There are MOCs utilizing whatever pieces at hand to create something unique and then there are alternates using only the parts included from a set to build something else. This thread (I have wanted to start for a while now) is meant to showcase such designs to help inspire your own well as display what can be done within such limited means. Anyway here are a few to get started.

Note:
While the main point of this topic is primarily the usage of pieces within a single set to create a different model shown on the box, the mixing of two or more sets is permitted but the final product must only use those included pieces. Please list the set number(s) of any alternate design posted.

I'm guessing this fits into the theme of this thread.  And I can't let TOK have all the fun.

6914 Crawfish by grohl

Shark, bird and lobster are really great. They look official (even if the antennas of the lobster are certainly weak)

These make fourteen alternates for that mini Mini Cooper by this guy. Good grief. (The other nine are on the first page if you haven't seen them.)
