We Take A Look At The One Piece World Figure Colosseum 2024 Entries
BATTLE FOR THE CROWN
The One Piece World Figure Colosseum 2024 is currently up and running, and the three sculptures are available for pre-order now from the Premium Bandai store.
What is the One Piece World Figure Colosseum?
The One Piece World Figure Colosseum is a prodigious clash of figure sculpting inspired by Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece. The Banpresto World Figure Colosseum – The King Summit Decisive Battle commenced in 2010, and renowned sculptors pitted against each other in an intense battle of artistry, expertise, and imagination. After a four-year interlude, the tournament is back in 2024, and sculptors are joining Bandai Namco’s brand development reps, who are ready for the initial team battle. The artist’s reputations are at stake as they fiercely compete for the highly desirable title of “King Of Sculpting”.
FEATURED PRODUCTS
One Piece World Collectable Figure – Egghead ver.
Sculptor: STUDIO–Ren, Kato Ren
This unique diorama-like sculpture features ten One Piece characters grouped to create an extra sense of depth to this beautiful sculpture. This mini figure creation is based upon the cover illustration from Volume 106 of Egghead One Piece, and it manages to replicate it perfectly. The figure's facial expressions are so beautifully sculpted, and the colours make the whole model pop.
Available to pre-order now until the 30th of October 2024. Delivery is scheduled for July 2025.
One Piece King Of Artist the Marshall. D. Teach
Sculptor: Manabu Yamashita
This 3d version of Blackbeard, leader of one of the four toughest pirate crews in the world, is a fantastic iteration of the evil pirate. The level of detail involved in this sculpture is outstanding; the multiple guns in his waistband, the dirty, grimy pirate fingernails on the ends of his ring-laden fingers and the shock of the orange cloak all come together to create a genuinely lifelike Blackbeard figure. This sculpt reflects the extreme evil that flows through Blackbeard’s veins and exudes extreme terror through the finest colouring techniques.
Available to pre-order now until the 17th October 2024. Delivery scheduled for May 2025.
One Piece DXF – The Grandline Series – Gaimon & Sarfunkel
Sculptor: Yuuta Fukuie
Sarfunkel is described as a barrel woman (as she is stuck in a barrel), and she is best friends with Gaimon, who is stuck in a chest; they live on the Island of Rare Animals. These two unique sculpts encompass the friendship between these two characters as Sarfunkel feeds Gaimon. The details involved in these models are elite and the sculptor has successfully captured the aged look on the barrel and the chest. Gaimon’s hair looks like it exudes the scent of foliage, and the curls and texture of Sarfunkel’s locks are so realistic.
Available to pre-order now until the 18th of August 2024. Delivery is scheduled for February 2025.
