Average

#91 of 199 City sets under 200 pieces

No City set under 200 pieces gives more plastic per dollar than these road plates, nearly twice its group’s typical rate. But with no minifigures and fewer pieces per $10 than usual (45 against 57), it scores average overall, even at about 20% below similar contents; it makes sense if roads are what you need.
