In cases like this, I define the main model to be the one that uses all the
parts and the alternate model to be the one that only used about 2/3 of them.
Remember Millenia Throwbot? The little guy on the bike was the main model and
the big guy with tires for feet was the alternate. Even though a lot of things
made it look like the set just built the big guy.
The are other cases though, 8448 was intended to have different forms, none of
which probably use all the pieces. The DDK also comes to mind, building R2D2
leaves some parts, apparently extra pieces were included specifically for the
alternative models.
