Forever Clever is back again with another series of sets based on a different intellectual property.
Box. I paid $5.00 at 5 Below, for a $0.10 Price per Piece.
Parts. Motorcycle Body, 2x4x1.3 Curved Brick, Slopes, Plates,
Tires, Slope w/Cutout, 1x2 Curved Bricks, Panel, Inverted Slope w/
Cutout, Jumpers, Tiles, Hexagonal "Round" Plate, Rims, Taps, Base,
Lever, Round Brick, Brackets, and Inverted Large Cheese Slope.
The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? At. (0) (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: +15 (A). Considering that the minifig and stickers take up a full eleven pieces of the 50 in this set, this is closer to a $0.13 PpA which downgrades the score to a +5 (B+). Also, since you can't build much beyond modifying the bike from the set -- maybe a Station -- I'm having serious thoughts about bringing the score down even further.
