BANDAI SPIRITS' BANPRESTO prize figure brand is expanding its "MAXIMATIC PLUS" line with two new figures from the popular anime "One Piece." The "MAXIMATIC PLUS" series offers even more intricate detail than the already impressive "MAXIMATIC" line, known for its overwhelming sense of volume and satisfaction. These new releases, "Luffy Marineford ver." and "Ace Marineford ver.," are slated for release as prize figures in January and February 2027, respectively.
The Marineford Summit War was a colossal conflict, considered the greatest battle since the Great Pirate Era began. It erupted when the Whitebeard Pirates and their vast allied forces clashed with the Marine Headquarters and the Seven Warlords of the Sea to rescue Portgas D. Ace, the Second Division Commander, who was slated for execution. Although Whitebeard's dying words solidified pirates' belief in the "One Piece," the subsequent power vacuum created by the fall of one of the Four Emperors profoundly reshaped the world's balance.
While multiple product images for the "Luffy Marineford ver.," set for a January release, have been unveiled, BANPRESTO also shared photos showcasing it alongside the "Ace Marineford ver." These figures are designed to recreate the iconic scene from anime episode 480, where the brothers fight side-by-side after Ace's successful rescue, striking symmetrical battle poses! The sculpting meticulously captures their muscular physiques and the intricate folds of their clothing. Scrapes and battle damage from the intense war are also faithfully reproduced with etched details. Ace features translucent flame effects on his back, arms, and legs, while Luffy's base extends with Ace's flames. Collecting both figures allows fans to perfectly recreate this classic moment – you definitely won't want to separate them!
