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.
Last Friday I discovered that there is a code punched into the bottom of each egg that identifies each one. I've added that code to each review title.
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 71 pieces for a PpP of $0.04.

Parts 2. Wedge Plates, Bricks, and Studless Slopes.
Parts 3. Tires, Axle Plates, Rims, Bar Plate, Clip Plate, Round
Bricks, Padlocks!, Rounded Clip Plates, Grille Tiles, Apollo
Studs, Stadium Cheese Slopes (Cheese Slopes with
rounded front edges), Windscreen, and Bases & Levers.
Build. A Battlecart with four mounting points for Systems.
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+). Once again, I feel like this set needs a few Plates to really be useful.
