Youtooz unveils figurines for one of Netflix's most-watched series
While the series has barely landed on streaming platform Netflix, One Piece is already at the heart of all debates: discrepancies with the manga, actors' performances, upcoming season 2, ... But a surprise awaits fans already won over by the series: Youtooz figurines.
One Piece, created by Eiichiro Oda, follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy, a young pirate in a straw hat who dreams of becoming King of the Pirates. To do so, he searches for the ultimate treasure known as "One Piece". On his journey, Luffy recruits a motley crew of characters, each with their own skills and motivations, and together they sail the seas of the Grand Line, facing powerful enemies and uncovering deep secrets.
The announcement of the live-action series raised concerns about Netflix's ability to capture the complex essence and fantastical universe of "One Piece". Fans are paying close attention to how iconic characters such as Luffy, Zoro, Nami and Usopp will be portrayed, as well as the quality of the special effects needed to do justice to the supernatural powers of the Fruit of the Demon.
Building on the success of the Netflix series (already over 20 million views on the various episodes!), Youtooz has proudly announced a partnership with Netflix to produce figurines (as well as a plush toy) featuring the characters.
The One Piece YOUTOOZ set features the main characters with Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp and Sanji. A snail transponder plush toy is also available.As with the usual figurines, Youtooz produces faithful reproductions of the various characters, with their attitudes, outfits and accessories. In the blink of an eye, you'll recognize your favorite heroes.
A final note: Youtooz has officially launched pre-orders on the One Piece collection, and the figurines will ship by 11/15. Given the success of the franchise, we can expect to see a sell-out pretty quickly unfortunately...
With the announcement of a second season, we can expect to discover new Youtooz collectibles from the series in the months to come!
