Review: Make-It Blocks Space Rover

More backlog from my "To Be Reviewed" Pile, here's another older Make-It Blocks set. I bought this back before the changeover to $1.25 by Dollar Tree.



Box.  MSRP was $1.00 for a $0.03 Price per Piece.

Instructions.












Parts.  Brick, Plates, Bar Frame, Grille tile, Axle Plates, Bracket, Wheels, Cone, Bar
Plates, Clip Plates, Round Plate, Hubcaps, Round Bricks w/Fins, and Antennas.





Build.  Frame [2Rh+d8 (ground hammers) 2B (maneuver
rockets) 1Gd8 (no ranged weapons) 2W].

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-).  Another one I should have paid more attention to, the Bar Frame has potential, Clip Plates are useful, and the Finned Bricks are always fun.
