Review: Block Tech US101-2421 Cube-imals Axolotl

I found this the other day at Five Below along with a few other sets.  There's at least three other versions.  I thought this was the most interesting of the bunch so let's give it a look.

Box.  MSRP is $4.00 for a $0.04 Price per Piece.

Instructions.

Parts 1.  Rubber Bands.

Parts 2.  Plates, Tiles, Corner Bricks, Tiles

w/Studs on Edge, Corner Plates, Brick

w/Axle Hole, Bricks w/Pinholes, Brick,

Round Brick, and Bar Plates (open ends).

Parts 3.  Round Tile, Plates, Axle/Pin Connector Toggle Joint Smooth, Axle/Pin Connector,

Axles w/Stop, Notched Axle, Round Plates w/5 Petals, Inkwells, Half Bushings, Half Pins,

Bar Claws, Bar Connectors, Bar, and Minifig Weapon Blades w/Bar Handle & Spikes.

Build.  Frame (2W) -- taking inspiration

from my Doom Bot -- 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+).  The colors are nice but I feel like it needs more of the bits and bobs we all look for to be really good.
