Another potentially useful set in what has proven to be a mecha heavy year for Lego. I wasn't sure if I was going to review this but I really wanted those Gold Large Figure Armor Plates.
Box. MSRP is $9.99, for a $0.13 Price per Piece.
Parts 1. Cockpit, Cockpit Shell, Jagged Blade w/Axle Hole, Inverted Studless
Slope, Studless Slope, Curved Slopes w/Studs, Inverted Slopes, Brick w/Pinhole
& Plate, Large Figure Armor Plates, Cheese Graters, Rounded Plates, Ball Joint
Plates, Stud Shooters, Clip Plate, Cone, Ingots, Minifig Katanas, and Bar w/Stop.
Cheese Slopes, Studless Slope w/Cutout, Printed Round Tile, Stud
Shooter Triggers, Tassels, Translucent Round Plates, and Friction Pins.
spare Systems: Melee (2Rh) and Spotting (2Y).
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? Yes. (+5)
Score: +5 (B+). The price point isn't great but you can make a Frame with extra Systems so that evens it out a little.
