Portgas D. Ace and Marshall D. Teach’s use fire and darkness to fight in a stunning and brutal new One Piece figurine. The price tag is shocking.
A beautiful One Piece figurine brings to life the brutal fight between Portgas D. Ace and Marshall D. Teach (also known as Blackbeard).
The statue, which you can pre-order on Sideshow, shows both logia Devil Fruit users surrounded by their own elements—fire for Ace and darkness for Blackbeard. The fantastic collectible has a lot of details in both the characters’ clothes and faces, and the high-quality sculpting comes with a price tag that is just as shocking. The price of the Portgas D. Ace vs. Marshall D. Teach statue is $654, and each person can only buy one.
The first chapter of Eiichiro Oda’s ongoing manga One Piece came out in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump in 1997. Since then, there have been well over 1,000 separate chapters. The story is about a young captain, Monkey D. Luffy, who wants to become the next King of the Pirates. He and his colorful crew of pirates, which includes a sword that can’t tell which way is north and an archaeologist who can grow extra limbs, go on an adventure across the Grand Line to find the hidden treasure. One Piece is the best-selling manga of all time. More than 516 million copies have been sold all over the world.
Fans of Oda’s pirate-themed masterpiece don’t have to buy just copies of the manga or the new, expensive figurine of Ace and Blackbeard’s epic battle. There are other ways to spend money on pirate-themed art. For example, Lush now sells bath bombs based on Devil Fruit, and Bandai just came out with a new line of Tamagotchis that let kids raise and care for their own Chopper.
Also, One Piece fans must show how much they like it by buying collectibles. They also make pirate-themed art and cosplay to show how much they like it. A former Riot Games employee posted a 3D animation of the Warlord of the Sea Crocodile that showed off the character’s sand-based powers and signature cigar.
In recent years, there have been many examples of well-made cosplay costumes. Reddit user mia green tea posted a picture of their attractive version of One Piece‘s Snake Princess Boa Hancock. The photo perfectly recreated Boa Hancock’s original hairstyle and red V-neck blouse. The gender-swapped version of Edward Weevil, the self-proclaimed son of the Strongest Man in the World, Edward “Whitebeard” Newgate, that costume designer master Kappy w showed off was pretty funny.
