Review: Block Tech US101-0927 Mount Up Cyber-Saurus Rex

This is from the fourth release of Block Tech's "Mount Up!" line that was released in early 2025.  I decided to review it because, say it with me now, "I needed some parts from it for some builds".


Box.  MSRP is $6.00, for a $0.05 Price per Piece.

Instructions.








Minifig.






Parts 1.  The ubiquitous Weapons Sprue.












Parts 2.  Clip Plates, Tiles, Ball Joint Plates, Grille Tile, Plates,
Minifig Binoculars, Round Plates, Barbs, and Tooth Plates.







Parts 3.  Studless Slopes, Tiles, Bar Plate, Corner Plates, Plates, Ball Joint Plates, Tooth Plates, Wedge Plate, Exo-Force Arms, Bracket, and Bricks w/Studs on Corners.
 







Parts 4.  Quarter Circle Plates, Plates, Wedge Plates, Bar Plates,
Mudguard Plate, Ball Joint Plates, Large Ball Joint Bricks, Bricks,
Inverted Slopes, Studless Slopes, and Bricks w/Studs on Side.

Build.  Frame, Station, and two IO Frigates.
 
 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 haven't seen a bad "Mount Up" set yet.  I can't wait to really dig into these parts.
