One Piece Super Deformed Figures

Figure Collection, sometimes shortened to FC, is a series of figures produced by Bandai. Each part of the series is focused on a particular arc of One Piece, reproducing some of the mugiwara and characters introduced during the arc. The figures are super deformed rendition of characters, with a size of about 5 cm tall. Although Bandai releases other mini-figure sets, FC is the longuest series of them all, with an average release every 6 months. At the time FC1 came out, a lot of shops listed this set as World 4. The same thing happened to FC2, listed as World 5. Indeed, the World series did come up before and shared the same characteristics as the current FC series. But after FC3 was released, it became obvious that Bandai intended FC to be a different series than from the original World one, despite Bandai left numbering out after FC3 (the only exception is FC8). Those 2 series are nevertheless listed here for completeness. From FC4 and onwards, each set comes with a unique name. As this series is only intended for Japanese domestic market, Bandai didn't give out official English names. Thus, this article gives a direct translation from Japanese. Shops may call them under different but close enough references.
