Review: Blockees 85036 Herospire Version 5

I bought this because the first one I reviewed was pretty cool and I figured I'd dip my toe into the other releases.  Blokees make a number of different lines of Blind boxes.  The company calls this line "Herospire Warrior" but the primary name on the box is "Warrior Version".  This is the fifth release from this line called "General's Contest".


Box.  I paid $5.99 at Newbury Comics for this.

Contents.

We've got Instructions, Game Stat
card, Base, and display piece.








Parts. Once again laid out
in a figure-centric manner.











Build. This is "Lu Bu Battle Suit".  I think I finally got the assembly right.  The
halberd could be Melee or Spotting depending on how it's put together. The
head could be Melee, Defense, or Spotting, The shoulder pauldrons could
be Defense. The waist armor could be Defense. The shin greaves could be
Defense or Movement.  The arms could be removed for White Die damage.
 
Size Comparison. It's a little larger than a Chub.

The Questions:
Is it below, at, or above $10 per Frame?  Below.  (+5)
Is it a good size to use in a game?  Yes.  A bit bigger than a Chub.  (+5)
How many parts does it have to represent systems?  Five.  (+5)
Does it have enough parts you can remove to represent White Dice damage? Yes. (+5)
Score: +20 (A+).  I really like the look of this one but it's still a blind box just like the other reviews this week.
