Buggy One Piece Cards Guide: Every Printing and PSA 10

Buggy One Piece Cards Guide: Every Printing and PSA 10

Buggy One Piece cards run from an early R print through two Leader cards to a dedicated starter deck built around his own name — and the print most collectors go looking for is a comic-panel parallel.

Whether Buggy appears in OP-17 is a question that keeps coming up around that release.

Key Takeaway

Buggy has appeared on 17 confirmed card-list rows since the game launched, including two Leader printings and a dedicated -Blue Buggy- [ST-25] starter deck. His headline chase print is OP09-051, an R comic-panel parallel from -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09].

17 Confirmed Buggy Card-List Rows

Buggy carries 17 card-list rows as of August 12, 2026, spanning seven mainline booster sets, four starter decks, and two promo channels.

# Card # Rarity Set Trait / Notes
1 OP02-058 (+p1) R -Paramount War- [OP-02] Impel Down/Buggy Pirates
2 OP03-008 UC -Pillars of Strength- [OP-03] Buggy Pirates (p1 = SP CARD, reprinted in -Wings of Captain- [OP-06]; p2/r2 = PRB-02; p3 = Promotion Card Set 2026)

12 OP16-048 (+p1) SR -THE TIME OF BATTLE- [OP-16] Impel Down/Buggy Pirates
13 OP16-057 C -THE TIME OF BATTLE- [OP-16] Event card, “Captain Buggy’s Our Savior!!”
14 ST25-004 SR -Blue Buggy- [ST-25] The Four Emperors/Cross Guild — Buggy’s dedicated starter deck
15 ST03-011 / ST17-003 C ST-03 / ST-17 The Seven Warlords of the Sea/Buggy’s Delivery
16 ST30-011 (+p1) C STARTER DECK EX -Luffy & Ace- [ST-30] Impel Down/Buggy Pirates
17 P-084 / P-098 P Promo The Four Emperors/Cross Guild (Asia Special Prize 2024-11 / Theme Promotion Pack ver. The New Four Emperors)

Two things stand out across the 17 rows. First, Buggy’s card-game “Trait” line changes over time — early prints carry East Blue/Buggy Pirates or Impel Down/Buggy Pirates, while everything from -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09] onward carries The Four Emperors/Cross Guild. Second, -THE TIME OF BATTLE- [OP-16] is by far his deepest single-set showing: a Leader, an SR, a UC, and a Buggy-specific Event card all in one booster.

The Chase Print: OP09-051 Comic Parallel

Buggy R comic-panel parallel, OP09-051, -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09]
Buggy R comic-panel parallel, OP09-051, -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09]

Buggy’s flagship chase card is OP09-051, a R Blue Character card from -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09]. On the official card list it exists in eight forms under the same number: the standard print, parallels p1, p2, and p4, a true SP CARD variant (p3), two further SP parallels printed later in -The Azure Sea’s Seven- [OP-14] (p5, p6), and a reprint (r1) in the -Blue Buggy- [ST-25] starter deck. That spread of variants under one card number is exactly the kind of thing that causes mix-ups when people are trying to identify what they own.

The comic-panel print is the p2 variant — a comic-panel background parallel, officially rarity R. That’s a distinct card from the true SP CARD version of OP09-051 (p3), which uses a different WANTED-poster illustration and carries the actual “SP” rarity designation. The “R-SP” label is catalog shorthand — the card’s official rarity is R, and it’s the comic-panel parallel, not the SP CARD.

Identifying Your Copy

If the art shows a black-and-white manga panel behind Buggy, you have the p2 comic parallel. If the art is a full-color WANTED-poster illustration, that’s the separate SP CARD (p3), a different collectible with its own rarity line.

OP09-051’s effect, per the official card text: “[On Play] Place up to 1 of your opponent’s Characters at the bottom of the owner’s deck. Then, if you do not have 5 Characters with a cost of 5 or more, place this Character at the bottom of the owner’s deck.” Cost 10, Power 12000, Blue, Type: The Four Emperors/Cross Guild.

Our PSA 10 listing for the p2 comic parallel was priced at ¥147,322 (~$957) on October 24, 2026, and our PSA 10 listing for the OP09-042 Leader from the English 2nd Anniversary Set (p3) was priced at ¥23,457 (~$152) on October 24, 2026; the product pages show the current terms.

Buggy’s Leader Cards & the Blue Buggy Starter Deck

The official card database confirms two Buggy Leader numbers, plus a dedicated starter deck built entirely around him.

Buggy L, OP09-042, -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09]

Buggy L, OP09-042 (OP-09)

Buggy L, OP16-041, -THE TIME OF BATTLE- [OP-16]

Buggy L, OP16-041 (OP-16)

OP09-042, Blue, is his original Leader debut in -Emperors in the New World- [OP-09]. It was reprinted as a parallel (p1) in the same set, again (p2) as the Leader inside the dedicated -Blue Buggy- [ST-25] starter deck, and a third time (p3) in an English 2nd Anniversary Set. OP16-041, also Blue, is his second Leader number, headlining -THE TIME OF BATTLE- [OP-16] with an Impel Down/Buggy Pirates trait line rather than The Four Emperors/Cross Guild.

Buggy SR, ST25-004, -Blue Buggy- [ST-25]
Buggy SR, ST25-004 — Blue Buggy starter deck [ST-25]

The -Blue Buggy- [ST-25] starter deck ships with the OP09-042 Leader reprint at the helm and adds ST25-004, an SR Character card, as its own chase pull. Between the two Leader numbers and a starter deck built specifically around him, Buggy sits in a smaller group of characters who’ve headlined a dedicated deck rather than only appearing as a supporting Character card.

Other Confirmed Buggy Prints

Beyond the chase print and the Leader lineup, Buggy has been printed across most of the game’s mainline boosters and several starter decks. His earliest appearance is OP02-058, an R Character card from -Paramount War- [OP-02], with a further parallel (p1). -Pillars of Strength- [OP-03] added two more: OP03-008 (UC) and OP03-032 (C).

-THE TIME OF BATTLE- [OP-16] is Buggy’s deepest single-set showing outside his Leader debut: alongside the OP16-041 Leader, it carries OP16-031 (UC), OP16-048 (SR, with a p1 parallel), and OP16-057, a rarity-C Event card titled “Captain Buggy’s Our Savior!!”

Two prints connect Buggy back to the Roger Pirates rather than his own crew: OP12-012 (C, -Legacy of the Master- [OP-12]) and OP13-072 (R, -Carrying on His Will- [OP-13]) are both catalogued with the Trait Roger Pirates rather than Buggy Pirates or The Four Emperors/Cross Guild.

Rounding out the list: OP12-049 (UC, OP-12), OP15-012 (C, -Adventure on KAMI’s Island- [OP-15]), ST03-011 and ST17-003 (both C, Seven Warlords of the Sea/Buggy’s Delivery trait), ST30-011 (C, with a p1 parallel, STARTER DECK EX -Luffy & Ace- [ST-30]), and two promo numbers, P-084 and P-098, distributed through Asia Special Prize (November 2024) and a Theme Promotion Pack respectively.

Is Buggy in OP-17?

OP-17, -World’s Strongest Warriors- (JP: 世界最強の戦士), released on August 22, 2026 at ¥240 (tax included) per pack, six cards per pack.

As of August 12, 2026, 131 card types plus four additional variants were confirmed for the set — including 10 SP cards, 1 Treasure Rare, 6 Leaders, and 3 SEC cards — centered on the Rocks Pirates (Rocks D. Xebec, Edward Newgate, Kaidou, Charlotte Linlin, Shiki) and the Elbaf-arc Straw Hat crew (Luffy, Zoro, and others). Buggy had not appeared in any officially revealed OP-17 card: neither the official OP-17 product page nor the JP card list (then topping out at OP-16) showed a Buggy print for this set.
