Relive the unforgettable early adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates by building their beloved first ship with the Bandai Spirits One Piece – Going Merry Model Kit, an impressive large-format plastic model measuring approximately 30cm long when assembled. From the adventures of the East Blue to Skypiea, the Going Merry became much more than transportation for Luffy and his crew—it became their floating home and one of the most emotionally significant ships in One Piece. Bandai recreates the famous vessel with a wealth of recognisable details, including its iconic sheep's-head figurehead, large Straw Hat Jolly Roger sail, wood-effect hull, white railings, detailed upper deck and Nami's mandarin trees. Unlike the smaller Grand Ship Collection models, this larger kit offers a more substantial and immersive build. It also includes six miniature Straw Hat crew figures—Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji and Chopper—allowing collectors to populate the finished ship and create a more complete One Piece display. Bandai's snap-fit construction means glue is not required for standard assembly, while the coloured plastic components and supplied decorative markings allow the ship to look impressive even without painting. Once complete, the Going Merry can be presented on its dedicated dark wood-effect display stand with gold-coloured nameplate, creating a fantastic centrepiece for any One Piece collection. 🔧 Product Details Specification Details Product Going Merry Model Kit Manufacturer Bandai Spirits Franchise One Piece Ship Going Merry Product Type Collectible Plastic Model Kit / Plamo Format Large Ship Model Scale Non-Scale Finished Length Approx. 28–30cm Finished Height Approx. 25cm Assembly Snap-Fit Glue Required No Painting Required Optional Approx.

Gifted by Kaya and built by Merry, the caravel becomes the crew's first true pirate ship and carries them through countless adventures. Bandai's larger-format model gives the Merry considerably more presence than a compact ship collectible, making it ideal for fans who want the vessel to become a centrepiece of their One Piece display. 🐏 Iconic Sheep's-Head Figurehead At the bow sits perhaps the Going Merry's most recognisable feature: its cheerful sheep's-head figurehead. It's also closely associated with Monkey D. Luffy, who regularly claims the bow as one of his favourite places aboard the ship. Combined with the distinctive hull and sail arrangement, the figurehead makes the Going Merry instantly recognisable even from across a display shelf. 🌳 Nami's Mandarin Trees Bandai hasn't forgotten the smaller details that helped make the Going Merry feel like the Straw Hats' home. The aft section includes the distinctive mandarin trees associated with Nami, adding another story-driven element to the model rather than focusing exclusively on the ship's exterior structure. The detailed upper deck, grass elements and additional fittings further enhance the personality of the completed vessel. ⛵ Detailed Ship Features The larger format allows the kit to incorporate numerous details throughout the Going Merry. Among the model's features are: Large rigid mainsail Straw Hat Pirates Jolly Roger Wood-effect hull detailing White railings Detailed upper deck Mandarin trees Removable hold hatches Side cannon details Anchor and chain Ship rigging Decorative stickers and markings Together, these elements create a much richer building experience than a simple pre-assembled ship collectible. 👒 Six Straw Hat Crew Figures Included The Going Merry wouldn't feel complete without her crew. Bandai includes miniature figures representing six members of the Straw Hat Pirates: Monkey D. Luffy Roronoa Zoro Nami Usopp Sanji Tony Tony Chopper Position the characters around the ship to create a more lively display and provide an immediate sense of scale. The miniatures are supplied unpainted, so hobbyists can add character details themselves for an even more impressive finished presentation. 🔧 Bandai Snap-Fit Assembly Despite its larger size and increased detail, the Going Merry uses Bandai's accessible snap-fit model engineering. Components are designed to press together securely, meaning model glue is not required for the standard assembly. With approximately 140–160 pieces and an estimated build time of around 3–5 hours, this model provides a more immersive project while remaining approachable for fans who may not have extensive scale-modelling experience. 🎨 Build Straight from the Box or Customise The main ship components are supplied in coloured plastic, so painting is optional rather than essential. Builders can assemble the Going Merry, apply the supplied decorative markings and achieve a colourful finished model straight from the box. For hobbyists wanting a more advanced result, the kit also provides an excellent foundation for: Detail painting Panel lining Wood effects Shading Weathering Painted crew figures This gives the kit appeal to both casual One Piece fans and more experienced model builders. 🏆 Premium Display Stand Included Once you've finished the build, the Going Merry deserves more than an ordinary shelf placement. The kit includes a dedicated dark wood-effect display stand with a gold-coloured nameplate, giving the completed ship a more traditional collector-model presentation. The base also provides additional stability while helping the approximately 30cm vessel stand out as a centrepiece. 📏 Impressive 30cm Display Size At approximately 28–30cm long and around 25cm high, this is a substantially sized One Piece ship model. Its dimensions make it particularly suitable as the focal point of: One Piece display cabinets Manga bookshelves Straw Hat Pirates collections Anime rooms Model kit collections Dedicated Luffy displays It offers considerably more visual presence than Bandai's compact Grand Ship Collection vessels. 🛠️ Recommended Building Equipment Although glue and painting aren't required for the standard build, a good pair of model-making nippers is recommended. Cleanly cutting the components from their sprues will help achieve a neater final result and reduce visible marks on the assembled model. More experienced builders can additionally use hobby knives, sanding tools and paints if they want to take the finished model further. 📦 Box Contents Going Merry multi-part plastic model kit Colour-injected hull and deck components Rigid plastic sails Rigging components Monkey D.
