This is from the third release of Block Tech's Block Succulents line. It features some interesting pieces and I think it's still on Five Below shelves.
Box. MSRP was $3.25, for a $0.06 Price per Piece.
Parts 1. Half Circle Plates w/Cutout, Round Bricks, Quarter Oval Plates, Dome
w/Bar, Octagonal Bar Plates, Curved Slopes w/Cutout, Plate, and Minifig Bucket.
Bricks, Cone, Travis Brick, U-Clips, Inkwell, and Apollo Stud.
Build. Two Frames (2W), two Stations, and one 1 Hit piece of Cover.
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+). I'm a fan of this set -- I mean, look at what I managed to build with it -- but I feel like it needs a little bit more to be truly special.
