Want to build townhouse row, anyone want Pet Shop store?

Post by jozero »

Hello,

I'd like to build a row of 3 townhouses. The townhouses come with the Pet Shop Modular building. Is anyone interested in buying the Pet Shop side ?

One person doesn't have to buy all three extra Pet Shop buildings, let me know if you want just one.

I'll buy them from the US so the cost will be $150 for the set. I'll eat most the tax and extra costs. I'm looking to sell the Pet Shop side for $80.

This is the set :

thanks,

Jot

I'd be interested assuming I get the instruction manuals for the whole set as well?

What are your thoughts on the minifigs? I don't care for the painter or the bicycle.

The female I definitely want. The kid's hair I would also like.

Ah yes, forgot about the mini figs. Yup I'd appreciate getting the bicycle. You can have most of the mini figs and the manuals.

I'm pretty sure each set comes in different sealed bags. I won't open the Pet Shop side bags.

Thanks. Let me know if you are interested. I likely won't pick up the sets until some time in February.

Hi Randell,

I'll likely get the sets within the next 2 weeks. Then I'll email everyone and arrange drop offs.

Thanks !

If you still have one of those available, I would take one for $80. I don't need the instructions, just the bags with the pieces.

If you haven't bought yet, note that Toys R Us (US) is having a BOGO 50% off sale (in store only for the Pet Shop at the moment, but keep checking back!)

Here is the link: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.js ... d=12066406

Thanks for the tip. I've never successfully managed to buy a modular during one of those sales.

The family plan to go down to Seattle this last weekend fell apart, I'll just go by myself likely this weekend. Thanks for waiting everyone.

Sorry for the late update. I was to embarrassed to post last week as my Seattle plan was canceled yet again. However I went yesterday so finally now have *two* (not three) PetShop sets. Please send me a direct private message and I'll arrange drop offs. The boxes are sealed, when I meet you I'll open them up then and we can split it. That way you can be sure there are no parts missing.

As an aside, I saw the Town Hall Modular yesterday. I've got to say I'm not a fan at all. Something is off with the overall colouring, the columns on the front, and just general design. If I ever do get it I'll likely just turn it into an apartment block.

Sorry jozero I have to disagree with you on the Town Hall. It is way better than the Pet Shop in my opinion.

I'm a big fan of the Town Hall as well. Without trashing the Pet Shop, I would agree that the Town Hall is better. On the other hand, I would trash the Grand Emporium, all the modulars are far better than that one!

I just saw Market Street :P not a fan of that at all.

I got 1 PetShop from Jozero. Many thanks!! I built it just today and was a ton fun. I quite like it alot, especially the apartment unit above the shop.

TownHall is massive in size compared to my PetShop.. I will be making TownHall a bit smaller (thinner) It should look more like a church (with some mods too eh :))

Hey Roger, if you're making your Town Hall smaller, and have some bricks left over, lemme know if you would be willing to part with them. I want to make my Town Hall much bigger, and while I plan on picking up two of the set, I will probably still need more of the parts.

Yeah, I figured that's what you'd say, makes the most sense!

I'm doing it with all the modular buildings, making them more realistic in size! My Cafe Corner is already 4x the size of the stock Cafe Corner, and I'm thinking of adding a 4th floor above ground and a basement!

I actually like the Grand Emporium as well ! Maybe its just the colour and the columns from the 80s that are throwing me off on the City Hall.

Thanks so much Jozero! I really enjoyed building the PetShop. Just last night I finished building the German Townhouse!

Roger, I really like the style of your German rowhouse, it is missing a little something... texture or greeblies but the overall look works well for me.

Perhaps the humour is a bit black, but I love the way you changed the pet shop into a 'Meat' shop. Did you change the interior as well or are all the pets still inside?
