Chopper's Summer Treat: WM Ver. - P.O.P Sailing Again
If summer had a mascot in the One Piece world, it would be this juicy little guy. The Tony Tony Chopper WM Ver.—that’s right, “WM” for watermelon—joins the Sailing Again lineup as a Mugiwara Store exclusive, released on August 21, 2015. This 100mm-tall figure brings the sunshine straight to your shelf with a ridiculously adorable watermelon-themed outfit. It’s fruity, it’s fun, and it’s everything you didn’t know you needed in a Chopper variant.
Design and Color Palette: Watermelon Wonderland
Decked out in green and black stripes just like a watermelon rind, Chopper’s outfit is as refreshing as it sounds. His signature helmet? Reimagined to look like a watermelon half—green and stripy on the outside, juicy pink on the inside. The bold color combo is bright, punchy, and playful, perfectly capturing those laid-back summer vibes.
Sweet Sculpting and Details
For such a tiny figure, there’s a surprising amount of texture packed in. The ridges on the helmet, the subtle folds of the outfit, even the crisp linework between the black stripes—everything is clean and well-executed. The paint job is tight, with no bleeding or lazy shading, giving it that top-shelf MegaHouse polish.
Pose and Personality: Chopper in Full Cheer Mode
Chopper’s pose is all bounce and joy—arms wide, mouth open, eyes sparkling. It’s pure sunshine in figure form. The stance might be a repeat of other Sailing Again versions, but the color scheme transforms the whole vibe. It’s a simple but effective way to make the sculpt feel fresh and full of energy.
Final Thoughts: Summer in Figure Form
Chopper WM Ver. is a vibrant seasonal twist on a fan-favorite sculpt, and it’s absolutely bursting with charm. It doesn’t bring new accessories or alternate faces, but what it *does* bring is a playful, exclusive design that feels tailor-made for collectors who love the unexpected. Whether you’re a Chopper superfan or just a sucker for themed variants, this one’s a delicious pick.
