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.
Show it off! The biggest problem I had was that I couldn’t find the gears for the arms. I used some that were almost the same but just a bit larger so I had to make the shoulders slightly taller to fit them. But that was a fun challenge.
Looks great, and much more accurate than mine. Thanks for sharing!
So, if you want to, you can order the pieces you’re missing from BrickLink.com.
Here’s the link for this set: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?id=5437#T=I
Make sure you’re looking at the “Set Inventory” tab and scroll down until you find the pieces you need. You can then order them from a vendor. Good luck!
Edit: most of the gears are approximately $. 02 per piece. There’s probably a min so once you’re in their store, look for minifigs!!
