Review: 41513 Mixel Gobba

Here's your Boxing Day offering.

Bag.  MSRP is $4.99 which gives us  a Price per Piece of $0.09.





Instructions.






Parts.  A bunch of no-stud slopes and Cheese slopes are the immediate standouts.  The 2x2 Modified Plates w/Studs on the side are useful.  The 1x5 plate w/axle hole is intriguing.



Build.  Groot?



The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away?  Yes.  (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio?  Below.  (+5)  
(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?  Yes.  (+5)
Score: +20 (A+).  While it gets a top score, the color selection of the parts isn't that great.  Unless you really like brown.
