Review: 76140 Iron Man Mech

I found this in Kohl's after going back to find more Spider-Man Mech sets.  This is the second of three new sets for 2020 that feature "small" mecha for Marvel characters.

Box.  I paid $9.99 for this which gives a $0.07 Price per Piece.



Instructions and stickers.









Minifig.  Like the Captain Marvel polybag, the
Power Blasts might make good greebles.

Parts 1.  Cockpit Shell, Inverted Slope, Technic
Plate, Axle Plate, Clip Plate, Inverted Tile, Plates, Studless Slopes, Ingot, Click Hinge Plate, Ball
 Joint Plates, Slopes w/Cutout, Technic Brick,
Triple Ball Joint, Panel, Printed Slope, Double 
Cheese Slope, Brackets, Tiles, and Friction Pins.







Parts 2.  Round Tiles, Technic Plates, Launcher(?), New Foot Bracket, Studless Slopes, Brackets, Inverted Tiles, Round Jumpers, Boat Sliders, Tiles, Ball Joint Plates, Axle w/Stop, Friction Pins, Axle/Pins, Quarter Round Tiles, Plates, Rounded Plates,  Slopes, Technic Connectors, Dishes, Cones, and Bar Ball Joints.



Parts 3.  Slopes, Brackets, Axle Plates, Ingots, Wedge Plates, Bar Plates, Plates, Round Tiles, Boat Sliders, Rounded Plates, Ball Joint Plates, and Exo-Force Arms.

Build.  Two Frames and a Station.



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+).  Only two Frames this time but still as good.
