Review: Mega Bloks GYG34 Hot Wheels Baja Truck

After my first review of the new Mega Bloks Hot Wheels sets, I decided to give it another try since the first set was a real treasure trove of good parts.


Box.  MSRP is $9.99, for a $0.10 Price per Piece.  

Instructions.










Minifig.











Parts 1. Modified Plate(3x4/5x5/3x4 w/2x5 indent).





Parts 2.  Wheels, Printed Wedge w/Cutouts, Printed Tile
w/Studs, Window Frame, Printed Studless Slope, Plate, Mod.
Plate 2x5 w/Studs on Side, Axle Plates, and a Printed Tile.







Parts 3.  Mudguards, Extra Long Cheese Slopes, Panel, Printed Tile,
 Plates, Printed Panels, and Mod. Plate 2x5 w/Studs on Side.

 






Parts 4.  Bricks, Plates, Steering Wheel, 1x5 Plates, Slopes w/Cutout,
Clip Plates, Tile, Wedges w/Cutout, Wedge Panels, Brackets,
Axle Plate, Inverted Slopes, Bars w/Panel, Panels, and Triple Slope.




Parts 5.  Bar Plates, Grille Tiles, Plates, Jumper, and Cheese Slopes.




Build.  Intercept Orbit Cruiser and Rapid Attack Walker.

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away?  Yes.  (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio?  At.  (0)  
(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: +15 (A).  Not quite as awesome as the Bone Shaker but I managed two builds out of this set.
