Firehouse Headquarters

Firehouse Headquarters 75827 is the Ghostbusters' base of operations, released in 2016 as one of the largest sets in the theme. At 4,642 pieces and with 9 minifigures, it sits firmly among the bigger builds in the catalogue. The mix of light bluish grey, dark red, black and white already hints at the old brick firehouse look before a single brick goes down.

Description

Nine minifigures across one building

With 9 minifigures included, this set can populate several scenes across the building at once rather than centring on a single character. That fits its scale: the firehouse works as a stage for the wider cast rather than a display piece for one figure. Anyone browsing the parts list on this page will also find the accessories tied to each minifigure, useful for checking exactly what comes with the set before building.

A multi-level interior, not just a facade

At 4,642 pieces, this is a large build, and a good portion of that count goes into the interior rather than the exterior walls. Multiple floors and rooms mean the finished model rewards opening it up as much as looking at the outside. Builds of this size generally take considerably longer than smaller sets, so it suits builders comfortable with a longer project rather than a single quick session. That scale of interior detail is unusual for a set built primarily around an exterior facade.

A brick facade built from four colours

Dark red and white form the brick exterior, while black and light bluish grey cover windows, fire escapes and other technical details. That relatively restrained palette, for a set this size, gives the building a coherent, period look rather than a scattered mix of colours. It reads clearly as an older city building, matching the source material the set is based on. The result feels closer to a real city landmark than a generic backdrop, which suits a set built around a well-known film location.

587 unique parts for builders and collectors

587 unique elements is a substantial variety, most of it concentrated in the furniture, equipment and small interior details rather than the outer shell. That makes the set a useful source of parts for anyone building their own projects, since many of these shapes and colours rarely show up in smaller sets. The full breakdown on this page lists every colour and quantity before the set gets built or parted out.
