The Moby Dick is the flagship of the Whitebeard Pirates, captained by none other than Edward Newgate, a towering man standing in at almost twenty-two tall! Newgate, who most of the world knows as Whitebeard, is noted to be the “Strongest Man in the World,” even as he enters his early seventies! The Whitebeard Pirates are a massive organization consisting of multiple pirate ships, the larger of which share a strong resemblance with the Moby Dick. The Moby Dick’s most notable appearance came during the Paramount War when Whitebeard’s Pirates took the Moby Dick and the rest of their fleet to Marineford in a daring assault of the Naval Headquarters. The Moby Dick also appears again during a flashback in the Wano Arc, proving that Whitebeard has had the Moby Dick for at least two decades before its introduction in the main story.
Included alongside the Moby Dick for accessories:
- Display Base
- Water Effect Part
Notable Attributes:
The Moby Dick and the rest of Bandai’s Grand Ship Collection make an excellent choice for modelers of any skill level to express their love for the series. This model ship is unlike any traditional model ship you’d find on the shelves of your local hobby shop, as the Moby Dick is a snap-build kit made for assembly without any tools required! Bandai designed each part to pop right off the runner without any nippers, and they included a thorough sheet of color-correcting stickers for a great display piece right out of the box. The lower hull of the Moby Dick easily separates from the rest of the ship, allowing builders to choose between displaying the ship in its entirety or just what’s above water level!
