This is one of the second wave of releases from BLDR. I jumped on this one right away because it has some interesting, and useful, pieces in what looks to be Pearl Gold.
Box. MSRP is $9.99, for a $0.08 Price per Piece.

Build. IO Frigate (2Ras+d8[guns] 1B
[armor]). Systems are Pearl Gold.
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+). This box was packed tight with pieces. I'm going to have fun incorporating some of these parts into the Owen's Crossing table-setting. All those pieces in Pearl Gold are nice. As much as I like all the parts and colors I think this is a parts set rather than a build one.
