Review: Make Market 795531 Floral Brick Art Carnation

A few months ago Michael's started carrying Make Market Floral Brick Art sets.  They're basically copies of sets by Block Tech, Make -It Blocks, and other botanical set creators.  I was originally going to try and review as many of the 27-odd sets that I managed to track down.  But, as these sets have all gone on clearance at 60% off I'm going to do something different.  I'm going to review three sets -- each at different Price per Piece levels -- and put together a post mortem in the final post on why this line tanked when every other company is still going.


Box.  MSRP is $9.99 for a $0.10 Price per Piece.  




Back of Box.






Instructions.








Parts 1.  Octagonal Bar Plates, Translucent Round Plate w/4 Petals, Round Large
Jumper, Round Plates, Cone, Translucent Minifig Mop Head, Ball Joint Plates, 3L
Axle Connectors, Minifig Skis, Bar w/Stop, Axles, and Wedge Studless Slopes.




Parts 2.  Round Plates w/3 Leaves, Ball
Joint Pins, Pneuma-Ts, Minifig Nozzles,
Bar, Clip Bar Holders, and Cone.




Build.  Frames (2W), Station,
and a 1 Hit piece of Cover.

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? At. (0) (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: +15 (A).  Better than Monday's review, Octagonal Bar Plates, Ball Joints, and Hot Pink parts are all interesting to me.  But, if this had two more pieces it would have had a better score.
