One Piece DX Figure

TV Anime 「One Piece」 DX Figure is a series of 18 cm tall figures released in 2006 by Banpresto, which could only be found in UFO Catcher games. Each released set is composed of 2 characters. Each figure is generally sold in specialized shop at ¥1200~1400.

Since then, Banpresto has released another related series TV Anime 「One Piece」 Kumitate Shiki DX. Kumitate Shiki (組立式) is a Japanese word meaning pre-made / pre-assembled, i.e. no painting and minor assembling required, but sometimes you can find it literally translated as Assembly Type (as 組立 / Kumitate can be translated as assembly and 式 / Shiki means type, style).

This page isn't exhaustive. A lot of Chopper plushies did also come out under the One Piece DX line.
