I know this figure will piss some people off, but I'm all for Gender Bender Figures, their cute and a nice look at a What If Alternate universe.

It gives a more defined vision to the descriptions from Fanfics...muh Stories.

It looks a lot like Robin to me, and Robin is best One Piece girl, so I'm okay with that. Not so much a fan of that Luffy prototype though.

I guess this is an indication that the female figures sold VERY well.

I'm curious to know if there going to make a gender bender Sanji or Zoro maybe even Usopp next the possibilities are endless, also a perverted female Sanji would be hilarious. Laughing

It's not a proper gender-bender line if it doesn't go the other way, too.

I bet Guy!Nami and Guy!Robin would be smokin'.

Since it's Megahouse, I'd keep my eye on CR's store, as they often get their exclusives.

Tbh, Oda's proportions are a bit unrealistic for my tastes, but I can see why they would be appealing. I do like the open coat though. I'm certainly not against gender swapped figures, as the Ginko (gender swapped Gin not protag from Mushishi) figure I ordered attests to. Honestly, she was waifu of the season for me when she made her appearance in Gintama in the Dekoboko arc. Also I second Robin best One Piece girl, though I do like Nami too.

As to seeing gender swapped figures of female characters, it's possible but the figure industry is still fairly straight male fan oriented, so I wouldn't get my hopes up too much. They are getting better, what with GSC announcing their male line, Orange Rouge, relatively recently, though other big figure companies have had male lines for a while.

I already preordered the Ginko Sakata figure so at this rate I'll hopefully have my own little collection of genderbend figures within the next year or so.

Trafalgar Law looks more formidable with her heart-shaped tattoo.

So when Laws heart is ripped out or arm ripped off, what about gendered swapped then? Brutal. This is a silly fetish. Nearly as silly as the tashigi swap in the show.

Though technically possible with the help of a certain revolutionary.
