Out of all the IPs that have been adapted into Lego form, there’s one popular franchise that’s been under-served….where are the Lego sets for One Piece? Think of the spectacular and exotic locations on the Grand Line you could build! Think of a brick-constructed Going Merry or Thousand Sunny! Think of a world where Buggy wouldn’t feel so powerful because EVERYBODY’S limbs are removable.
