Zane Julien (shortened to Zane on the fun pack) is one of the Fun Pack characters in LEGO Dimensions. He appears in 71217 Fun Pack for the Ninjago franchise.
Background[]
Zane was originally found and recruited by Sensei Wu when he was found trying to hold his own breath underwater. Zane was taken to the dojo, where he was trained to be the Ninja of Ice, and eventually became the Elemental Master of Ice. Zane, Cole, and Jay were the three original ninjas, who were tasked with helping Kai become the latest Ninja.
It was later revealed that Zane was a Nindroid, created by Dr. Julien. Now knowing who he was, Zane became the first ninja to unlock his true potential. Zane handled the news surprisingly well. Zane later helped to fight against the Stone Army, a legion of indestructible warriors led by Lord Garmadon and The Overlord. During their quest to stop the Final Battle from happening, Zane was reunited with his father and creator, Dr. Julien. After Lloyd defeated the Overlord and his father was turned back to normal, peace resumed in Ninjago until Pythor returned, aiding the Overlord in becoming the Golden Master and commanding the Nindroid army. The Ninja clashed with the robots until a climactic battle ensued at Borg Tower. There, Zane sacrificed himself to destroy the Overlord once and for all, which resulted in both of them being killed in the process. This sent Kai, Jay and Cole off to look for new occupations, as they were saddened by the loss of their friend. Unbeknownst to them, Zane had rebuilt himself in a new, titanium body, yet he was captured by Ronin as hired by Chen to manipulate the Ninja into the Tournament of Elements.
When Lloyd attempted to get the team back together, Cole, Kai and Jay were very reluctant, but when they found out that Zane was still alive, they joined together once more. The ninja, accompanied by Sensei Garmadon, journeyed to Chen's Island to compete in the mysterious Tournament of Elements. Zane, Cole and the other Elemental Masters that were eliminated formed a breakout plan. The Ninja reunited, but when Chen's true plans unfolded, and all the competitors of the Tournament allied with the Ninja. Ninjago was put in danger once more, but the threat was eliminated when Chen's army was defeated at the Corridor of Elders.

Trivia[]
- In LEGO Dimensions, Zane uses his design from the second half of 2015 sets and episodes. However, his accessory is the Shurikens of Ice, which were destroyed in the show before this outfit was introduced.
- In the television series, Zane is voiced by Brent Miller. He does not reprise the role of Zane in the game.
- His quote when seeing Slimer is a reference to Season 5 of Ninjago, where he and the other ninja have battled an army of evil ghosts.
- Just like Eris and Shaggy, he has a line when entering his vehicle, he feels that it is more snug than he can remember. This is mainly due to the vehicles/gadgets being a micro build instead of being the regular size.
- Zane's blueprints were involuntarily used to create the Nindroid Army.
- He is the only Ninja not to appear in Elements of Surprise (because at the time in which the level takes place, Zane was imprisoned in Chen's dungeon).
- In spite of being robots/androids, he and the Cyberman can swim underwater.
- Lloyd's spoken line to him, along with many of Zane's own lines, reference his sacrificial efforts against the Overlord in the TV show in which he overloaded his heart to explode in an icy blast which shattered the Overlord and much of his army into pieces, but at the cost of Zane's life.
- His Toy Tag is based on his 2015 Ninja of Ice suit and the main symbol is his Ninja of Ice symbol.
- He is one of the two playable Ninjago characters that does not appear in the Surprise Element level along with Nya.
- In this version of events, Zane was probably held prisoner in Chen's lair because the Ninjas escaped the island when Luthor attacked. Unless after the destruction of Chen's lair during the level, his cell could have been destroyed and he managed to escape.
- He is one of three characters to have multiple reactions to himself, the other two being Sonic the Hedgehog and Betelgeuse.
