" I got this set for Christmas and have to say I haven't stopped playing with it for days, it has so many play features and it just looks great. Al's barber shop is so awesome the reflective mirror is awesome and the cookie smuggling feature is the best. The pool table is well built and looks great.i love the pull chain toilet oh though it is very hard to get a mini figure to be placed on the toilet.The detectives office is cool and comes with so many cool pieces and the desk is amazing. The third floor has some really cool details like the uni kitty tail. All up this has to be my favourite modular building out of them all. It has great playability and some awesome detail. "

" This set was fa-nominal, I fell in love with it as soon as i saw it on the back of the Lego magazine. The set had bright colors, use of fairly new bricks in new colors, and excellent building ideas that will be used to help with custom MOCs. The set was good for the prohibition era it was designed for. The detectives office and billiard room was a great representation of the time period and the barbershop seemed as though it was pulled right out of small town America. The story line for the modular excellent, It wasn't necessary but defiantly helped with the play-ability standpoint of the model.
the pros of the model are the excellent and bright color scheme, the printed elements on the windows, the era appropriate minfigure prints, the story, the pool sign, and the mirror.
The cons are that the mysterious woman in red doesn't have a separate dress piece, the barber shop was a little bigger so that it was easy to move the barrel full of sweets from one place to another.
all in all this set is defiantly one of the greatest arguably the best next to the Persian restaurant in design. But i will have to give it to the detectives office because it is more roomy and has a lot more going on in the set that meets the eye.
this set is a must have to put next to your other Lego modulars or if your just starting to get in to the modular buildings this set is great from new building tricks to fun new pieces i would recommend this set highly to any fan of Lego. "

" As a huge fan of the Expert line I was really looking forward to building this set as it plays up to my love of the Pulp detective novels.
i will say that for me the outside is quite striking, and there were lots of great pieces used in its construction but there was really anything new to learn in the construction of the set.
The added "story and play features" were unnecessary and for me took away from the model as a whole.
My list of grievances:
the walls in the alley that stop short of the top.
the stairs that are just open inside the barber shop
the pool hall being so undersized.
after building the first level and finding all my issues with the set i went back to the lego store and bought a second copy so i could make everything bigger and take away my issues with the set.
As the title states the Detective's Office is a Beautiful step backwards after last years Parisian Cafe. "
