Review: Brix 64171-01 Red Transforming Robot

This is a new for 2026 set.  I came across them a few weeks ago in Five Below.  It looks like it may be a decent starting point for MFZ: Rapid Attack.


Box.  MSRP is $4.00
, for a $0.03 Price per Piece.

Build.  Frame (2Rd+d8 [water 
cannons]), Station, and Frame.

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+).  Tons of useful parts -- how often do we see clone Pneuma-Ts? -- but I feel like it needs a few standard Bricks and Plates to help fill out the build.
