Review: Block Tech Block Bouquet Black Rose

After finding last Monday's review, I "raided" a few more Marshalls stores to see what else was available.  I found this set at the third store.  It's different from this year's and last year's, which makes me wonder if RMS is making different sets for different distribution channels.  Again, according to the date of manufacture on the bottom of the box, this was made earlier this year.  There's also no individual set number.  Let's give it a review.

Box.  MSRP is $4.99, for a $0.04 Price per Piece.

Instructions.

Parts 1.  Axles, Notched Round Plate, Octagonal Bar Plates,

 (Right), Double Curved Wedges (Left), Tiles, Large Cheese

Slopes w/Studs, Axle, Curved Slopes w/Wing End, Axle/

Build.  Two Frames (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+).  It's a good starter kit but, like last Monday's review, I'm not sure how available these sets will be.
