I'd say the cockpit pieces, plus the laser cannons could be used in other lego
themes (the cockpits would probably have to have a different paint job,
though.) I think pieces like Boba's hlmet/backpack, Jar Jar's head and the
Eopies from the Gungan Patrol couldn't be used in other sets. I'd also doubt
lego would be able to use painted pieces in other themes, like the Tie Fighter
window piece, but with a different paint job they could use it.
