    Having all but 2 modulars set up in a scene all together (except for MS and TH), when I look at the whole town the CG actually stands out as one of my favorite designs. No one seems to agree with that kind of opinion, because up close it’s a little more flawed than others, I guess. I don’t really see why everyone dislikes it so much. AS and GG are my other favorites. I was super disappointed when DD came out, because it looks like a Friends set on steroids, but I’ve grown to accept it. PC, to me, is the biggest eye sore of the series. It was the first modular I built, because my brother just left it at my house. I never really liked it. im excited to see what’s next tho.

    I don’t mind the studs, it’s Lego. i spent about a year and a half tacking on a grey baseplate or two to my BrickLink orders if the store had them cheap. And now I’m happy with it and glad I did. I had a plan at one point using the black minifigs stands to “pave” the roads, but I would need about 200 times as many as I have to do the whole city.

    i was using painted plywood for a while, but the grey base plates just look so much better.

    Neither, I just use dark bluish grey base plates and white/yellow tiles. Works fine for me.

    long story short...in 1980 I was 5, my parents never bought me many toys, somebody got me a 10” Boba Fett figure. My dad got drunk and broke his head off (he was an abusive dude) I was scared but a couple days later I asked him to fix it. He used scotch tape to try to fix it. That was probably my first lesson in being really disappointed in a person. So anyways, now he’s dead and I’ve been collecting all this Boba Fett stuff. It means a lot to me.

    I agree, I tried that at first, but it’s such a large ship it blocked the view of anything under or behind it. When I make a larger scene I’ll keep that in mind. I have almost no room for anything on land anymore, and it’s incredibly dense. It was my daughters Harry Potter table, but she grew out of it.

    this is a temporary set up of my collection. I plan on making something bigger soon with actually chronology probably.

    Thanks. not to wear out my welcome already, but could someone maybe direct me to where would be a cool spot to show off some photos of my SW collection? Or is that frowned upon here? I never know.

    I was kind of just joking. I don’t put clones with stormtroopers. Don’t take me seriously. I wouldn’t make my first post in the Star Wars forum just to piss people off. I just thought it would fit in a thread called “unpopular opinions”. I did think clones were the original stormtroopers and they definitely look like them (I don’t care what anyone says). But that’s cause I’ve never seen clone wars, but now I’d like to. After playing battlefronts 1 & 2, and buying several CW era LEGO ships, I feel like I need to update my knowledge of that part of the saga. Where is the best place to find all the seasons? I have Disney+ and Netflix and stuff, but it’s not as easy to find as I thought it would be.

    Hi, I’m new in the Star Wars forum, but I bet I have a really unpopular opinion.... Call me naive, but I was 5 when ESB came out, so I grew up with the OT story. I was in college when PT movies started coming out, So yeah, I wasn’t really too into it. All I remember was they introduced clones in one movie, then turned them into bad guys (killing all the Jedi) almost immediately. Within one movie anyways. So I always considered clones to be just older stormtroopers with sillier costumes. I missed out on the clone wars cartoons, cause I was an adult starting a career and a family. It wasn’t until this year that I learned thru lego that many people consider clones to be good guys, and that they’re so emphatically passionate about them. I just put them in with the storm troopers cause from more than 3 feet away they visually fit right in.

    About 5 years ago some friends from work pitched in and got me the Foxy Blocks gentlemen’s club (I forgot where they got it from but it was like $300). I always meant to build a modular building around it, but just haven’t gotten to it yet.

    I picked it up at the Lego store in Rochester, NY in 2017 when the jungle line came out. They had like 3 of them.

    I actually live a few blocks away from that Niagara Mohawk building, in Syracuse, NY. I always thought if I ever did try to create an MOC modular based on anything local, there’s no question that would be the first building I try.

    I agree, I really dig the ford gts. Also the orange mclaren for the SC line. I really love the entire city jungle line, and oddly enough one of my favorite sets of the year was Master Wu Falls (the only ninjago set I've ever gotten) because it fits perfectly with the rest of the jungle sets. I haven't gotten it yet (wife got it for me for Xmas) but I'm really looking forward to the Fishing Store. To answer the question though, my favorite set of the year has got to be Assembly Square. I thoroughly enjoyed putting that together with my wife, it probably took almost a week. Every time I glance at it in my layout I still get caught up in checking out all the details. I love the scale and the 48 stud wide footprint of it. It's not my all time favorite modular building, but I'm pretty sure it is my favorite set from 2017.
