Review: Block Tech US101-2785 Block Bouquet Black Rose

We've got another reissue of an old Block Tech Halloween Botanical set.  This time though, I purchased it at Target.  Which shouldn't be a surprise since I've found them at Marshalls in the past.


Box.  MSRP is $5.00
, for a $0.04 Price per Piece.

Instructions.














Parts 1.  Notched Round Plate, Steering Wheels, Axles, Double Curved
Wedges, Inverted Tiles, Plates, Double Studless Slopes, 3L Axle
Connectors, Bent Axle Connector w/Pinhole, and Clip Claws.







Parts 2.  Quarter Circle Studless Slopes, Double Curved Wedges, Corner
Tiles, Curved Slopes w/Wing, Round Plates, Studless Slopes, Plates, 
Travis Brick, Brackets, Wedge Studless Slopes, and Axle/Pin Connectors.




Parts 3.  Clip Plates, Ball Joint Plates, Inverted Tiles, Ball
Joint Pins, Horn, Tiles, Large Cheese Slopes w/Studs, Tooth
Plates, Wedge Studless Slopes, Studless Slopes, Bushings,
Brackets, Half Pin, Gear, and Round Large Jumper.


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+).  There's a fair amount of useful parts here.  I'm just annoyed that some of them are Charcoal Grey instead of Black.  I understand needing contrast for the build but I would have preferred all Black pieces.
