After the first Forever Clever G.I. Joe review I went out and tracked down as many sets as I could. Let's take a look at the smaller sets this week. I bought all of these at Marshalls.
Box. MSRP is $4.99, for a $0.11 Price per Piece.
Minifig. This are always annoying to assemble. And Storm
Shadow is Grey as opposed to the White shown on the box.
Parts. Plates, Tires, Rims, Grille Tiles, Bricks, Slopes, Axle
Plates, Tiles, Motor Brick, Bracket, Cone, Taps, and Antenna.
The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? Over. (-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? No. (-5)
Score: -5 (B-). Better in quality than the last two but not a great selection of parts.
