Makes sense to me though since he didn’t have a bounty on his head, I assume, and thus no wanted posters He was a king in self-imposed exile, after all! 25 minutes ago, Lyichir said: I'm not sure how well the Baroque Works business cards would work as a replacement... if they did them as 1x2 tiles or whatnot, they'd be pretty small... not room for a ton of detail, and without full portraits you'd lose the fun "Lego" aspect of the minifigure-ized posters. True. I was thinking of 2x2 tiles, despite business cards obviously being rectangular rather than square ^^ Quote
BlueLanturnCorp Posted March 22 Posted March 22 I suppose you could do the cards as the wanted poster size. It would make them too large, but if they had less detailed 1x2 tiles for figures to hold and had the larger tiles as separate things to display it could work. Quote

Could work, but then the question is what the cards are in the context of the set The wanted posters work both as a collectible and as the in-universe thing, but these cards would not make much sense in-universe. The chocolate frog cards from HP were also oversized but still worked better scale-wise than giant business cards! Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted March 25 Posted March 25 According to Unibricks on IG, the sets are getting revealed on April 9th! Fingers crossed that’s true!! Quote
BlueLanturnCorp Posted Wednesday at 03:32 PM Posted Wednesday at 03:32 PM I wonder if we'll get the new hat/hair used on the Monster Hunter CMF on Nico Robin or a possible Alvida? Quote

I suppose that hair could maybe be used for Alvida! Probably not Robin though, her hair is more straight/less wavy, and as a major character they'll probably make her a hair/hat piece of her own.

brickbride Posted Thursday at 03:52 AM Posted Thursday at 03:52 AM (edited) Does anyone really expect for us to get Alvida? I don't. She's a comparatively minor character and she'd only fit in the Loguetown set where Buggy, Smoker, and Tashigi are all more popular/viable options. Maybe even Dragon (simply because he'd neatly fit into a scene with Luffy, Sanji, and Smoker.) I very much doubt they'd give us another circus tent right after the first one so I'm expecting Loguetown to focus on Smoker, not Buggy or Alvida. Possibly Tashigi, too, for her duel with popular main character Zoro but like I've said before I could see LEGO skipping her and just putting her in the marine ship.

Tashigi could easily be included in the Marine Ship, opening up a slot in the smaller set If Bunny (heh) is in there, I‘d expect Alvida as well. Dragon on the other hand only has a glorified cameo so his inclusion would be pretty strange. Quote

Lyichir Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago Thing that just occurred to me... wonder if Robin's Flower-Flower Fruit powers will be represented visually in any of the sets? An accessory piece to add extra arms to her or to other figs could be neat (could even potentially be done without new parts using something like the "minion arm" with Technic pin that appears in light nougat in some of this year's mini Disney Princesses).

BrickBob Studpants Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago Pictures of two sets leaked, namely Dr Hiriluk & Chopper‘s Hideout and the buildable Chopper! The small set is fantastic Awesome to see Dr Kureha too! Looks like everyone was wrong, Chopper is neither a minifig nor a baby fig, it‘s a new piece with regular minifig hands and a minifig head! Love it! Quote
strangely Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago (edited) On 3/20/2026 at 3:39 AM, BrickBob Studpants said: If it’s indeed the baby torso and head, then we have two problems: 1) How would they attach the hat since baby heads only have a bar-sized mini-stud as a connection point, and 2) how would the same hat fit both a baby and a minifig? After all, the hat doesn’t magically grow in size when Chopper transforms Of course they could have designed two hats, one with the head attached (meaning only one facial expression was possible then) and the other without, but that doesn’t solve the size issue New pics leaked of the sets and we're both wrong, the body is just a new mould entirely! Looks like it's a new toddler sized minifigure body, bigger than the baby but smaller than a child. It has standard minifigure hands and uses the standard minifigure head. Legs might be removable or they're dual molded, hard to say at this point. The sets look great too Edit: you beat me to it lol Edited 9 hours ago by strangely Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago (edited) Pictures of all sets are out!! They all look fantastic!! Holy cow!! Dragon, Mr 3, Miss Goldenweek, Miss All Sunday, Vivi, and even the bloody Unluckies?! And I was right, we‘re getting a collectable gimmick with the Baroque Works members, but dossiers rather than business cards Too bad we don‘t get the other Baroque Works agents as minifigs, but the printed tiles are a good consolation prize ^^ Edited 8 hours ago by BrickBob Studpants Quote
icm Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago Looks like there's something for everybody here: A couple of late-antiquity/medieval/viking-styled buildable characters for folks who like that kind of warrior and buildable figure A pretty decent gray castle to fill with the faction of your choice, although you might want to buy two copies in order to have a back for it A big sailing ship with two gun decks, although the style is more of an early sailing ironclad than of an earlier pirate ship A modern city scene with a couple of small buildings and a motorcycle A buildable nonhuman character who is intended to look cute and comes out looking cursed A wintry forest hideout for a castle or fantasy scene I am so behind on ships. So many great ships to get, available now. I was able to snag the Temple Bounty without minifigures (I backfilled with minifigures from the 15th Anniversary Minifig Display instead) and I placed an order for the Fortuna, but I'm still missing: the Endurance the Black Pearl the Going Merry the River Steamboat the Maersk container ship Garp's Marine Battleship and the rumored Creator pirate ship coming later this year I'm so behind on a lot of things ... better not list them all Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago I can‘t get over how good these sets are!! I think I might like them even more than the S1 sets While I mourn some of the missing characters (particularly Mr 5, Miss Valentine, Mr 9, Igaram, Alvida, and Dalton), the ones we unexpectedly do get make up for that in my book ^^ And it‘s nice to see them putting every Strawhat in at least two sets! Now I‘m wondering how many different collectable dossiers we‘re gonna get. My guess is 8 again, even though that doesn‘t even begin to cover all the BW agents Quote
