Review: 30386 Poe Dameron's X-Wing Fighter Polybag

I found this in Walmart as part of a display of new Marvel and Star Wars sets.  There's already been a bit of talk about it on the Facebook group.

Bag.  I paid $4.97 for this which gives a $0.07 Price per Piece.



Instructions.








Parts.  Lightsaber Bars, Plates, a Brick, Tiles, Wedge Plates, 2x3 Plate w/Rounded End, Brackets, Clip Plates, Slopes, Minifig Ski Poles, Minifig Carrots, Minifig Telescopes, Round Bricks, Lampholders,  Round Plates, and Rounded Tiles.


Build.  Frame (2Rh+d8/2Y) and Station.

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+).  A bunch of useful parts at a good price point that can make a Frame and a Station.

  1. After reading your review I went and picked up 4 copies of this set. Here is what I built:
