Build. It took a little work but I managed an IO Frigate.
The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? Above. (-10) (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: +5 (B+). Given that the set is built around a big, clunky piece and there's not much in the way of useful pieces, I don't see this as being worth it unless you get it at a steep discount. Even on Clearance the score is just +15 (A).
