Review: Brickcraft 72033BFS Bricktanicals Bluebonnet

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.

Instructions.














Parts 1.  Loose in Box.  Axle.



Parts 2.  Padlocks, Octagonal Bar Plates, Sword Leaves,
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.
