Let's do something simple for a Friday. I purchased this at my local Lego store. This is part of the eighth Series of the Dots line.
(Black, Pink, and Medium Azure). Eight and nine are a Pink over-molded Star
Round Tile. Ten and eleven are Trans-Purple Round Tiles. Twelfth is Trans-
Clear Sparkle Round Tiles. Thirteenth is Pearlescent Gemstones. Fourteen
and Fifteen are Translucent Mother-of-Pearl(?) Quarter Circle Tiles.
Build. None, as these are all accent parts.
The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? No. (-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? Yes. (+5)
Score: +10 (A-). This feels like a throwback to Series 1 and Series 3 with some of the contents of this set. It's similar to Series 6 in terms of number of different pieces.
