Purity: iiFun Scorpio Review

Back in 2017 another blog reviewed this set.  After a mention recently on the Facebook group, I managed to find them at Target in the Seasonal section.

Egg.  I paid $3.00, for a $0.03 Price per Piece.


Instructions.











Parts.  Round Plates, Plates, Wedge Slope Bricks, Hinge Plates, Printed Round Tile, Brackets, Bar Plate, Grille Tiles, Technic Axles, Wing End Brick, Lampholders, Clip Tiles, Tiles, Cheese Slopes, Hinge Cylinders, Hinge Cylinders w/AxleHolders, Barbs, Wedge Plate, Cones, and Studless Slopes.


Build.  Two Frames and Station.
Plenty of left over pieces.

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+).  The hinges are a little floppy.  But if you're looking for a quick, cheap start to a squad this is your best bet.
