Zane in Honor Robes and Hair (Day of the Departed)

The Zane in Honor Robes minifigure is highly sought after by Ninjago collectors due to its unique design and association with the 'Day of the Departed' special. The honor robes signify a special occasion within the Ninjago storyline, adding to the minifigure's appeal.

This version of Zane features a unique hairpiece in flat silver and detailed torso printing with a golden lion motif, setting it apart from his standard ninja attire. The shoulder pads with katana scabbards are also exclusive, making this minifigure a desirable addition to any Ninjago collection. Condition is key, as pristine printing and undamaged accessories will command a higher value.

This minifigure is relatively rare, as it was only available in one set: the 'Zane' polybag (891724-1) released in 2017. As a promotional polybag, its availability was limited, contributing to its scarcity on the aftermarket. While not a regional exclusive, its limited release window and the fact that the set is now retired increase its desirability among collectors.

Given its rarity and the enduring popularity of the Ninjago theme, the Zane in Honor Robes minifigure has solid investment potential. The value has remained steady, with the potential to increase as the available supply diminishes and the Ninjago fanbase continues to grow. Comparable minifigures with unique designs from limited-release sets have seen significant appreciation over time.
