Review: Make-It Blocks City Construction Set 1

I bought these after the changeover to $1.25 by Dollar Tree, I think.  People have said some of the sets from this line are copies of Lego sets.  I bought the entire release because I think we have some good terrain selections.

Box.  MSRP is $1.25 for a $0.04 Price per Piece.

Instructions.

Parts.  Plates, Wedge Plates, Turntable Base, Round Plates, Ladder

w/Clips, Rock Top, Rock Bottom, Girder Bricks, Hinge Bricks, Slopes,

Facet Bricks, Bar Plate, Bar Tiles, Hinge Plate, Grass/Plant Pieces,

Translucent Cone, Minifig Seat, Minifig Shovel, Ball Joint Socket

Hinge, Tile w/Lifting Ring, Levers & Bases, and Ball Joint Hook.

Build.  A three Hit piece of Cover and a one Hit piece of

Cover.  I know it's close to what the set is supposed to build but

a few of these and you have the start of a construction site.

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?  No.  (-5)

Score: +10 (A-).  I think I need a few more of these.
