Review: 41561 Mixel Tapsy

Mixels time again.  Let's start with the "Mixies" tribe.

Bag.  MSRP is $4.99 for a $0.08 Price per Piece.


Instructions.









Parts.  Those 1x1 Rounds towards the bottom?  They're Apollo Studs.  A few Ball Joints, some Radar Dishes, some Clip Plates and Clip Bricks, a couple of Bar Plates, a couple Mod. Plate w/Vert. Arm, an Octagonal Bar Plate, and those Clip Claws are neat.


Build.  A Quick 4P quad.



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+).  Not a surprising score.
