Review: Make-It Blocks City Construction 4

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.  Plates, Wedge Plate, Crate, Motorcycle Cowl, Motorcycle Body, Wheels,
Round Jumper, Tiles, Antenna, Headlight Bricks, New Headlight Brick, Round
Bricks, Transparent Cheese Slope, Round Plates, and Transparent Round Plates.


Build.  Station and 1 Hit piece of Cover.
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-).  There's not really much here, but this set could be a relatively cheap source of the Motorcycle Cowl piece used in this build.  In fact I'm already experimenting with it in a different build.  I'm gonna have fun with those Wheels too.
