A used book store near me sales used collectibles and one can often find scale models there.. some sealed, some open. And some will be partially built, others fully built and in the box.
If they're priced right I'm not above picking up those partially built and "starting over" but being diligent about doing a part count is imperative.
Yet, I sometimes make mistakes (I am 54 now).
I grabbed an MPC B-wing that was pretty much untouched but I didn't notice the pilot was missing.
Now, I've never built a B-wing from any company, but I've built several X and Y's, and the Bandai Red 5 I built has a Rey pilot that is pretty bad but I think I can sculpt a chest box and hoses and make her presentable (she is in a helmet fortunately).
Rey fits in the MPC cockpit, but as I've never actually seen an MPC B-Wing pilot (in hand) I was hoping if someone who's built both think they're reasonably close in scale.
(I know her helmet will be "wrong", but I figure Rebels are poor and out of B-wings helmets at the time ).
Thanks
