A book with 70 pieces and zero minifigs isn't a LEGO® set — it's a bookmark with extra steps. The D grade here isn't harsh; it's generous.
Is the price fair?D+N/A — it's a book product, not a set priced by the usual math.

The Full Take
Ninjago: 5-Minute Builds is exactly what it says on the cover — and that's the problem. Seventy pieces spread across a book-format product with no minifigs and no lasting build to show for it leaves almost nothing to recommend. The 'best' thing here is reportedly what you get, which scoring at a 5.3 out of 10 says plenty on its own. Build sessions clocking in as the weakest element means even the core LEGO® promise — the act of building — feels thin. There's no shelf piece to display, no character to play with, no technique to geek out over. This one exists, and that's about the kindest thing to say about it.
