Review: Lazer Blocks US101-0020 Alien Ship

It's been over a year and a half since I've done a review of the Block Tech sub-line, Lazer Blocks.  Last week was almost dedicated to reviewing Lazer Blocks sets.  This is the last of those sets.  I feel like all of the sets I have planned for review have Ijad vibes.


Box.  MSRP is $5.00
, for a $0.05 Price per Piece.

Instructions.












Parts 1.  Plates, Transparent Triple Curve Wedge, Transparent Hinge
Plates w/Angle Side Extensions, Octagonal Bar Plate, Transparent Light 
Brick, Brackets, Round Plate, Transparent Triple Slope, Bar Plates, Ball
Joint Plates, Hinge Plates, Transparent Studless Slopes, Clip Claws, 
Transparent Cone, Transparent Tail End, and Transparent Tail/Neck Middle.






Parts 2.  Transparent Dishes, Plates, Jumper, Grille Tiles, Transparent Ice Cream Cone,
Transparent Cones, Double Clip Plates, Padlocks, Round Plates, Transparent Tiles,
 Transparent Bar, Clip Bar Holders, Bar Clip, Transparent Round Brick, and Large Claws.
 
Build.  Two Frames (2W) and a 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+).  Only 30% are Transparent pieces but there is a great selection of colors in this set.
