I picked up a copy of 10176 on sale at SAH. It’s a nice set, but I really bought
it for the parts. Anyway, I wasn’t all that interested to build the castle, so
I set out to use the parts therein to make my own MOC, I came up with this:
The Smithbot

|
I thought that was cool how a bot/hardsuit could be made using parts from a
Castle set (and it was the first time I was able to use the rubberband holder in
a MOC). Looking at all the remaining parts, I decided to see what else I could
make. Little did I know that I would end up with a total of 13 MOCs, but it was
a good experience for me, as I had never tried creating an “alternate build”
from a set). Here they are, in the order they were built:
The Royal Smokehouse

| | Poop

| | Wash Day

|
| | Cruise Ship

|
| | Warship
| | 
|
| | Mega-Satellite
| | 
|
| | a Fireplace/Forge
| | 
|
| | Ye Outhouse
| | 
|
| | Thespian
| | 
|
| | No Helmet
| | 
|
| | Meef Tower
| | 
|
and...
The Stone
| | 
|
Yes, they were all made from parts of this set, using only the remaining parts
after each MOC was completed.
Here is a group shot of all of these MOCs:
This was truly a very fun experience (and challenge) for me. If you haven’t
built an alternate MOC from a LEGO set, I would encourage you to give it a try.
