Review: 70330 Nexo Knights Ultimate Clay

Digging into the backlog for another small set nets us a Nexo Knights Ultimate set.

Box.  MSRP was $9.99.  Original Price per Piece was $0.14.
I paid $6.98 for this which gives a $0.10 Price per Piece.



Instructions.








Minifig.

Parts 1.  Dish, Angled Plates,
Plates, Wedge Plates, Flames,
 Printed Pentagonal Tiles, Ball
Joint Plates, and a Brick.






Parts 2.  Large Jumpers, Hinge Bricks, Jumpers, Ball Joint Plates, Ball Joint
Pins, Bar Plate (open end), Large Cheese Slopes, Plates, Grille Tiles, Clip
Plates, Apollo Studs, Half Pins, Clip Bars, Gem, Pneuma-Ts, Pin Connectors,
Lightsaber Hilts, Printed Pentagonal Tile, Sword Blades, and Exo-Force Arm.


Build.  A Melee (2Rh+d8) frame.

The Questions:
Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away?  Yes.  (+5)
Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio?  Above.  (-10)  (The Golden Ratio is $0.10 per part.)
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?  Yes.  (+5)
Does it have more than a handful of immediately useful parts?  Yes.  (+5)
Score: +5 (B+).  There are some really cool parts in this set.  At the clearance price the score would be +15 (A).
