Shine Bright Like a Chopper
Megahouse continues its golden streak of Chopperman figures with Chopperman Ver. Gold, a Limited Edition released exclusively during the One Piece Memorial Log - Conclusion of the Supernova Chapter event held in Hirakata Park, Japan. If you're counting, yes—Chopperman is back (again), and yes—he's dipped in gold this time. But even among the sea of variations, this one glitters with a bit more appeal.
Golden Glory Done Right
This figure doesn’t just scream “limited” in concept—it looks the part. The vibrant golden finish covers Chopper’s entire hero outfit, from the oversized “C” badge on his chest to the bold metallic shine of his helmet and cape. Unlike flat matte paints or dull metallics, this version gleams under the light, elevating Chopper’s usual cuteness into something almost majestic. For a character built on sugar-sweet adorableness, this version adds a surprisingly regal twist.
That Signature Pose, Polished to Perfection
The dynamic superhero pose—arms stretched out, full of heroic energy—is familiar to longtime POP collectors, but the golden repaint enhances every line and crease. The reflective texture works especially well on the sculpted wrinkles in his cape and helmet, making them pop visually with depth and style. His facial expression is the same iconic mix of determination and naivety, now shimmering with collector-worthy flair.
Event-Only Treasure
Chopperman Ver. Gold wasn’t available in stores or online retailers—it was strictly exclusive to the One Piece Memorial Log event from March to July 2012. That alone gives it grail-status among collectors. Whether you're a die-hard Chopperman fan or someone who once rolled their eyes at yet another version of him, this gold release is undeniably tempting. It’s flashier, rarer, and surprisingly well-executed.
Final Thoughts
Megahouse may have played the Chopperman card more times than some fans would like, but with Chopperman Ver. Gold, they’ve struck a balance between novelty and class. This isn’t just another recolor—it’s a bold, sparkling tribute that stands out proudly among the rest. Whether you're in it for the completionist joy or just love shiny things, this one is worth its weight in gold.
