Theme
Ninjago
Year Released
2014 - Released as part of the third season of the Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu TV series wave.
Rarity
Uncommon. While available in a mid-priced set, this specific 'battle scarred' version is unique to that set and was replaced by many other Zane variants afterward.
Head
Yellow head with determined expression, silver 'robotic' panels visible on the sides/cheek, and flat-top blonde hair piece. A white wrap-around mask covers the lower face.
Torso
White robe design with a silver sash and belt. Features a prominent blue 'power core' symbol on the chest with electrical discharge/scarring patterns around it. Plain white arms and black hands.
Legs
Plain white legs with a white hip piece. Minimalist design to match the clean aesthetic of the Rebooted ninja uniforms.
Accessories
Usually comes with silver Techno-Blades or katanas in the sets; this specific image shows the figure without held accessories.
Color Scheme
White and Silver primary colors with minor blue and gold accents for the power core and sash details.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso front and back. The torso features detailed 'damage' printing to represent his internal circuitry showing through.
Variants
Standard Rebooted Zane (njo094) has a clean torso without the battle damage; Titanium Zane is a later evolution with a full metallic body.
Condition Notes
The white plastic is prone to yellowing if exposed to UV light. Check for torso cracks under the arms and paint wear on the silver sash printing.

Appeared in set 70726 (Destructoid) which retailed for $34.99 USD.
Compatible Sets

Character Background
Zane is the Elemental Master of Ice and a Nindroid (ninja robot). During the Rebooted arc, he discovers he is a machine and eventually sacrifices himself to defeat the Golden Master.
Design Notes
The 'Battle Scarred' torso is a fan favorite because it hints at Zane's mechanical nature before his full 'Titanium' transformation.
Similar Minifigures
njo094 (Rebooted Zane), njo130 (Titanium Zane), and other 2014 Rebooted Ninja (Kai, Jay, Cole).
Collectibility
Moderate. It is essential for collectors wanting to complete the Rebooted team or those documenting Zane's various robotic states.
History
This figure marks the mid-point transition for Zane between his human appearance and his silver Titanium form introduced in 2015.
Interesting Facts
The blue circle on the chest is the 'Power Source' provided by Cyrus Borg during the battle against the Overlord's digital virus.
Display Suggestions
Looks best placed alongside the other 'Tech' ninja or near Cyrus Borg and P.I.X.A.L minifigures.
Modification Potential
The robotic facial printing makes it a great part for custom futuristic or sci-fi cyborg MOCs.
Overall Assessment
A solid, era-defining minifigure with unique 'damaged' printing that makes it stand out from typical clean-suit ninja variations.
