Review: 76073 Mighty Micros Wolverine vs Magneto

 I'm digging back into the backlog again, this is my last Mighty Micro set for the moment.

Box.  MSRP was $9.99 for this which gives us a $0.12 Price per Piece.

Instructions.

Parts 1.  Axle Plates, Inverted Slope w/Cutout, Wedge Plates, Tires,

Curved Slopes 2x1x1.3 w/Recessed Stud, Bar Tile, Minifig Steering

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? Above. (-10) (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: +5 (B+).  The builds are a little rough but can be a foundation for something better.
