I'd like to figure out how to refer in Esperanto to a technique in model railroading known as 'kitbashing' The English language wikipedia article about it is here, but it's basically taking elements from two or more model kits and using elements from them to create a unique structure, locomotive, or freight/passenger car.

Ni Diskutu!

Serikunigi (make series become together)? Arkunigi (make a group (of things) become fused together)? Multunigi? (make many to one) ridulo.gif

Cool stuff though, as someone who would like to collect more gunpla (scale models of the gundam anime's vehicles), I wonder if the same thing could be applied to those models... I'll have to wait till I get a second one to see if I can "kitbash" myself!

Miks-munti would seem to fit the bill.
