Here’s the full schedule of Premium Bandai One Piece x NBA Master Stars figures of characters so far. At time of writing, these aren’t showing up at the US version of the site yet.

• August 2026: Six figures of Luffy in Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies, and New York Knicks uniforms will appear.
• September 2026: Luffy NBA House version figure will launch.

• January 2027: Golden State Warriors Trafalgar Law and Milwaukee Bucks Yamato figures will ship.  

With this list and schedule, there is still one character unaccounted for so far. That’s Portgas D. Ace. He’s the New York Knicks representative. As the February 2027 Banpresto schedule isn’t really set yet as of time of writing, it is possible he will appear after Law and Yamato.
