Lego One Piece rumors and discussion

[brickbride]

Do you mean the EUR 130 set, or did the price change?

Makes sense, though, because like I've said the Baratie is a lot bigger than the Merry and displaying both would otherwise be awkward.

Plus that way they can lock Mihawk behind a EUR 300 paywall. *sigh*

Oh, my bad! Yes, it‘s still $130

Pretty likely. Oh well

[brickbride]

Assuming that the Baratie set will include the duel with Mihawk, this would give us at the very least the following characters and outfits:

Mihawk (presumably exclusive to this set) with dashing feathered hat, open black-and-red coat, and no shirt wielding sword Yoru (and small knife? The standard LEGO knife is a different shape but they might well include it. Or they might just print the knife on Mihawk's torso I guess.)

Zoro in duel outfit (dark pants and boots, dark red striped haramaki sash, dark blue shirt, black bandana) with all three swords (and some way to carry Wado in his mouth, i.e. a trans-clear neck brace or something)

Luffy in Baratie outfit (red shirt with green dungarees or possibly the blue-white shirt from the Arlong fight but I'd expect the former, and of course the leaked straw hat/black hair piece)

Usopp in dark red coat with no shirt and then either the dark red tricorn hat from the first day or the red bandana hairpiece that's already leaked from the second day, I'd expect the latter

Nami in Baratie outfit (pink shirt, short orange skirt)

Zeff (presumably exclusive to this set) with peg leg in chef's outfit with towering hat (he doesn't always wear it and at one point he wears a red-and-white striped shirt, but the chef's whites and towering hat are too much fun to leave them out)

Sanji (black suit, striped shirt, black tie - though he doesn't always wear the suit jacket so it might be missing)

Other than that, there's some cooks or pirates (say, the two whose fight in the dining room Sanji breaks up), the fishman host, Gin the shipwrecked pirate, or of course Arlong harrassing some fancily-dressed diners to chose from. Another option might be the visit by the marines in episode 7 (Garp, Kody, Helmeppo).

For the Merry I'd expect the main cast in the outfits from the end of episode 8:

Luffy - straw Hat with black hair (as per leak), red vest torso (as per leak though probably without the stretched arms which should belong to the Arlong Park set), blue cut-off pants. (He wears the same thing at Shells Town but I don't think we'll get a set of that.)

Zoro - green hair and no bandana, white shirt, green striped haramaki sash, black boots and pants. (He also wears the same thing in the Marine Base fight though he puts on the bandana during it.)

Nami - white-and-blue shirt, orange skirt (the same skirt as on the Baratie, I think, so they could repurpose it).

Usopp - brown dungarees, no shirt, red bandana hair piece (as per leak - the same bandana as on the Baratie)

Sanji - black suit (so the entire outfit could be repurposed, too)

CALLED IT! The ONLY thing I got wrong was switching Merry and Arlong Park around. ;-)

Found in the usual place:

75636 Partys Bar 301 pieces EUR 30 - Figs would include Shanks, young Luffy, and possibly Makino or the bandit (I don't really expect more than three figs at the most, possibly only two given that both Shanks and Luffy would have to be exclusive). This would also be the setting where Shanks hands over the hat so that's presumably what the leaked hat piece is for.

75637 Buggy's Circus 537 pieces EUR 50 - anyone else expect a spinning wheel? I sure do! - Figs would be Buggy, Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and possibly Cabuji. Zoro's and Nami's outfits in that episode are the same as in the duel with Mihawk/the final scene of episode 8, so they might be repurposed here and on the Baratie/Going Merry. (At least I think Zoro's outfit is the same - the shirt looks green rather than blue in the circus tent but that might be the lighting.)

75638 Arlong Park 926 pieces EUR 80 - I cannot see this giving us more than 8 figs at the very most, so that's the Straw Hats (5) + Arlong (1) + one or two fishmen for them to fight? Luffy wears the same outfit in this scene as in the final episode of episode 8, the red vest that's already been leaked (and the stretched arms would make sense here). It's noteworthy that Nami is wearing Luffy's hat throughout that scene, I'm not sure how LEGO's going to solve this.

75639 Going Merry 1376 pieces EUR 130

75640 Baratie 18+ 3402 pieces EUR 300

Also it's said that we get "at least" 6 more sets in 2026. Presumably these will be based off season 2.

Extremely good news! This theme is the one I'm most excited for. It has so much potential.

Now, do you guys think we could get Roger as a bonus figure in the Merry set and Don Krieg in the Baratie set as an easter egg of the anime/manga? If the 2026 sets are based on the second season I don't see a way we could get these characters (specially Roger given he is a extremely important character).

Also, I don't want to sound pessimistic but in case the live action is cancelled after season 3, do you think LEGO will still making sets for this theme but based on the anime? I really really want an ark Noah set but I believe is unlikely the live action reach to that part of the story.

[Scarilian]

In terms of sets the main appeal I think lies in the Baratie and Going Merry, though I have concerns over how they'll handle the Going Merry at that scale. I also think they may run into some trouble with the fish head for the Baratie.

In terms of figures, I imagine it'll be something like:

• Partys bar: Shanks, Young Luffy, Makino, Higuma
• Buggys Circus: Buggy, Luffy, Nami, Zoro
• Arlong Park: Luffy, Nami, Sanjii, Usopp, Arlong, Chew, Kuroobi, Nojiko
• Going Merry: Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Sanjii, Usopp
• Baratie: Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Sanjii, Usopp, Mihawk, Zeff, Koby, Helmeppo, Garp

Weird that we are seemingly skipping Axe-Hand Morgan despite him being the antagonist that brough the main trio together. I get not including Alvida but you'd think we'd have got the antagonist from the first episode. Also odd for them not to adapt Kaya, Kuro or Merry despite the two-part episode focused on them. If we don't get Garp, Koby or Helmeppo in one of these sets then that'll be a disappointment also - which is why I hope they bundle them into Baratie.

If sales are strong they'll keep going, but I do think the live-action is at risk of ending with Season 3 unless they can get a consistent plan together for filming and releasing regularly.

I'd imagine the next wave of Lego sets will be based on Series 2 (Loguetown, Reverse Mountain, Whisky Peak, Little Garden, Drum Island) though they could always revisit some Season 1 aspects. 

A potential third wave of sets for Season 3 (2027?), which at the moment looks to be solely focused on Arabasta, would then likely serve as the last main wave.

If they ever do switch to the anime I would'nt generally put the Ark Noah as a candidate for adaptation anytime soon, given the size and visuals. I think a set like Thousand Sunny would be more likely.

Honestly I am not surprised on both counts. The Morgan and Buggy episodes feature the same Straw Hat trio but the Buggy one wins out by having a more visually appealing setting and a flashier villain (who appears in more episodes, too). And while prosthetics for minifigs are a recent LEGO thing, an axe for a hand is hardly kid-friendly and might well look silly in minifig form.

Syrup Village has, again, the least visually interesting setting compared to say the Baratie or Arlong Park. And it’s the darkest and least kid-friendly arc; not that the others are necessarily less violent but all the poisoning and stalking people through secret passageways screams thriller more than swashbuckling adventure. Plus Sham and Buchi seem to be one-off characters with no further plot relevance and if Kuro shows up again later they can always include him in a set then.

So here's my best guess:

• 75636 - 301 Pieces, $29.99 - Windmill Village/whatever with Shanks (Lord of the Coast fight?): Shanks, young Luffy, Makino?
• 75637 - 573 Pieces - $49.99 - Orange Town: Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Buggy, Cabuji?
• 75639 - 1376 Pieces - $129.99 - Arlong Park/Coco Village: Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Usopp (green bandana), Sanji, Arlong, one or two of Arlong's henchfish? Alternatively Garp & Marines (Kody, Helmeppo, Nezumi)?
• 75638 - 926 Pieces - $79.99 - Merry: all the Straw Hats possibly including Kaya
• 75640 - 3,402 Pieces - $299.99 - Baratie: all the Straw Hats, Mihawk, Zeff, Arlong?

Nicely done, you were just about spot on!

what would Garp and Koby do at Arlong Park? (Round up the beaten fishmen presumably but this was never shown in the actual episode.)

Total mandela effect lol, for some reason I remembered them showing up there at the end of the live-action series.

[BrickBob Studpants]

I started to watch the show today and am halfway through S1! Not that I doubted it, but people are right, it‘s likely the best live-action manga/anime adaptation ever made! Now I‘m even more looking forward to the sets

Glad to see we‘re getting a set based on the flashbacks as well!

[BrickBob Studpants]

Too bad we're not getting anything based on the Syrup Village arc, but it makes sense with only 5 sets. The rumoured sets are all more relevant in the grand scheme of things anyway. Fingers crossed we're also getting some nice accessories in these sets, like the gum-gum fruit in the Partys Bar set, Mihawk's tiny sword (knife?) in the Baratie, and/or a transponder snail  (not sure where the latter would fit tho)

[brickbride]

The Gum Gum fruit I expect we'll get. Since Yoru probably already needs a new sword mould I"m less sure about Mihawk's knife. And pretty much the only way they could do a Transponder snail is with a stickered or printed tile, I'd think, in which case they might as well not bother as far as I'm concerned.

The number of new pieces for minifig parts is already impressive, so I wonder how many newly-moulded weapon pieces or accessories we can expect! Yoru would probably look weird if it was comprised of existing pieces, so a specialised one might be necessary. Arlong‘s sword on the other hand could well be made out of available pieces and Usopps‘s slingshot could be the usual piece recoloured in green

Transponder snail would be amazing, I hope they do it.

I think theres probably already a handful of Swords they could use for Yoru. I also think the fruit could be fine if they used the standard "apple" piece in purple and then printed the swirls on it. I don't see a new piece happening for one set, and the smallest one.

I hope that as many custom pieces as possible are used for Arlong and crew.

Kuroobi could be realised with two existing pieces, namely the S27 Pterodactyl costume‘s arms and Nezha‘s hairpiece. Not a perfect match, but close enough!

Arlong himself surely needs at least one new piece. A similar hat exists, but it has to be a new hat-hair combo piece to do the character justice. Not sure about the nose.. They can‘t omit it since it‘s integral to his design, so it‘s either a print or a Pinocchio-esque piece. Or maybe they combine the head, hair, and hat into a single moulded piece

Don't tempt them ( I jest, I know they'll have already made that decision by now) separate parts would be much more useful for repurposing for other contexts!

[brickbride]

The usual place has new rumours around April's Fool Day sorted by whether they're considered real or not. There's one called "Luffy Brickheadz" which is filed under "definitely coming, no info though".

HP has had packs of five brickheads (one for Prisoner of Azkaban comes to mind), how about the Straw Hat Crew? Though the fact that it's called Luffy Brickheadz as opposed to something else makes me think it's maybe just a two-pack of Luffy and someone else like Shanks or Buggy the Clown. Then they could do Zoro paired with Mihawk next, and Nami with Arlong or Nojiko, and Usopp with Kaya or Yasopp, and Sanji with Zeff.

Edited April 3 by brickbride

[BrickBob Studpants]

While I hope for the whole crew in BrickHeadz form, this may take a while, based on how long it took for other characters. It took us years to get some Potter, Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars characters, and even for smaller themes like Stranger Things, Sonic, and Lord of the Rings, they like to spread things out

[Bloquerto]

Do you guys think we will get set images today? 

I feel the sets will be officially revealed the same day of the Netflix TUDUM event because there will be news about the live action show there.

That would make sense! There’s also the upcoming Stranger Things Brickheadz set they could reveal there. Fingers crossed!!

[THELEGOBATMAN]

I hope we won't have to wait long, I need those images to plan my budget accordingly.

Easily my most anticipated sets of this year, not to mention it'll be ongoing with more sets next year. My wallet will be in so much pain.

I dunno about this. Not sure how you can make an interesting Lego set out of One Piece...

Most likely the case as the sets are meant to release in August, would be a good time to reveal them along with the rest of the One Piece Live Action information.

Have they ever revealed any kind of merchandise at Tudum though? I'm not sure if that's something they'll be focusing on.
