SOMETHING COOL: Bandai Namco DragonBall and My Hero Academia Themed Collectibles

Cool Collectibles Provided by Bandai Namco Toys and Collectibles America

As a consistently growing collection, the Dragon Stars Series is continuing to push out more of our favorite DragonBall Series characters into their own action figures. While they have a good amount of characters currently available on the Bandai website, they are starting to introduce Dragon Stars Series 7. This series is focusing on quite a few very familiar names and includes a little something special that hasn’t been in the previous Dragon Stars boxes.

But before we start focusing on the Dragon Stars Series 7 details, this isn’t the only new thing from the Bandai Namco Toys & Collectibles team! They are also going to start offering a My Hero Academia mystery bag with six different characters to collect. They are distributed at random, so it may be a challenge to get them all. But, if you do manage to get all six characters, you’ll have a neat little stand that is included for each character. The six characters included are:

  • Izuku Midoriya aka Deku

  • Katsuki Bakugo

  • Shoto Todoroki aka Shoto

  • Ochako Uraraka aka Uravity

  • Tenya Iida aka Ingenium

  • All Might

Once taken out of their boxes, they don’t include a stand but are balanced well enough that they can stand on their own. Both figures come with extra hand options, giving the hand motion for different attacks and stances that are seen in the show. Frieza even came with his own energy ball that fits on his finger! But an interesting piece was included in the box for Ultra Instinct Goku…

If you look a the first image, you can see a giant arm on the left of the packaging that doesn’t fit Goku’s character. When you check the back of the box, it shows that this arm belongs to a Broly figure! In fact, if you collect six specific characters from this Dragon Stars series, you can put Broly together. Here are the characters that contain Broly:

  • Vegeta (contains Super Saiyan Broly’s Head)

  • Super Saiyan Gohan [Adult] (contains Super Saiyan Broly’s Torso)

  • Ultra Instinct Goku (contains Super Saiyan Broly’s Right Arm)

  • Vegito (contains Super Saiyan Broly’s Left Arm)

  • Future Trunks (contains Super Saiyan Broly’s Right Leg)

  • Goku Black (contains Super Saiyan Broly’s Left Leg)

In the end, whether you plan to play with these figures or set them up for display in your collection, these are definitely some pretty cool collectibles! The whole Dragon Stars collection series is quite large and is continuing to grow. Plus, if you are a big DragonBall fan, it isn’t even the only collectible series they offer. Not to mention it is pretty cool that they are going to be including mystery bags for some other popular animes as well. These items are definitely being seriously considered for your set!
