Purity: Forever Clever GJ3522-01Cobra HISS Tank Review

I found this at a local TJ Maxx last week.  I almost walked past it, thinking it was a standard G.I.Joe toy, until I took a second glance.  It's made in China, though it's not a Kre-O set.  According to HISSTank.com, they're from "Forever Clever".  Looking at the post date these are brand new.  And according to another post, the line will be expanding and carried at multiple retailers.

Box.  MSRP is $7.99, for a $0.08 Price per Piece.  

Instructions & Stickers.

Parts in the box.  It has a cardboard sleeve to prevent

the parts bags from bouncing around the box.

Minifig.  This was a bit annoying to assemble.

Parts 1.  Rubber Treads, Bricks, Turntable Base, Turntable Top, Hinged

Windscreen, Headlight Bricks, Inverted Slopes (Check out how they're

different from Lego ones.), Bracket, Axle Plates, Rims, and Plates.

Parts 2.  Plates, Wedge Plates, Slopes, Corner Slopes, Bricks,

Brackets, Inverted Slopes, Tiles, more Plates (Check out

the 1x5 ones.), Translucent Hinge Plate, and Antenna.

Unfortunately there's flash on some of the Plates and Tiles.

Build.  Frame (2Rd+d8 [guns] 1B [front armor] 1G

[treads]), two 1 Hit pieces of Cover, 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+).  I'm not sure how I feel about this.  On one hand there are some interesting parts at a decent price point.  On the other the quality is not impressive.  I guess I'll leave it up to you to decide for yourself.
