onepiece@be.smile is a series of articulated figures, 6-7 cm tall. Their design style is super deformed , i.e. with a head to body ratio of 1/3, and they're produced by Bandai. The specific points that pull this series apart from the others are that all characters are smiling quite happily and can have 2 poses: standing or sitting.
The series name is following a pattern that would let people think it's an email address out of context. It's always brought together with the following subtitle: The characters are always with a "smile.".
