Welcome to "yet another review being done because I need the parts!" I'm your host, Mantisking, and today we'll be taking a look at a Friends set I've had in my To-Do Pile for over a year and a half. I probably would have mentioned this in a Good Sets for Parts post if I had done one for 2023.
Tile, Brackets, Plates, Round Plates, Inkwells, Bricks, Translucent
Brick, Tires, Curved Slopes, and Translucent Round Brick.
Tiles, Grille Tile, Rounded Plates, Clip Plate, Padlock, Bar Studs, Swirl Plates,
Printed Tiles, Printed Round Tiles, Printed Round Bricks, Round Bricks, Brick,
Headlight Brick, Pulley Wheels, Rims, Candlestick, Pin Arms, Skeleton Arms,
Minifig Spoons, Clip Tiles, 1x1x23 Brick, Minifig Handlebar, and Minifig Helmet.
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+). Plenty of good parts, plenty of good colors but the quantities are lacking.
