Luffy’s journey begins in the live action adaptation of the popular anime of the same name.

Luffy, Shanks and Makino in order to set the scene. This set contains 299 pieces.
Iconic location – Model seaside hut for boys and girls ages 8 and over to build, display and recreate scenes from the series.
Removable wall and roof – Kids can remove the roof of the building and the wall on the right of the building to reveal a bar to serve and entertain customers.
3 Minifigures – Comes with three minifigures from the series: Monkey D. Luffy, Shanks and Makino.
Dimensions – A 299 piece set based on the location of the start of the anime One Piece, measuring over 5 inches (13 centimeters) high, 6.75 inches (17 centimeters) long, and 8 inches (20 centimeters) wide. The pirate boat is over 4 inches (10 centimeters) long and 1.75 inches (4 centimeters) wide.
The front of the box shows the whole model at the seaside, where Windmill Village can be seen to the right in the background. The Village Hut itself has a color scheme beaming with shades of brown and tan, signifying wood and straw. The palmtree and the yellow crab also add to the tropical feel of this set. The minifigures of Shanks and Makino are talking on the boarding dock while Luffy is seen holding the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit in the Village Hut. Shanks wears a white halfway-buttoned shirt, a cape, pants and his iconic straw hat. Makino wears a long skirt covered by a vest and has dynamic green hair. Luffy, being a child at the time of this scene, wears a white shirt that says “ANCHOR” and blue pants. The exterior of the hut is decorated with a crab and palm tree at the side of the hut, a surfboard on the right of the entrance and a collectable wanted poster of one of the pirates featured throughout the series on the wall. The boarding dock has a chain to hook the pirate boat with oars and a wooden box to store the Devil Fruit. The interior bar includes small details such as drinks, stools, a life-saver, a sign that reads “partys”, and a mop and bucket for custodian work.
The back of the box shows Makino running the bar, and recreates the scene of Shanks passing his straw hat down to Luffy on the dock, who appears to be in tears. The straw hat was passed down to Shanks from Gol D. Roger, the first pirate king, and passing it down to Luffy was the turning point in his life and the start of his journey throughout the series.
The set includes 299 pieces and is intended for builders ages 8 and up.
