Review: 41803 Extra Dots 8

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.


Bag.  I paid
 $3.99 for a $0.04 Price per Piece.



Parts.  
First row is Printed Tiles. Second through seventh is Quarter Circle Tiles
 (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.
