I'd vote for another "Best Alternate Model" category (and not just 'cause • I
won it in Pat's contest.)  Alternate models require a lot of creativity, • and
offer other fans the opportunity to build the model after purchasing just • one
set.

Could this be taken a step further?  I think offering categories for • certain
models would be nicer.  Pitting an alternate desert skiff model against an
alternate Tie/Y-Wing wouldn't be competitive.


I don't know about that.  Pat Justison picked my T-16 from the Snowspeeder
set over both an A-Wing and a B-Wing made from the X-Wing set.  I'm not sure
I like the T-16 as a model as much as the A- or B-wings, but it was a much
more difficult project, and I would guess Pat's choice reflected that.

Most very small sets are difficult to make good alternates from, though.  I
tried to make a flash speeder from the land speeder set, and I couldn't even
get it to where my son would say "Oh, yeah, that's a flash speeder from EP1."
