Good value

#10 of 51 Ideas sets with 1,000+ pieces

The Orange Cat leads nearly every big Ideas set on contents: more than twice the typical plastic per dollar and about 173 pieces per $10 against 99, at a $99.99 price roughly 44% below what its contents usually cost. An early 4.1 rating from eight builders and no minifigures keep it at good value rather than great.
