Buy extras.  :^)

I just bought my second X-wing set this week. I just love the new Star
Wars parts... lots of good parts.

I finished a new mecha last night. Turns out I have a wealth of red
slopes, so I decided to build a red mecha with black and gray highlights.

If you guys want some ineresting mecha designs to look at, check out
Front Mission 3.

Nice, rough, real-looking mecha. No pretty-boy stuff here.

took the longest to do - I just can't build something in the smooth Manga • or
BattleTech style.

What went into yours?  It looks like two X-Wings and a SnowSpeeder to • me, from
the cowlings around the arms and legs and the cab window.  It's those • that
really give your model its style, but I don't want to break up or mix my • Star
Wars models.

(...) Man, those are sweet. You gotta browse around to see them, and unfortunately there aren't a lot of pics you can download for later reference, but definitely some cool designs. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 3-May-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
