The entire grapple is Technic based so in extra.  Other than that,
I think it was just a few basic plates and bricks.

If only a few, you might consider a version that would be an
alternate model using only parts from the two sets.

My next version will be a serious attempt to build it using parts
from only those two SW sets.  If I do next extra parts, I'll try
to keep them internal (where they won't show) so one could use
spare bricks without worrying about color.

I also want to have my next version to allow the pilot pod to
detach from the engine assembly (emergency escape).

Are the wings on your Star Fury the correct angle?

I think they're REAL close (based on the various pictures I used
as a guide).  I wondered at first too, but the Starfury's wings
are not as steep as the X-Wing.
