Review: Make-It Blocks Block Chick

I found this in the Seasonal section of one of my local Dollar Tree stores a few weeks ago.  They were switching things over to Summer/4th of July so this is probably gone already.


Box. MSRP is $1.25, for a $0.02 Price per Piece.

Instructions & Stickers.














Parts 1.  Plates, Double Jumpers, Tiles, Studless Slopes, Bricks w/Studs on
Side, Wedge Studless Slopes, Bricks, Bricks w/Stud on Side, Slopes w/
Cutouts, Bricks w/Studs on Corners, Large Cheese Slopes, Brackets, Quarter
Circle Tiles, Cheese Slopes, Stadium Tiles, Tooth Plates, and Round Tiles.



Build.  Frame (2W), 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+). That is a lot of Yellow.  It has a lot of SNOT pieces but no Hinge type parts so that reduces the usefulness.  I really like those Orange wedges though.
