Review: Block Tech US24-2332 Succulents Hen & Chick

5 Below had a new release of Botanical sets but, instead of flowers it's succulents.  The box coloring and packaging is similar to the first release of Block Botanical.  This was the first release, there are way more sets in the second.  You may still be able to find the first release in a few stores.


Box.  MSRP is
 $3.25, for a $0.04 Price per Piece.

Instructions.















Parts 1.  Octagonal Bar Plate, Round Plate, Round Plate w/Cutout, 2x2x2/3
Double Female Brick, Double Sided Plate, Quarter Domes, Leaves w/Small
Pins, Eggshell Crowns, Corner Plates, Tail Ends/Horns, and Round Plate.






Parts 2.  Round Large Jumper, Half Circle Tiles, Round Brick, Double Sided Plates, Tooth
Plates, Clip Plates, Round Plates w/Flower Petals, Inverted Tiles, and Apollo Studs.
 



Build.  Frame (2W) and Station.

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+).  Those Leaves are weird but there's some useful bits in here.  I like the Pink pieces.
