Megahouse will release a Rubik’s Cube based off One Piece. It’ll come out in late March 2025 and cost 5500 JPY ($36.25). [Thanks, Hobby Watch!]
The Rubik’s Cube will come in a case that resembles the Gomu Gomu no Mi. So you’ll be able to take it with you everywhere. You can also use the case itself for other objects. There’s even a loop at the side of it for you to fit in a carabinas, which would make it easy to take with you when you’re going outside.
As for the cube itself, it depicts how Luffy looks in his Gear 1 to Gear 5 forms. The whole set will also come with a stand, so once you finish the puzzle, you can put it on display in your home. When it comes out, you’ll be able to purchase it from stores like Premium Bandai, Mugiwara Store, and Jump Characters Store.
This isn’t the first time this year that Megahouse released a Rubik’s Cube that’s a collaboration with another company or intellectual property. In May 2024, it released a Hello Kitty Rubik’s Cube to recommend the 50th anniversary of both Hello Kitty and the Rubik’s Cube toy. Technically speaking, you can solve it by placing all of the different Hello Kitty logos and designs in chronological order. But unlike the One Piece one, the Hello Kitty cube didn’t create a coherent picture. So even if you didn’t solve it, it would still look alright.
You can watch One Piece on streaming services like Crunchyroll, and the manga is available in English via Viz Media.
