Dragon Ball is a Japanese media franchise created by Akira Toriyama. His manga was serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1984 to 1995 and follows Son Goku from childhood through adulthood as he trains in martial arts and battles villains who, like him, seek the Dragon Balls that summon a wish-granting dragon. Toei Animation adapted it as the Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z anime, followed by Dragon Ball GT, Dragon Ball Super and Dragon Ball Daima.

How to choose
Prize figures (Banpresto, Ichibansho) are pre-painted, fixed-pose and the most affordable way into a good sculpt. S.H.Figuarts are articulated for posing. FiguartsZero and Tsume Art pieces are display statues, and Lookup figures are small seated figures for desks and shelves. Figure-rise kits are for building yourself. Product titles name the saga or form. Availability changes as makers reissue and retire items, so check each product page for the current status.

Are these Dragon Ball figures legit, and how do I spot a bootleg?
Yes. P-Rex Hobby sells 100% authentic products. On Tamashii Nations figures such as S.H.Figuarts, look for the Tamashii Nations Quality seal, which reveals a hidden design when light hits it at an angle; 2018–2023 releases use a hologram sticker. Tamashii Nations also lists a missing copyright notice and a price far below usual as bootleg signs.

US orders arrive in 2–8 business days after dispatch, with duties prepaid.
