I recently came across four new set lines of Brix building blocks, which seems to be a subsidiary of "Well Played", in 5Below. Two of these lines are micro bricks, they look to be about the same size as Nano Blocks, but the other lines are compatible with Lego.
Box. MSRP is $3.25, for a $0.04 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? 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 the Light Blue and Light Yellow but I feel like this set doesn't have a lot to offer beyond that.

I like the stickers. SO these are in scale with standard Lego Bricks?
ReplyDeleteYes. There's a Botanicals line and a Microscale Fruit line that are Nanoblock sized.
