Mini-Rank

Mini-Ranks are pseudo-Ranks that, when completed, awards a special Module, Badge, or other prize that is not necessary for MLN. Some of the Mini-rank rewards can help you earn items faster or cheaper. Mini-Ranks also have their own special Networkers and Items. Some Mini-ranks require an Item be discovered on the general LEGO website to start. Mini-Ranks are generally simpler and easier than standard Ranks. There are currently 6 Mini-Ranks.
