Next up the Cragsters! I try to have fun when making this reviews and I hope that comes across. That fun I think is a bit on showcase with this review. I had some hopes to maybe make 'astroid ships' from this sets but didn't really work out. Maybe I should ask for some help from the
Hanger? Anyways, let's get to it. First up is...
Krader

Can you build some sort of creation right away?
I sort of got a creepy simple frame out of it but I like it! +5 Points
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? The Golden Ratio is $0.10 per part
$4.99/66= $0.08 per part making this under the ratio for +5

Can you build some sort of creation right away?
I got cool looking frame and neat spaceship but the ship is more of a HVA then a frigate or a capital ship. 5+ earned!

Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? The Golden Ratio is $0.10 per part
$4.99/50= $0.10 per parts (rounding up) makes this right on the Golden Ratio for +0 points which is better then losing points!

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?
Absolutely, I built a frame and a spaceship! +5 points

Well, you are a tall glass of water! |
Does it have more than a handful of immediately useful parts?
This one seems a bit tighter in parts but still makes the cut at +5
Total: This set is an A, just short of earning it's + status but not a surprise showing from a mixel set though.
Shuff

The Bag |
Well, in the middle of doing Shuff's photo taking and building I had to stop and put everything away. Somehow I have misplaced this Mixel and have no build/photos of Shuff the set. Also, I was not able to build the Cragster MAX either but you can check out that Max here.

Frame Build, I like the legs! |
Can you build some sort of creation right away?
Again I got a Frame and a spaceship (some what on the fragile side) build from this set. I like the frame and it's legs specifically, even though it turned out differently then my intention. +5 points.

Spaceship! |
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? The Golden Ratio is $0.10 per part
$4.99/ 51 = $0.10 per part, another Cragster breaking off evenly for +0 points!

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?
When you can build a frame, this answer is usually yes. This set is no different for +5
Does it have more than a handful of immediately useful parts?
Good amount of useful parts, I think over all it has more frame parts then the other Cragster bags. +5 points
Total: And the Last set for the Cragsters is another A set which isn't bad at all!
Final Thoughts: We have a lot of good parts with none of the sets going below the ratio but not a lot of exciting colors so some might frown on that. I like me some grey so all good for me!
