Review: Block Tech US101-1166 Block Bouquet Black Rose

Just in time for Halloween we have this special "Block Bouquet" release.  My receipt lists them as "Goth Flowers".  These are a limited edition release and will probably have disappeared off shelves by the time this is published.  Sorry.  There doesn't seem to be an page for them on the Five Below website either.


Box.  MSRP is
 $3.25, for a $0.03 Price per Piece.

Instructions.














Parts 1.  Round Plates, Octagonal Bar Plates, Plates, Triple Curved Wedges,
Axles, Studless Slopes, Double Curved Wedges (right), Double Curved
Wedges (left), Wing End Curved Slopes, Axle/Pin Connector, Ball Joint
Plates, Tiles, Clip Claws, Bent Axle Connector w/Pinhole, and Travis Brick.






Parts 2.  Inverted Tiles, Round Large Jumper, Clip Plates, Wedge Studless
Slopes, Tiles, Tooth Plates, Studless Slopes, Axle, Large Cheese
Slopes w/Studs, Inverted Studless Slopes, Pin Ball Joints, Half Pin,
Bushings, Axle Connectors, Horn/Large Barb, Brackets, and Gear.



Build.  Two Frames (2Rd) and two Stations.

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+).  Two Frames and two Stations is another good start to a squad.  I really hope these sets are released again next year so I can get more.
