This is one of the new polybags for 2024. I found it in Walmart, hung up in the Clearance section -- along with another polybag -- even though it's brand new.
Box. MSRP is $4.99, for a $0.12 Price per Piece. As you can see I paid $4.00 for a $0.10 Price per Piece.

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? Above. (-10) (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: -5 (B-). Despite being a Frame-in-a-Bag, and being a great parts pack, this polybag falls victim to licensed material pricing. I get the feeling this one is going to disappear fast so if you want it, it might be a good idea to track one down.
