This weeks reviews are going to be a little different. They all come from one "set". Brix has already released Buildable Brix Trios as part of their Micro Brix line, now they're releasing them in the standard brick size. This is the first of two botanical releases.
Box. MSRP is $6.00, for a $0.10 Price per Piece.
Parts. Round Plates, Octagonal Bar Plate, Round Plate
w/4 Petals, Eggshell, Double Sided Plates, Round
Large Jumpers, Tiles, Plates, Tooth Plates, Apollo
Studs, Clip Plates, Wedge Studless Slopes, Curved
Bricks w/ Cutout, Slopes w/Cutout, Travis Bricks, Cone,
Plate w/2 Studs on Side, and Bent Bars w/Stud.
The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? At. (0) (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: +15 (A). This is going to be interesting. For the price of one set, you get three sets -- with similar parts counts. This one yielded a skeleton Frame and a Station. We'll have to see about the rest of the week.
