What happened to the P.O.P X B-style Nami Swimsuit Ver. ?

When a Poster Sparks Imagination: The Tease of Nami’s Swimsuit Figure

Imagine walking into a bustling Jump Festa hall, lights flashing and fans buzzing—and then, tucked in a corner, a single poster wraps its arms around you. That was the first taste collectors got of the upcoming Megahouse x B-Style Nami Swimsuit Ver. figure.
No prototype, no teaser video, just Nami’s confident silhouette in a sun-kissed pose, printed on glossy cardstock. In that moment, the mystery became irresistible, especially that the P.O.P logo is on the top right corner of the print!

The Perfect Storm: MegaHouse Joins Forces with FREEing’s B-Style

The sheer idea of two titans collaborating makes hearts race. MegaHouse, master of narrative-driven Portrait of Pirates sculpts, teamed up with FREEing’s B-Style, celebrated for its breathtaking 1/4 scale swimsuit figures. Picture Nami—One Piece’s beloved navigator—brought to life in 42 centimeters of PVC artistry, her hair sculpted to catch an ocean breeze, her stance exuding playful confidence. It’s a blend of storytelling and fan-service, where every curve of the sculpt hints at her fearless spirit and every detail—from the texture of the swimsuit to the subtle arch of her eyebrow—whispers “adventure.”... Stop dreaming guys! There is only the silhouette of the figure! BUT there is the P.O.P Logo and the 20th anniversary of P.O.P logo too! This is not a dream, I'm saying again to insist!
Will it be the Elbaf giant of the P.O.P figures? The grail of the BB waifus? Nami swaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!

December 2025: The Date Etched in Collector Calendars

According to industry whispers and the official Shonen Jump calendar, this collaboration sails into stores in December 2025, carrying a price tag of ¥36,000. What’s intriguing is the naming choice—dropping any “P.O.P” or “Portrait of Pirates” label and showcasing only “B-Style One Piece Nami Swimsuit Ver.” It’s a bold move, as if to say, “This isn’t just another P.O.P figure—it’s a B-Style showpiece.” For collectors, that decision signals FREEing’s confidence in the brand’s standalone appeal and the abandon of the P.O.P 42cm dream! (Which is maybe a good thing after all!)

Still A Mirage? Tempering Hype with Reality

And yet, after the poster’s debut, silence. No photo updates, no prototype reveals, and no preorder alerts have surfaced. For some, the radio silence feels like the calm before a storm; for others, it smacks of a project adrift. So here we stand, bikini-clad Nami frozen in print, and our shelves waiting. Is this dream figure racing toward our collections, or has it quietly been swept away by shifting tides?
