This kit is the Going Merry -A Netflix Series: ONE PIECE- released as part of the ONE PIECE Grand Ship Collection. It came out to commemorate the live-action ONE PIECE series released on Netflix. Even though the silhouette is similar to the original Going Merry, the size and details are completely different, so it's a 100% newly sculpted kit.
Compared to the original Going Merry, the height is noticeably lower — the sail is smaller, and the flag at the top has been removed. The ram's head design at the front has also changed from a cartoonish style to a more realistic look. Other than that, the overall parts layout is the same as the existing Grand Ship Collection kits, and it still has that smooth assembly feel, though it does require a fair amount of sticker work.
It's pretty significant that the Netflix version of the Going Merry has gotten the plastic model treatment. Setting aside any opinions on the live-action series itself, the kit is clean and well-made — it seems like a fun kit that's easy enough to recommend even to first-time modelers. :-)
