One Piece Card Game collectors have been buzzing about SP “Wanted Poster” cards – special alternate-print cards styled after the iconic One Piece bounty posters. SP Wanted Poster cards are a type of special rare (SP) alternate art in the One Piece Card Game, introduced in early 2023 with the OP03 set. These cards feature characters’ wanted poster visuals with “WANTED – Dead or Alive” designs, making them instantly recognizable and highly sought after.

Beyond looking cool, Wanted Posters are typically very rare cards. In fact, in sets like OP09, collectors found roughly one Wanted Poster card per sealed case (12 booster boxes). This extreme rarity, combined with beloved characters and a unique artwork style, makes them grail cards for many collectors. They often feature major characters (e.g. Luffy, Shanks, Ace, etc.) or important villains in a style never seen on regular cards.

“Wanted Poster” showcase the bounty poster-style design with the “WANTED – Dead or Alive” banners. 

In this article, we’ll list all the Wanted Poster cards from sets OP03: Pillars of Strength, OP09: Emperors of the New World, and OP13: Carrying on His Will. We’ll highlight each card’s character, set, rarity/pull rate, value range, and any notable gameplay or collector info.

OP13 Carrying on His Will – Wanted Poster Cards

OP09 Emperors of the New World – Wanted Poster Cards

OP09, released in late 2024, brought back Wanted Posters in a big way by featuring the Four Emperors themselves. Each of these four SP cards is an alt-art of a character card in OP09, depicting the Yonko bounty posters. All four OP09 Wanted Posters form an exciting set symbolizing the One Piece world’s four Emperors post-Wano.

OP03 Pillars of Strength – Wanted Poster Cards

Released mid-2023, this was the first set to feature Wanted Poster special prints. OP03’s posters were alternate-art reprints of four powerful cards done in wanted poster style. They are all classified as Super Rare (SR) parallel cards within the set. Pull rates were extremely low (on the order of ~1 per case, though some cases could yield two) based on community reports.

Final Thoughts on Long-Term Value and Aesthetics

The SP "Wanted Poster" cards bring together the lore of One Piece and the high-end chase of TCGs in a brilliant way. They’re not just powerful or shiny cards, they tell a story (each one is literally a snapshot of the story’s most famous bounty posters) and elevate any collection with their distinct look. For long-term value, these cards check all the boxes: beloved characters, limited print runs, unique art, and historical significance in the card game (being among the first special prints introduced). It’s no surprise that many collectors hold onto them much like one would hold key comic book issues or first-edition Pokémon holos, they represent key moments and figures in One Piece in a format that’s inherently scarce.

From OP03’s first Wanted Posters of Luffy and company, to OP09’s Emperor lineup, to OP13’s emotional trio and Roger, each wave of these cards has been met with excitement. Secondary market prices have generally trended upward or held strong, especially for PSA/BGS graded copies in gem mint condition. 

Finally, for those interested in gameplay, it’s worth noting all Wanted Poster cards (aside from misprinted text issues) are tournament legal – they’re essentially alternate art versions. So you can absolutely flex a Wanted Poster card in your deck at a tournament. That said, given values like we’ve discussed, most players sleeve up cheaper regular prints or gold-stamped reprints, and keep their Wanted Posters safe.

In summary, SP Wanted Poster cards are among the most coveted One Piece TCG collectibles, offering long-term value backed by iconic art and extreme rarity. Whether you’re a One Piece fan looking to invest in a piece of the story, or a card collector chasing the next high-end prize, these bounty poster cards are a treasure worth seeking (or at least admiring from afar!). Just be ready – catching one might feel as challenging as capturing the pirates on the posters themselves!
