How many of these have you built (or do you plan to build)?

I do want to create a string of them, but they require many 1x2x5 tall gray
bricks (48), and a lot of gray half studs (50+).  Unfortunately for my dream
of creating an impressive row of BethGons, I started a building which
utilizes those same two elements (It currently has 320 1x2x5 gray tall
bricks, and 640 gray and dark gray half studs!), so it will have to wait a
while:-/

I'm at a loss for words...    I do wish LEGO would come out with a gray
half stud bulk pack- the GP7 I've been working on takes about 24
itself.  I'm running low right now.

Wouldn't it
be cool to have a whole unit train of these at a show?  I have (or soon
will have) enough parts to build at least two of these myself.  Maybe a
bunch of us could get together and build enough for a train and get it
together at some show ( the train summit, brickfest, etc)

That would be awesome!  When I get my digital camera connection working
again, I'll take a lot of detail pics (hopefully one day I'll get into
MLCAD).

Looking forward to it!
