Personally, I think the detail parts are as important, or more important, than
the bulk bricks... although bulk bricks matter too!

What kind of detail parts? I'm hoping to put together a list that I can pass
along.

Mostly the modified plates and bricks that give you good greeblization.

The plate-modifieds for starters...

1x1 plate with clips (all three kinds),
1x2 plates with handles, with rods, with offset studs
1x2 tile with rod, 1x2 tile with one stud

The 1x2 grille tiles
The 1x2 grille bricks

1x2-1x4 brackets
1x1 brick with side stud (headlight or washing machine brick)
1x1 round brick, 2x2 round brick and plate, 2x2 macaroni brick

Rod system stuff.
The antennas and rods in various sizes

Stuff like that. Non theme specific but useful for detail.

More later if I have time, kinda heads down at my client right now (in NJ
actually, rather than MA where I thought I'd be the rest of the week)

(...) It is my unresearched opinion that the Bracket 1x2 - 1x4 2436 has NEVER appeared in dark gray. Perhaps that's a quality that could nudge it up in the list? Constantine (21 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)
