Huaojozu Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 I took the leftover pieces from the second 31084 build and used them to build a ride similar to the third 31084 build and a Test-your-strength corner. I was always bugged by the amount of pieces not used in the alternate builds and I always try to build something with them that adds to the model. Since I'm going for an entire Pirate themed amusement park (or a park section at least), more themed attractions are always welcome. I'm wondering if anyone else has this compulsion of using as many spare pieces as possible in the original builds? At the very least it keeps them from getting lost :D Quote
Lucarex Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Actually just built this great little Creator 3in1 set today - although sidekick was adamant he wasnt interested in the alternative 2 builds, just the shark pirate coaster. The plan is to enhance it by adding to the castle parts, maybe recolour a bit and theme with different minifigs such as PotC (Davy Jones' gang, mermaids etc.) or even Hidden Side (the Shrimp Shack looks perfect). But yes, I think many share your compulsion to add where possible - as you say they just end up lost in the parts bin. Edited April 12, 2020 by Lucarex typos Quote
Merlict Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 Nice, the amount of leftover parts is just ridiculous. I'd like to see all alt builds use at least 60% of the parts, doesn't seem too crazy! Quote
