I find the best sets are anything using Technic pieces that's on deep discount. :)

And along those lines, the Technic Mini Bulldozer set (inventory here) is a phenomenal deal at $0.06/part.

And one of these days I'll get used to using the board codes.  Vince, could you fix the URL in the post above?

Another set with great parts is Mini X Wing polybag set -- inventory here -- you can find it in the Christmas aisle at Target.

David Artman:
Damn, that X-Wing set is chock full of Mechatoniness. Too bad it doesn't have any "hinges" (I don't could the clips as such--I mean stuff one can make a knee or shoulder, like the first one in the rules).

I've spent WAY too many hours since MACE 2010 making mechs. One evening when I'm not doing laundry or sending out resumes, I'll try to get some good shots of them to post on my design site. I have a snakebot one I rather like (using a string of Space Squid segments as a "movement attachment") and a relatively inspired (IMHO) variation on the "space marine" mech in the rules.

If you want hinges, the 30054 AT-ST polybag is the one you want.  Target has it right now in the Easter section.

Will you post pictures, or a link to them, here?

Newsflash: More Good sets for Mechaton!

I recently picked up the polybags 30052 AAT Mini and 40021 Hallowe'en Spiders.  They have a bunch of really nice parts for Mechaton.
