I really need an imperial flagship. I'm assuming POTC isn't coming back but at the same time a bunch of pirates parts got retired on PAB including imperial uniforms...worrying. This points to licensed sets and there have been 0 rumours of POTC. The goonies ship and BDP are the only things I can think of right now

Yeah I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be one piece sets and I’m not thrilled about that

What??? Where have you heard this? I really hope not, I would only buy for hull pieces at that point

I don't see how "Pirate fans will be eating well" means new theme in the first place how did it get to One Piece

Clay said earlier this year that one piece sets were being considered.

 The same leak said f1 collectible minifigures, another series of marvel collectible figs (spider verse) and more fortnight sets. 
 
considering the others have all come true, I’d say the one piece (Netflix not anime series) ones are what he’s talking about.

I definitely didn't say that, I would never act like I know what Lego is considering

Netflix One Piece has now been reported by Kramer.

Don't think that's all though...

Will at least be interesting to see those sets:steve:

I'm not that excited for this. Maybe there will be some boat parts that could be useful. Any sails will probably be printed according to the series so that you can't use it for other things though.

The one thing I'm excited for is the opportunity to get a somewhat accurate tar hat mould from the main characters straw hat (even though it's not flat on top...).

I think it’s a good idea for a run of sets. I don’t think it will quite scratch the classic pirates itch for me, however these sets are likely to be colorful and creative. Depending on how they turn out I might be interested. When I first heard of the DnD castle set I was uninterested but the final design and then the CMF series made that turn out very cool as a more fantasy castle spinoff thing. This could be similar where they won’t necessarily go with traditional pirate sets but could be a neat accompaniment.

 

As others have said maybe the parts that come from these sets could be quite useful in MOCs

What is One Piece? I've never heard of this, and now it's going to be a Lego theme?

It's a Japanese manga series, a 1999 anime series with over 1,100 episodes (and counting!) and a bunch of films, plus a newer 2023 live action Netflix show. The only reason I know any of this is because:

A) I looked it up on Wikipedia.

B)  I know some people who are obsessed with the older show and are really excited for it, but I'm not one of those people who cares one iota about this theme... if it's based off the original anime, it would shock me as it's far too adult for LEGO from what I've been told / been shown by my friend.

Same here. I just watched the trailer on YT and some photos.

Count me as only interested if there are good usable pirate & ship parts.

Exactly what I am thinking. Unfortunately the main protagonists do not look like (historically accurate) pirates.

At least the price per piece is not as high as in other licensed themes. I wonder what the 3402pcs set will be? A big ship? But Black Pearl and another ship on shelves at the same time - can it be? I don't even know how many parts a big ship would have nowadays.

Hmm the lack of engagement in this thread really speaks volumes about the lack of excitement of this from Lego Pirates fans.

In fairness apart from set numbers and prices and a handful of leaked parts, there's not much to discuss. I expect when set pictures actually show up it'll be easier for Pirates fans to evaluate how relevant the theme is or isn't to their particular interests.

I feel this theme is not made for Classic Pirates fans but for anime fans and One Piece fans specifically. For example, I didn't even think the thread for this theme would be here because for me One Piece is more like an action and adventure story with fantasy than just a story of pirates. Because yeah, there are pirates in the story but also cyborgs, zombies, demons and much more. Anyways, I believe the ships that this theme can deliver will be really appreciated by everyone. 
Now, if I had to make guesses about these sets we'll be getting this summer, I would say:

75636 I think this could be two options: a small set based on Luffy vs Buggy or a small set based on Luffy vs Kuro. In option one, the set would be a small circus; in option two, a small room from Kaya's mansion.

75637 This set can depict Shanks scene where he saves Luffy from the Lord of the Coast, so the main build would be the Lord of the Coast (its like a really big eel) and a small boat with kid Luffy and Shanks.

75638 This has to be Arlong Park, so for minifigures I would go with Luffy, Nami and Arlong. 

75639 I feel this is the Going Merry that is the ship of the protagonists so naturally would include Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp and Sanji. Given is a small ship in comparison with others, I feel this is likely.

75640: If is based on the live action, the most obvious choice would be the Baratie because the staff of the live action were really happy with it and making it a big set would look incredible. Minifigures I would say: Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Zeff, Arlong and Mihawk, maybe Don Krieg too though he didn't appear much in the live action but he was the main villain of this scene in the anime.

Keep in mind that these five sets are not necessarily all based on the first season since the second season will probably be out by August. Or they are all based on the first season and a second batch of sets is planned for January 2026 this time based on the second season. Time will tell.

1. The show is not that popular worldwide, so the name means nothing to some people
2. The show has pirate themes, but they don't necessarily align with the style of Lego-style pirates
3. The minifigures for the sets will most likely use flesh-coloured tones, and I dare say most Lego Pirate fans (myself included) are not particularly excited about this
