I am torn between building pet shop or detective office. Discounting the near EOL factor, which should I build?

The Pet Shop is boring, so go with the Detective's Office

 

I always dismantle first.  It's the only way that works for me. 

There are times when leaving parts built is a lot more convenient.  I kept some of the repetitive builds on the top of my used SSD instead of breaking up hundreds of 1x1 tiles and plates, building each once was enough.

I second that, the Pet Shop is boring! Detective Office all the way!

I just put together Set #60083 snow plow and it's a cool little build. 

Daughter built the grand hotel from the what did you buy thread earlier.  No QFLL'ing that one  (unfortunately).  Took her about 4 hours

dumb mispell

Pet Shop is the better Build in my opinion though thats probably because it reminded me of less fun build of my favourite set Green Grocer (it has quite a few similar technique though green grocer was better at execution petshop was about giving as much as possible for $150). thought Im going to say if I were to rank the current market modulars.

1. Parisian Restaurant (cuz its smexy, unique and rlly fun to build) 

2. Pet Shop (2 Completely separate buildings great exterior petshop building is complete but the apartment is defiantly lacking interior wise except for floor 1 That bath was genius) 

3. Detective Office (I liked this set but it was simple also wish they where separate buildings as well still love the water tower though great technique and the roof design on the hair dresser building)

4. Palace Cinema (Interior is really lacking, exterior is alright though It takes to much from the Chinese theatre in LA wish it was more unique. the build was alright as well)  

I built the UCS Tie Interceptor 7181 last night and I have to say it turned out better than I expected. I'm still not a huge fan of the blue pieces but it's a pretty cool set overall.

Just ordered this from eBay and decided to put it together this weekend - was worth every penny!  REALLY looking forward to CMF 14 to add to this - was actually one of the reasons I decided to finally purchase the set.  Also, the sand green bricks are awesome, I think it's a great color.

Added the Black Pearl to the fleet today

I absolutely love the Black Pearl and am currently trying to find one used myself. I did not get this set when it came out because I was deploying a lot at the time.

 

BP and QAR. Imperial Flagship is up next.

Do you think it would make a good modular? I was considering picking up a few on sale and trying it out. I love the look but am not sure it would fit in with the other modulars.

its a facade the way it is so would definitely have to have 2.  It does have the removable floors like a modular so height wise I think it could pass, especially with the newer ones seeming smaller in size.

My friend who has built all the modulars looked at it after building it and said if you had 2 it could possibly work as modular type building

wasn't done

My wife, who you may recall stole my Scooby Doo Mystery Machine out of my hands the other day and proclaimed it "mine!" (her's), built it today.

My only revenge was that there were 23 (!) stickers to apply.  She was not happy about it.  But, it's a cool little build.

My son built the Avengers Tower today and I helped along the way. It's a solid little set that has quite a bit going for it.  Lots of play features and a good centerpiece to the new Avengers sets.  We also built the new Quinjet a couple weeks ago, but I think he'll play with this a bit more.  I have a loose and one boxed Hydra Fortress Smash that I'll combine for a big fortress.  I'm also going to open a Loki's Escape, since we don't have a Loki to fight yet.

Next up after I build my Detolf Cabinets, UCS AT-ST.

Imperial Flagship. Huge ship, great build techniques. I thought this was going to be the center piece of the armada, but much to my surprise next to the QAR and BP it shrinks quite a bit and QAR steals the show.
