Review: Make-It Blocks Train

Make-It Blocks has another release for 2023 besides the buildings that I reviewed a couple of months ago.


Box.  MSRP is
 $1.25, for a $0.02 Price per Piece.

Instructions.














Parts 1.  Plates, Mudguard Plate, Dome, Cone, Axle Plates, Round Plates, Bar Plates,
Grille Tile, Jumper, Clip Plate, Cheese Slopes, Cheese Graters, Studless Slopes,
Brackets, Translucent Round Plates, Wheels, Panels, and Curved Slopes w/Cutout.




Build.  IO Frigate.

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?  Yes.  (+5)
Score: +20 (A+).  I thought this might be a copy of an old Lego polybag but I don't have anything like it in my records.  It's a decent parts set.

  1. This indeed looks like this one (https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=4837-1 ), although simplified.
