Purity: K22A-4 Mindbox Magic Wind Review

Let's start Mindbox week 2.

Box.  MSRP is $6.22, which gives us a $0.06 Price per Piece.





Instructions and Stickers.







Minifig.


Parts 1.  The box art looks like Burnt Orange but the pieces are Brown.  Plenty of large scale Ball Joint parts.  The quality control is a little shoddy.  Look
at the two pieces in the lower left of the picture.





Parts 2.  Lookit those SSRs!  Lampholders, Double
Sided 1x2 Plate, and more of those Barb pieces too.



Build.  Two Frames -- one 2Rh/2SSR,
one naked -- 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+).  Despite the iffy quality control, this one still gets top marks.
