Spent a few hours digging through my tub of pieces and managed to find almost all the right parts for this set. Some adjustments were necessary to accommodate replacement parts and there is some recoloring going on, but I think it just makes it look battle-worn.

      It was fun, but idk if I’ll rebuild another set until I have a good way to sort everything out. I’d love to put the Mege Core Magnetizer back together, but that’s twice as many pieces to find…

        When I sorted my childhood Lego out 20 years later, I bought a stack of Tupperware containers and sorted everything by piece type (plate, tile, brick, etc) then from there was able to pull out the parts I needed to reconstruct my old sets (with the help of bricklink for the missing pieces).
