WM Blocks WM6189 Review

Hello everyone! LEGO minifigure enthusiasts are probably all waiting for the WM One Piece series to be announced, right? After they revealed the fourth wave of figures recently, I’ve been checking every day, waiting patiently. Finally, a complete set appeared the day before yesterday!
Today, I’m excited to share some real-life photos with you all!
Part 1 – Official Website Images
If we go by the numbering, this set is the third release out of the four released in one go. Judging by the fact that some characters from the other releases are also available, it seems WM’s production schedule is completely out of order… However, it doesn’t really matter as long as the cost performance is high enough.
Minifigure Nika Luffy WM2762
Although it’s not the first Nika Luffy, considering WM’s current ‘status’ in the community and its actual cost performance, it is undoubtedly the top choice version again!
The only character in this set with double-sided expressions, truly fitting for the protagonist.
Compared to other brands’ versions, this one lacks the iconic straw hat, so the special effect piece on the back is very secure.
There are two types of weapons, both featuring a transparent gradient effect.
The effect piece on the side of the foot is secured using the hole behind the leg. Additionally, there’s a visible expression peeking out from the base of the hair.
Minifigure Silvers Rayleigh WM2763
How accurate are the facial expressions on WM Blocks now? Just look at the Dark King Silvers Rayleigh, and you’ll know! Honestly, I never expected WM Blocks to evolve so remarkably in just two short years.
This is different from the traditional (?) coat accessory; it’s a sleeveless version with a hood. Combined with the accurate hairstyle and beard, yet another peak performance minifigure is born.
Minifigure Ace One Piece WM2764
Judging by the plain figure, body patterns, and special hat, Ace from WM Blocks is just performing at the usual level.
Even with the addition of flame arm and leg pieces, Ace is overshadowed due to the lack of accessories like a backpack.
But! WM Blocks also has the special ‘True Fire Fist’ hand piece! This move is like a miracle that brings it back to life!
It’s truly the ‘Fire Fist’!
Minifigure Yamato WM2765
It’s another popular character, so naturally, comparisons are inevitable.
The hair is a three-piece set, and the result is fantastic! The larger size of Ken is more faithful to the original work!
The Yamato minifigure comes with geta pieces, but since they can’t be attached to studs, characters with noticeably heavier backs, like Yamato, need to lean slightly forward to stand successfully.
This hair is truly unbeatable…
Minifigure Sabo WM2766
The Sabo’s coat isn’t an actual piece, which is a bit unusual for WM Blocks (or perhaps this unpredictability is typical of WM?
The steel pipe is perfectly replicated!
Minifigure Nefertari D Vivi WM2767
A design with no highlights, it doesn’t seem like something newly released by WM Blocks at all!
Even the accessories of Nefertari D Vivi are just the usual cape and chains, making me suspect that WM Blocks’ design team must really dislike Vivi.
The performance is so mediocre that I don’t even want to take a few more photos.
Minifigure Carrot WM2768
Compared to the half-hearted Vivi, Carrot is treated like a beloved daughter. However, the effect pieces she holds are obviously borrowed from Naruto.
Minifigure Sanji WM2469
The Noodle Mask version of Sanji doesn’t stand out much in terms of the figure itself.
However, once all the accessories are added, doesn’t this performance reach the pinnacle level for domestic minifigures?
The quality of this molded cape is simply outstanding!

After WM Blocks released their One Piece series, there’s really no need to look at or even purchase other brands… unless you’re looking to complete the character set or want specific accessories or effect pieces. Matching this level of quality while maintaining a high cost-performance ratio is undoubtedly a major challenge for most brands.
Although our friend CK believes this set of One Piece Minifigures is not yet perfect, they are more than enough to fascinate me. Especially when we put these Minifigures together, they constantly remind me of the exciting battle scenes in the One Piece anime. It’s truly thrilling!
