Review: Mega Bloks HKT14 Pokemon Combee

Let's do a Series 17 Pokeball review.  Once again there's only a listing on the Canadian site.  I'll be honest, I only bought this because it looked like it had some interesting parts.

Box.  MSRP is $8.99 for a $0.26 Price per Piece.

Instructions.

Parts.  Hexagonal Plates, Plate, Double Sided Plate, Printed Small

Domes w/Hole, Small Domes, Printed Small Dome, Round Plates, Double

Sided Half Round Plates, Dome, Jumper, Antenna, Brackets, Apollo Studs,

Transparent Bar, Wings, and Double Sided Round Bricks w/Hole.

Build.  I think it looks neat and it has a few mounting

points for Systems.  It will need a base though.

 

Size Comparison.  As you can see it has some volume.

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?  No.  (-5)
Score: -5 (B-).  I'd get this for the Hexagonal Plates alone.  The antenna are neat also, too bad they're Mega Bloks bar diameter.  I may possibly like the build enough to track down more to put together a squad.
