Purity: Cobi COB1423 Fire Rescue Vehicle Review

I picked these sets up at the Hobby Bunker way back in February of 2018.

Box.  Original price was $18.99 for a $0.17 Price per Piece.  I paid
$6.00 for this at Hobby Bunker.  This yields a $0.05 Price per Piece.


Instructions and stickers.





This was stamped inside the
box.  I'm not sure what it is,
perhaps a mark of authenticity?





Minifig.  That is a fierce face.

Parts 1.  Tires, Plates, Windscreen, Tiles,
Hoses, and Minifig Steering Wheel Base.









Parts 2.  Plates, Bricks, Slopes, Headlight
Bricks, Double Sided Studs, Axle Plates,
Bumper Plate, Bracket, Minifig Steering
Wheel Top, and Hose Ends.

Parts 3.  Rims, Bricks, Plates, Corner
Plates, Axle Plates, Large Cheese
Slopes, Brackets, Round Plates,
Hollow Slopes, and String Reel Holder.




Parts 4.  Plates, Wedge Plates, Clip Plates, Pin Joiners, Headlight Bricks, Bricks, Rounded Cheese Slopes, Open Truncated Cones, Floodlight Glass, and Large Cheese Slopes.


Build.  Battle Cart.


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+).  The multiple Axle Plates gives lots of options for this set.
