Looking great there dude

Having the ability to mix and match MK3DD walls with your Dungeon Works walls does open up some interesting possibilities - as well as the obvious application of using different walls for different areas built by different races, you can use different style walls to represent where something has been 'bricked up' and the Heroes might break down the wall (of course anything someone has gone to the trouble of sealing up like that in a dungeon is bound to be trouble).
Another use could be extremely obvious secret doors - yes that does sound a little silly on the face of it, but consider this; while the 'secret door' might be obvious, how it's opened might not be so. Imagine a puzzle room encounter where the Heroes know there's a 'secret door' to open but have very little in the way of clues on how to open it, stick some odd features in the room - statues, unlit torch sconces, ect - doing something with one (or maybe more if you're feeling mean) of these objects opens the secret door.
Talking of torch sconces, the little holes in the DW walls give you the perfect opportunity to create some removable wall mounted features - just find yourself some plastic rod (or maybe cocktail sticks if they are the right size) and glue short length to the back of some spare shields, banners or weapons, torches, ect.
For more posh dungeons you might have paintings on the walls or decorative statues - you could use spare monster heads to make gargoyle faces that might form parts of puzzles and traps (shooting flames or crossbow bolts, or acting as switches) - you could even fit levers or blade traps to the walls in this way.
