Review: 30275 TIE Advanced Prototype Polybag

This is a new polybag that can be found at Toys'R'Us.  I mentioned it in my "Polly Want a Baggy" post earlier this year.

Bag.  Retail is $3.99 for a Price per Piece of $0.09.




Instructions.








Parts.  A large amount of Plates in various forms,
multiples -- except for three individual parts -- of
each piece, and a preponderance of Light Bley.









Build.  Big Dog.  Lots of attachment points on
this quad although it's a little on the large side.

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?  No.  (-5)
Score: +10 (A-).  This would have scored higher but the lack of extra parts held it back.


Oh -- if anyone besides me has been keeping track -- yes, this is my 500th post.
