtzmann at left below, how do you find it in real life? Where do you find it in the box?

I read and re-read dozens of reviews and other ultra-detailed infomercials from this set all over the internet and no one seems to mention this version of the character ...

Yet it is present on the official visuals, whether on the product sheet on the LEGO Shop (image above) or in the visual gallery uploaded by LEGO on Facebook to announce the release of the set (left image below).

The minifigure on the right, also present on the official visuals, is however well in the box, but the other face of the supplied face does not include the glasses of the visual on the left.

So I'll ask you the question again: Who has the alternate version of Jillian Holtzmann, with his personalized torso (the collar is unique and the badge clearly mentions the character's initials) and his golden glasses? WHO ?

(Special thanks to @MRGNDRFFR for asking LEGO the question on Twitter...)
