Looks like we have a new entry to the brick built botanical sets "competition". I found this the other day in Walmart. Apparently there are more of them and the majority of the Brickcraft line is exclusive to Walmart. Anyway. This is the only set I found so let's give it a review and hope that there are more out there.
Box. MSRP is $4.97, for a $0.05 Price per Piece.
Bar Clips, 3L Axle Connectors, Bar W/Stop, Lightsaber Bar,
Notched Axles, Axle Connector w/Clips, Bar Plates, Round
Bricks, Axle, Round Large Jumpers, Bar Studs, Round
Plates, Travis Brick, Cone, Tooth Plates, and Clip Claws.
Build. Frame [2Rh+d8 (claws) 2B (maneuver jets) 1Gd8 (no ranged weapons)].
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 like it. A new part and pieces in colors Lego hasn't made yet is always something that will get my attention.
