Did you do any internal bracing?  I found that was very helpful in
order to build sturdy sculptures.  I used up a lot of the less
important colors on internal bracing.

As for what to do with the rest - green and red are the Christmas
colors, so you could maybe do something with that theme - but of
course, it's not that time of year.  Another poster suggested a frog
character - how about Kermit The Frog?

I bought 12 3033 tubs, and used most of them on my Pikachu and
Bulbasaur models.  But I have a lot of pieces left over, mostly small
red ones.
