For LEGO's latest Cuusoo design contest, builder Brent Waller decided to commemorate the nostalgic 80s film Ghostbusters by building a gigantic version of the infamous villain, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man is one of the most famous villains the Ghostbusters team ever had to face. While the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man seems adorably cute and cheerful, he used his lumbering size to reek havoc across the city. This LEGO version of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man was constructed using over 1,800 LEGO pieces and looks remarkably like the film version. This Ghostbusters LEGO set even comes with a miniature building, the Ghostbuster vehicle and all four of the Ghostbusters to recreate the climatic cinematic scene with Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
