Purity: Mega Bloks CNG76 Call of Duty Hoverbike Raid Review

Let's take a look at one of the newer Megabloks Call of Duty sets.

Box.  MSRP is $9.99 for a $0.11 Price per Piece.


Instructions.








Minifig.

Parts 1.  Everything here should be useful.









Parts 2.  That "bike frame" piece at the top of the picture is going to be a bugaboo.  Those 1x1 Corner Stud Bricks are really interesting though.  The printed pieces are nice too.  As are the Bar/Bar (closed ends) pieces.




Parts 3.  I like those Trans-Blue Tiles, and the Inverted Clip Tiles too.



Build.  I managed an IO Frigate with a stand, my usual 2Ra/1Y loadout.

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away?  Yes.  (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio?  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?  Yes.  (+5)
Score: +5 (B+).  Not a bad score and the set has some interesting parts.
