==History==
===''LittleBigPlanet''===
Ze Dude frequently causes trouble around The Metropolis, engaging in delinquent activities directed towards its Creator Curator [[Mags the Mechanic]]. In his first stunt after Sackboy arrives with [[Uncle Jalapeño]], he steals Mags' favorite ride, dueling Sackboy in a street race to win it back. The race abruptly ends when Ze Dude is sent careening off an unfinished road into the city sewers. While Mags and Sackboy venture down into the [[Subway]] to retrieve her sunken wheels, Ze Dude — with some assistance by [[The Collector (Creator Curator)|the Collector]] — fly back up to the surface where he continues his streak of destruction. 

Sackboy ascends Mags' [[The Construction Site|construction site]] to face down Ze Dude, who, along with his two Bouncers, has been raining down fireballs into the site. Once at the top, the three challenge Sackboy to a final battle, where Ze Dude is dispatched with his own fireball launcher. Respectful of Sackboy's victory, Ze Dude encourages his victor to visit his teacher, [[Grandmaster Sensei]], at her [[The Islands|Islands]].
