We hope you agree that these improvements will make a great kit even better. You will also be able to remove the three floors on the main firehouse side with quick-connect cables. Of course, the factory-shipped sounds will be synchronized with the effects.Įven with all of these lights, the firehouse will maintain its playability as you will still be able to open up the firehouse. Then you can play them back using the remote. We'll ship a collection of effects on the sound module, and you can connect the module to your computer to add any MP3 file of your own. Working traffic light (our #1 customer request).

Radio frequency remote control with 50+ foot range.In addition to all of these new lights and effects, the new kit will also have: These will run synchronized effects along with the lights on the main side of the firehouse, creating a really amazing overall look. We've also added lights in the ghost trap, the toilet in the bathroom, and the flame in the upper lab. As you can see, we've improved this quite a bit with the new version:ġ2 total lights will be on this side, including seven additional ceiling lights (these were not in the original LEGO set, but we think they make a more balanced and authentic-looking firehouse). Looking at the other side of the firehouse, our previous kit had zero lights. For the 2020 version, I've penciled in 24 lights on this side. In our previous kit, this side of the firehouse had a total of 17 lights. There will be some really nice extension capabilities, specially on this side the ability to connect the three ghosts on their trans-clear bars and make them flicker and flash. Every red circle represents a light that will be lit. Here's a cutaway version of the main side. I needed to order some more parts to build everything up, so those will be here next week, but in the meantime I didn't want to leave you all hanging without any more details, so here are some screen captures of the GBHQ in LEGO Digital Designer that show what we're planning. I've come up with version 1 of the wiring and light placement. OK everyone, I've spent a lot of time this week reviewing the options for adding new lights and effects to the Firehouse HQ.
