As of September 26, 2021, our Eaglemoss 1:8 scale Ghostbusters Ecto-1 build is on hold again because the Issue 26 magazine for the next parts shipment is out of stock. Currently, there is no ETA when it will be available.

1:8 scale Ghostbusters Ecto-1 from Eaglemoss
Stages 91-94 Skipped
So, I have finally received Issue 25 containing Stages 91-94 of our Eaglemoss 1:8 scale Ghostbusters Ecto-1. However, Eaglemoss recommends not building these stages until the replacement Right Front Door arrives in Stage 107. I shared the email I received about this change in my Stages 91+ Delayed post. Therefore, I will skip publishing those articles until we can do it right the first time.
I am on track to receive the next shipments normally and we can build those in the interim. This should keep the build moving.
