The One Piece Memorial Collection is a Japanese set from Bandai's One Piece Card Game, released in 2024 as the hobby's fast-growing franchise continued to draw new players and collectors. Sets in this line are remembered for their alternate-art printings, which reimagine familiar characters and scenes in distinctive compositions that have made them among the most sought-after releases of the era. The Memorial Collection sits within that tradition, giving collectors a chance to own premium, visually striking versions of characters from Eiichiro Oda's long-running story. Card 48 features Laboon, the gentle whale from the Reverse Mountain arc whose loyalty to the Thousand Sunny crew and long wait for the Straw Hats has made him one of the series' most beloved non-human characters. This alternate art gives the character a fresh, expansive presentation that rewards close looking. Collectors seek it for both its emotional resonance with fans and its place as a standout within a celebrated set.
