I found these at Ocean State Job Lot two months ago while I was out shopping for junk food for a recent game. The display box I found them in lists eight different builds so I rooted through what was there and found what looked to be seven different packages.
Egg. I paid $2.99 for this. MSRP is ????, for a $0.08 Price per Piece based on the parts count on the label. Actual parts count is 65 pieces for a PpP of $0.05.

Parts 1. Bricks, Inverted Slopes, Wedge
Plates, Brackets, and Corrugated Bricks.

Round Bricks, Transparent Apollo Studs, Round Tiles,
Apollo Studs, Levers & Bases, Antenna, and Windscreen.
Build. Battle Cart with plenty of Attachment points.
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+). Another top scoring set that doesn't feel like it has earned it. A couple of Plates, 2x4 or 2x6, would go a long way to rounding out the usefulness of this set.
