Continuing Star Trek Week, we have the Kre-O small scale Klingon D7 Battlecruiser. Like the previous set, this one also has a MSRP of $4.99. Which gives us a price per piece of $0.13.
Instructions and stickers.
The round Trans-Red piece is interesting as is the rounded 1x2 Plate. As with the first set there's a Light Brick I probably won't use. The 1x2 Modified Bricks w/Studs on 1 Side are pretty neat too.
Once again, that base will never get used. The stand might. The 1x4 Tiles w/ Studs on each end look neat. The 2x2 piece in the bottom middle is a Rounded Inverted Slope.That Dark Grey is even darker than the old Lego color.
A small 4P frame with a giant shield Attachment for 2B.
The Questions:
Can you build a frame, or frames, right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? At retail price, above. (-10) (The Golden Ratio is $0.10 per part.)
If you can't build a frame right away, or choose not to, does it have parts you should be able to put into use right away? Yes. (+5)
Does it have more than a handful of immediately useful parts? No. (-5)Score: -5 (B-). It's an okay set. As with the Enterprise set, it suffers from horrible pricing.
