Review: Make-It Blocks City Construction Set 3

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 $0.03 Price per Piece.

Instructions.














Parts.  Cone, Round Brick w/Pinholes, Plate w/Cutout, Slope, Bar Tiles, Bracket, Axle Plates, Hinge Brick Top, Hinge Brick Base, Large Cheese Slope, Clip Plates, Round Tile, Minifig Neck Brackets, Plates, Lampholder, Pneuma-Ts, Clip Bar Holders, Wheel, Minifig Shovel, Minifig Revolver, Minifig Telescopes, and Bar.





Build.  Battlecart.

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-).  This set isn't great for making a Frame but it has good parts and it's only the second Make-It Block set to have Pneuma-Ts that I've seen.
