Ghostbusters is a Achieved project on LEGO CUUSOO created by TeeKay on January 12th, 2012. The project attempts to create a LEGO construction set for the Ghostbusters. The project includes all four of the Ghostbusters and the ECTO-1. The project received several major support boosts which sped the project to 10,000 supporters.The project reached Achieved status on August 26th, 2013.
The Achieving of this project presented a new situation for LEGO Reviewers; they now had two similar concepts based off a single licensed IP in the same Quarterly Review period. This has caused a bit of speculation as to what will be decided about these projects.

Minifig-sized ECTO-1 model! Yep, they all fit inside! If this ever gets made into a real kit, it will get totally revamped by a professional LEGO builder—like all other Cuusoo projects so far!
Features of this current model: - fairly accurate representation of the real ECTO-1, as seen in the movie! - fits all four Ghostbusters! - the back opens up to allow quick access to the stretcher that holds the proton packs - extra equipment included! Two walkie-talkies, goggles for Ray, and a ghost trap!
Egon Spengler: The brains; never smiles Ray Stantz: The heart; childlike enthusiasm Peter Venkman: The mouth; confident and "charming" Winston Zeddemore: The guy who wasn't on the posters. Seriously, what's up with that.
Here's an idea: The Ghostbusters HQ PLAYSET!
If made, It should come with all four Ghostbusters (probably with different suits), as well as: - Walter Peck (shown above) - Dana - Janine - Gozer - and maybe more?
The inside of the HQ will have the storage facility, at least one fire pole, a desk for Janine, and plenty of other things you'll remember from the movie. Tons of stuff to play with!
Slimer would be great, but moulds are very expensive, so that part may never happen.

Can't thank you guys enough!
======================================================
In regards to LEGO's brand standards, Ghostbusters was released under the MPAA rating of PG, and LEGO has already released sets for the Indiana Jones franchise. The Temple of Doom is the reason there is a PG-13 rating, and The Last Crusade has a PG-13 rating. So there should be no problem making this set, or a series of sets, a possibility. There is mild profanity, but once again, there is profanity in all of the Indiana Jones films. There is no more sexual innuendo here than in the Indiana Jones films. Food for thought Cuusoo reviewers, should we make it to 10,000? :)

Congratulations on 5,000+ Supporters!
Congratulations on passing the halfway point on LEGO CUUSOO!
This is a strong project as it is focused on the iconic ECTO-1 from the Ghostbusters series, and would make a great commemorative set.
Best wishes as you continue on your journey to achieving 10,000 supporters on LEGO CUUSOO.
