I found these recently in 5 Below. They aren't on the website. Yet? These are made by Hasbro, who used to make Kre-O. So maybe this is them dipping their toe back into the building block market again. There are more sets featured on the back of the box some of which seem to be medium sized and one that looks pretty large.
Box. MSRP is $3.25 for a $0.07 Price per Piece.

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+). More flashing, enough to block the Pinhole in one of the Round Plates, and a kind of boring parts selection. It has the top score but I'm not sure it's actually worth it.
