I'm sure you all wanted to get them - now you can! It turns out that all of these parts are included on an unreleased patch in the game (1.06), and this patch has been uploaded to a website by a kind soul. I would like to point out that this patch is unofficial and could possibly cause complications. However, you can now download these mech parts and use them in your game. Excellent news for us all, especially if you had no chance of getting these parts until now ! We don't know if EA will release this patch officially yet. You can find download the Dr Pepper free Spore parts here. Please be sure to read all the disclaimers.
