Review: Make-It Blocks 344183-2 Building Block Bot Yellow Polybag

I found these recently while shopping at Dollar Tree.  They're apparently so new they don't have a page on the website.  I feel like they're going for some sort of a Mixel / Technic crossbreed with these.  I've only found four different sets in this release so far.


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

Instructions.











Parts.  Plates, 1x4 Bricks w/Pinholes, 1x2x2 Brick, Brick, 1x2 Bricks w/Pinhole,
Headlight Bricks, Gears, Knob (Cog/Gear/Wheel), Turntable Base, Turntable Top,
Connector w/Pinhole, Friction Pins, Printed Round Tiles, Axle Ball Joints, and Axle/Pins.


Build.  




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 is basically just a palette swapped version of Wednesday's review.
