Review: Zuru Max Mystery Build 6 (DG20210621H)

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 52 pieces for a PpP of $0.06.
 
Instructions & Stickers







Parts 1.  Wedge Bricks, Brick, Round Bricks, Wedge Plates, and Brackets.









Parts 2.  Bricks, Wedge Plates, Studless Slopes,
Round Bricks, and Inverted Slope.

 



Parts 3.  Tail, Triple Curve/Inverted Slopes, Triple Curve Slopes,
Clip Plates, Antennas, Stadium Cheese Slopes (Cheese Slopes
with rounded front edges), Levers and Bases, and Cones.
Build.  IO Frigate (2Ras+d8/1Y).
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+).  Once again, I like the set with the standard complaint.
