One Piece - Model Kit - Ship Spade Pirates
Description
Set sail and relive the origins of one of the world’s most popular pirates thanks to the playful plastic engineering of the Grand Ship Collection range developed by Bandai Spirits. The Spade Pirates’ ship immediately stands out thanks to its aggressive lines and unique figurehead depicting a horse’s skull adorned with stylised bright orange and yellow flames – a direct nod to the future power of Ace’s Mera Mera no Mi Devil Fruit. The injection-moulded plastic hull combines shades of wood-brown and military grey, capturing the full allure of a fast and manoeuvrable buccaneer ship designed to cut through the sea at high speed. Gloomy black sails and a battery of portholes: The visual impact of this model lies in its dark, high-contrast aesthetic. The kit includes: A huge, curved black mainsail pre-printed with the crew’s Jolly Roger (a flaming skull bearing the ace of spades). A white topsail bearing the crisply printed inscription ‘SPADE’. Finely sculpted deck details including portholes, openwork railings and side cannon recesses. A dual display option and translucent marine effects: True to the collection’s iconic versatility, the box features a clever dual-base system. When assembling the model, you can choose to display the ship at rest on a standard blue oval base, or to remove the lower section of the hull (Waterline configuration) to slot it into two superb clear blue plastic wave effect pieces. This feature allows you to simulate dynamic navigation on the open sea right on your display shelves.
