"I think this building should be condemned." Ghostbusters' Fire House

[CREG Customs]

Repaint and upgrade of the old Ghostbusters Kenner Playset. The ideal here is for a display piece for the Matty Collector GB Line.

Took a break from 1/6 to do this one. Been working on it on and off for a few months now.

Every part painted. Plastic blue pole replaced with an aluminium pole permanently installed. Texture added to the front of the building to give the concrete feel all around.

Water puddles on the roof and the downspout as well.

Light controls are mounted on Velcro just above the door. Runs on 4 AA batteries. 18 mini LEDs light all three floors.

Thanks for checking it out!

One word comes to mind...SUPERB! Mine's long gone, and of course, after seeing yours...wishin' I'd kept it!

I love it.

That's great--I wish more people modded old toys. This is a perfect example of how awesome you can make a $10 flea market item!

I call this rediscovery of a vintage toy. As I can see is perfect for the 6" figures

I got £40.00 for one of these on a carboot about 4 years ago.
Some guy started a conversation about how they were collectors items and it perked other peoples interests.
I didn't have a clue and just wanted to get rid of it. I still see them around for alot cheaper now so I'm not sure who the guy was but he made me some money. :

Awesome job on this , makes me miss mine.
