Ready2Robot Blind Box Review

Once again we look at a non-Building Block item to see if it can be used for MF0: Rapid Attack.  I could have sworn Dark Cloud Blogs had already reviewed these.  I vaguely remember talking about them at some point.  Ready 2 Robot is a blind buy collectible mecha designed with mix and match parts.  Sounds right up our alley, doesn't it?  I took a lot of pictures because there were a bunch of little packages tucked inside the main box.

Box.  I paid $4.99 at TJ Maxx.  (I saw them on Clearance at Target for $2 several months ago.)  MSRP was $9.99.



Instructions.









Data Sheet.



Box, without wrappers.









Parts 1.  Leg.



Parts 2.  Body.





Parts 3.  Leg.

Parts 4.  Arm or Melee attachment.






Parts 5.  Arm or Melee attachment.


Parts 6.  Direct Fire, Artillery,
or Spotting attachment.




Parts 7.  Defense, Movement,
or Spotting attachment.



Parts 8.  Pilot container.  The instructions on the
package for removing this from the box were
crap.  Check the instruction sheet first.



Pilot, decanted.  I put a paper towel down just
in case the slime was more liquid than gel.



Box, disassembled.




Assembled mech.

Size Comparison.

The Questions:
Is it below, at, or above $10 per Frame?  At.  (0)

Is it a good size to use in a game?  Maybe?  Roughly the same size as a Chub.  (+5)
How many parts does it have to represent systems?  Four.  (+5)
Does it have enough parts you can remove to represent White Dice damage?  Yes.  (+5)
Score: +15 (A).  It looks cool but it's a blind box so you can't easily build a squad.
