Review: Brickcraft 72578BFS Bricktanicals Amaryllis

Last year, Brickcraft released a series of Christmas Bricktanicals.  They're doing it again this year but with some tweaks and upgrades.  Let's take a week and review them.


Box.  MSRP is $5.99
, for a $0.12 Price per Piece.  I paid $4.97 at Walmart, for a $0.10 Price per Piece.

Instructions.










Parts 1.  Axle.  I'm not sure why
It wasn't just loose in the box.









Parts 2. 10x4 Leaves w/Clips, Plates w/Angular Extension, Plates, Double Slopes, Bar Plates, Large Round Jumper, Axle Connector w/Clips, Inverted Tiles, Axles, Axle Connectors, Barrel Hinge w/1 Finger, Barrel Hinge w/2 Fingers, 1L Liftarm, Apollo Studs, Minifig Skates, Minifig Whips, Bar, Octagonal Bar Plate, and Steering Wheel.


Build.  Frame (2Rh+d8 [arm blades] 2W).

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away?  Yes.  (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio?  Above.  (-10)  
(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: +5 (B+).  The Duo Tone Leaves are neat.  That is a really Dark Red.  
The score for the price I paid is +15 (A).
