Review: Block Tech 24-2366 Elephant Animal Blocks

I found these at 5 Below recently.  I'd seen them online but I didn't realize how compact the boxes actually are.  These sets can be found either in the Toy section with the rest of the building block sets, or on a rack by the entrance, or in the aisle to the checkout with other sub $5 items.


Box.  MSRP is
 $1.00, for a $0.03 Price per Piece.

Instructions.











Parts.  Bricks, Curved Brick, Inverted Slopes, Slopes, Bricks w/ Stud on
Side, Bracket, Plates, Clip Plates, 2L Bars, and Printed Round Tiles.




Build.  Animorph Frame (2Rh)
and 1 Hit piece of Cover.

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-).  Not as interesting as the set from Monday -- honestly, I don't think any of them will be -- but those 2L Bars are intriguing.
