Why OP04 Kingdoms of Intrigue Cards Hold Value
OP04 Kingdoms of Intrigue is built around the Dressrosa arc — the sprawling political thriller in which Doflamingo's hidden kingdom is exposed, Sabo reappears after years of absence, and Luffy's alliance with the Corrida Colosseum fighters takes shape. The arc is significant not only for its narrative density but for the characters it reintroduced to the spotlight.
- Sabo — Ace's sworn brother and presumed-dead Revolutionary Army commander, whose return is one of One Piece's most emotionally charged reveals. He is the emotional centrepiece of OP04 and drives the highest sustained non-promo demand in the set.
- Donquixote Doflamingo — arguably the most popular villain of the post-timeskip era, whose complex relationship with power, family, and cruelty made him one of the most discussed antagonists in the series
- Ms. All Sunday (Nico Robin) — long-time fan favourite whose backstory and loyalty arc remain a touchstone for One Piece fans globally
- Capone Gang Bege — a minor character elevated to promo status by his role in Whole Cake Island planning; his Finalist promo is among the rarest cards in the early OP set era
OP04 is also notable for introducing Pre-Release promos with strong collector premiums — the Donquixote Family Pre-Release card at $221 raw punches well above its apparent weight in graded condition.

Graded Price Breakdown — Full Condition Data
OP04 has a wide spread of graded premiums — from the extreme Bege Finalist ceiling to surprisingly strong multiples on the Pre-Release and Alt Art cards. All prices in SGD.
| Card | Raw | PSA 10 | CGC 10 | BGS 10 | SGC 10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capone Gang Bege [Finalist] OP04-100 | $2,421 | $3,060 | $2,448 | $5,433 | $1,836 |
| Sabo [Alternate Art Manga] OP04-083 | $925 | $1,837 | $1,292 | $1,999 | $877 |
| Sabo [Alternate Art Manga PRB01] OP04-083 | $816 | $1,418 | $1,134 | $1,941 | $851 |
| Ms. All Sunday [SP] OP04-064 | $429 | $592 | $408 | $638 | $355 |
| Donquixote Rosinante [SP Foil] OP04-119 | $236 | $355 | $284 | $340 | $214 |
| Donquixote Family [Pre-Release] OP04-036 | $221 | $561 | $340 | $717 | $336 |
| Nefeltari Vivi [Alternate Art] OP04-001 | $150 | $337 | $107 | $490 | $102 |
Key graded observations across OP04:
- Capone Gang Bege [Finalist] has the highest BGS 10 in the set at SGD $5,433 — a 2.2x raw multiple. Only 2 transactions make the raw price highly uncertain, but graded demand for near-unique finalist promos is well-established from other OP sets.
- Donquixote Family [Pre-Release] punches far above its $221 raw price — BGS 10 at $717 is a 3.2x multiple. Pre-release promos from early OP sets are increasingly recognized as scarce collectibles with underappreciated graded ceilings.
- Nefeltari Vivi [Alternate Art] shows a 3.3x BGS 10 multiple from a $150 raw price — one of the strongest graded-to-raw ratios in the set from a card with 399 transactions and reliable pricing.
- CGC 10 lags significantly on Vivi Alt Art ($107 vs PSA 10 $337 and BGS 10 $490) — an unusual divergence suggesting CGC population is large or the grading criteria differ. If grading this card, PSA or BGS is clearly preferred.
- Sabo Manga Alt at 2x PSA 10 premium with 227 transactions remains the reliable liquid play — strong pricing confidence and achievable exits at every condition tier.
Japanese vs English Prices — OP04
The Japanese Kingdoms of Intrigue set launched in October 2023, five months before the English release. OP04 is the first set where the JP vs EN gap narrows meaningfully on several cards — Sabo, Kaido SP, and Vivi Alt Art all have active JP markets with EN premiums under 130%, making JP alternatives genuinely viable for budget collectors.
Note: The three Sabo variants (Manga Alt, Manga PRB01, Sealed Battle) all share card number OP04-083. The JP $436 price corresponds to the JP Manga Alt; the PRB01 and Sealed Battle are distinct products and are excluded from the table to avoid misleading comparisons.
| Card | EN Raw (SGD) | JP Raw (SGD) | EN Premium | JP Volume |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capone Gang Bege [Finalist] OP04-100 | $2,421 | $7 | +34486% | 13 |
| Sabo [Alternate Art Manga] OP04-083 | $925 | $436 | +112% | 170 |
| Ms. All Sunday [SP] OP04-064 | $429 | $106 | +305% | 44 |
| Donquixote Rosinante [SP Foil] OP04-119 | $236 | $49 | +382% | 29 |
| Donquixote Family [Pre-Release] OP04-036 | $221 | $2 | +10950% | 11 |
| Kaido [SP] OP04-044 | $204 | $89 | +129% | 167 |
| Nefeltari Vivi [Alternate Art] OP04-001 | $150 | $68 | +121% | 90 |
| Sugar [SP] OP04-024 | $97 | $54 | +80% | 17 |
Key observations:
- Sabo [Manga Alt] EN $925 vs JP $436 (+112%) is OP04's best JP value proposition — 170 JP transactions confirm a liquid JP market. At roughly half the EN price, the JP version carries the same emotional resonance and manga artwork with meaningful savings.
- Kaido [SP] and Vivi [Alt Art] both have active JP markets (167 and 90 JP transactions respectively) with EN premiums of 121–129%. Both are accessible entry points where JP versions represent genuine alternatives rather than marginal savings.
- Capone Bege [Finalist] JP at $7 vs EN $2,421 reflects that finalist promos are tournament-specific with virtually no equivalent JP collector demand — the EN version's value is entirely driven by EN circuit scarcity.
Capone Gang Bege Finalist — The OP04 Standout
The Capone Gang Bege [Finalist] OP04-100 at SGD $2,421 raw is OP04's dominant value card — the only card in the set that competes with OP01 and OP02 championship promo pricing. A Finalist promo is awarded to the runner-up at major One Piece TCG championship events — scarcer than a top-8 championship promo, and just below the winner promo in rarity.
The BGS 10 at SGD $5,433 is a 2.2x raw multiplier and the highest graded ceiling in OP04 by a wide margin. Only 2 recorded raw transactions mean the $2,421 raw price should be treated as directional — any new raw sale could reprice the market significantly in either direction.
Bege as a character benefits from his expanded role in the Whole Cake Island arc, where his detailed planning and unlikely alliance with the Straw Hats gave him a devoted following. For a character who is neither a Yonko nor a major arc villain, the Finalist promo's pricing reflects the scarcity premium almost exclusively.
Sabo Manga Alt — Three Versions at Three Price Points
OP04 has three distinct Sabo versions all sharing the OP04-083 card number, representing different product lines at meaningfully different price points:
Sabo [Alternate Art Manga] OP04-083 — SGD $925 raw / $1,999 BGS 10
The standard Manga Alt is OP04's liquid anchor. With 227 recorded transactions, pricing is reliable and exits are achievable at every tier. PSA 10 at $1,837 and BGS 10 at $1,999 are both clean 2x raw multiples — well within normal graded premium ranges for a deeply traded card. Sabo's status as Ace's successor and the emotional weight of his Dressrosa return gives this card collector demand that extends well beyond competitive players.
Sabo [Alternate Art Manga PRB01] OP04-083 — SGD $816 raw / $1,941 BGS 10
The PRB01 foil version trades at a $109 raw discount to the standard Manga Alt but achieves nearly the same BGS 10 at $1,941 — only $58 less than the standard version. With 37 transactions, market depth is thinner but the pricing signal is meaningful. The foil treatment attracts gem-condition premiums that narrow the gap significantly from raw prices, similar to the Sogeking PRB01 pattern seen in OP03.
Sabo [Sealed Battle] OP04-083 — SGD $132 raw / $346 BGS 10
The Sealed Battle version is a different product entirely — a much more accessible Sabo collectible at $132 raw with 43 transactions. Its BGS 10 at $346 represents a 2.6x raw multiple — actually a stronger graded multiple than the Manga Alt versions. Collectors who want a graded Sabo at an entry price may find better value here than trying to grade the higher-raw Manga Alt variants.
Buying Tips for OP04 Cards
Three Sabo Versions — Know Which One You're Buying
All three Sabo versions share OP04-083 but represent distinct products: the standard Manga Alt ($925), the PRB01 foil ($816), and the Sealed Battle ($132). The PRB01's BGS 10 at $1,941 is within $58 of the standard Manga Alt's $1,999 — if gem-condition is your target, the PRB01 may offer better graded value relative to its lower raw cost. Verify which version you are buying before transacting.
Pre-Release Promos Are Underappreciated
The Donquixote Family [Pre-Release] at $221 raw with a BGS 10 of $717 (3.2x) is one of the more overlooked graded plays in OP04. Pre-release promos are distributed only at official pre-release events — not at retail — meaning supply is geographically constrained. With 67 transactions, pricing is relatively established for what is an event-exclusive card.
Vivi Alt Art: BGS or PSA, Skip CGC
Nefeltari Vivi [Alternate Art] has an unusual grader gap — CGC 10 at $107 is a fraction of PSA 10 at $337 and BGS 10 at $490. If you are grading this card, PSA or BGS is clearly the correct choice. The CGC result may reflect a large population or stricter grading on this card's common surface issues.
Bege Finalist: Treat Raw Price as Estimate
With only 2 raw transactions, the Bege Finalist's $2,421 raw price is not a reliable market floor. A single motivated seller or buyer can reprice this card substantially. If you are targeting this card, prioritise graded copies with verified sales data over raw price comparisons — the BGS 10 at $5,433 has a cleaner comparable baseline from the graded market.
