Great value

#19 of 178 Friends sets under 200 pieces

Two figures for $9.99 is the big draw here, more than twice the usual rate for small Friends sets. Pieces per $10 (78 against 68) and plastic per dollar are a bit above typical, builders rate it 3.8 of 5, and it costs about 25% less than similar contents (around $13), which makes it great value.
