'One Piece,' originally created by Japanese manga artist Eiichiro Oda, tells the story of a boy named Monkey D. Luffy who dreams of becoming the Pirate King and sets out with his Straw Hat Pirates crew to find the greatest treasure left by the Pirate King, the One Piece. The live-action series produced by Netflix and Tomorrow Studios entered Netflix's global top 10 in its first season, remaining there for eight weeks and gaining popularity. The film review platform Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 95% audience score, receiving positive reviews as season 2 approaches its release.

Through this collaboration, the LEGO Group, Netflix, and Tomorrow Studios will present LEGO sets that recreate key scenes and iconic elements from the Netflix series 'One Piece.' The products will include representative characters reborn as LEGO minifigures, along with various features that allow fans to explore the world of One Piece in new ways.
