Dragon Ball 40th Anniversary Z-Fighters 2026 Advent Calendar

Since young Son Goku first met Bulma in the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump in 1984, Akira Toriyama’s martial arts epic has connected generations of fans through the search for the seven starred spheres and the bonds forged around Master Roshi’s island cottage. The Dragon Ball 40th Anniversary Z-Fighters 2026 Advent Calendar honors that four-decade milestone with a 24-day December countdown. Framed in Shenron emerald green with gold corner filigree and a raised golden 40 YEARS Four-Star Dragon Ball badge, the rigid paperboard cover depicts Super Saiyan Goku in a fur-trimmed Santa coat holding a wrapped gift before a snow-covered pink Kame House alongside Vegeta, Gohan, Kid Goku, Piccolo, and the Eternal Dragon Shenron.

From the earliest Flying Nimbus adventures and Turtle School training to Super Saiyan Blue fusions and Gods of Destruction, all 24 numbered compartments trace the full 40-year arc of the Dragon World.

Opening the hinged hardcover lid reveals an interior grid of 24 gold-framed perforated doors stamped in serif gold foil. Behind each daily window sits a recessed slot housing a three-dimensional molded ornament fitted with a top brass eyelet and braided gold hanging cord.

Saiyans, Martial Arts Mentors, Saga Rivals & Dragon World Landmarks

• Saiyan Warriors & Earth’s Z-Fighters: Door 1 kicks off December with Super Saiyan Goku in a red Santa coat carrying a green gift box, followed by Vegeta flashing a two-finger peace sign in a green Christmas tree knit sweater (#2) and Kid Goku riding the yellow Flying Nimbus with a toy sack (#4). Fellow defenders join across the month: Master Roshi in full Santa attire (#5), Piccolo in a red cape and Santa cap (#6), Super Saiyan Gohan holding a candy cane (#7), Future Trunks with his sword and winter scarf (#8), Krillin cradling the translucent Four-Star Dragon Ball (#9), Bulma in a festive red Santa dress (#10), and Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta (#15).
• Iconic Antagonists, Deities & Masters: Classic saga rivalries and cosmic training grounds come to life through Majin Buu munching on holiday cookies (#11), Final Form Frieza hovering inside a clear snow globe atop a purple-and-gold DRAGON BALL plinth (#12), Perfect Cell wrapped in a striped winter scarf (#13), Broly holding a wrapped present (#14), Destroyer Beerus enjoying a pudding cup (#16), angel attendant Whis with his staff (#17), Korin with a jar of Senzu Beans (#18), Puar (#19), and King Kai with Bubbles (#20).
• Kame House, Capsule Corp & Shenron Relics: Four dedicated world-building ornaments anchor the collection: Eternal Dragon Shenron coiled inside a red-bow holly wreath (#3), the spherical CAPSULE CORP spaceship (#21), a snow-roofed Kame House island miniature (#22), an embossed gold Shenron medallion (#23), and a Christmas Eve holly wreath holding all seven starred Dragon Balls (#24).

Throughout December, the braided gold cords let families hang Shenron, the Capsule Corp ship, and the Z-Fighters directly from Christmas tree branches or mantel garlands. Once the holiday lights come down, the flat-bottomed figures, Kame House model, and Frieza snow globe stand upright across a gaming desk, bookshelf, or display cabinet as a permanent 40th Anniversary tribute.
