I find that a few of the HP sets have some decent parts, but the motherload of
useful thingies comes from the Snowspeeder/AT-ST pack. Tons of useful parts in
there, without even a single useless piece. And all of it is in grey, perfect
for .space. Beyond that however, your best bet for plates/bricks is S&H. I use
them to get the essential brick/plates, and then bricklink for the rest of the
parts I need.
