Get your balls ready for some of the absolute best Dragon Ball Z gifts of 2022. I am speaking of Dragon Balls of course.
Dragon Ball Z is one of the most celebrated anime series’ of all time. And it’s easy to see why.
It’s a heck of a good time, action packed, and kind of insane.
Did I just describe myself? Nope… I’m talking about Dragon Ball Z!
Of course, the beloved anime series has spawned a ton of related media including manga, films, video games and merchandise.
We even gave a Dragon Ball Z video game the number one spot on our list of the Best Anime Fighting Games.
If you’re a fan of the series, there’s a ton of cool swag out there to help show your love to everybody around you.
So let’s crack on and take a look at the best Dragon Ball Z gifts!
1. Dragon Ball Z Sticker Pack
Let’s start this list off with an easy one, a Dragon Ball Z Sticker Pack!
If you are a fan of literally anything, then there is a sticker pack out there for it. We guarantee it.
Well, Dragon Ball Z is no different. There are a ton of listings out there for packs of awesome stickers you can slap up anywhere and everywhere to show your love for the Dragon Ball Z anime.
Stick ’em on your skateboard, stick ’em on a street sign in your neighborhood. Stick ’em on your car, or stick ’em on your friends face while they sleep.
Just stick ’em wherever you want, we don’t care.
For less than $10, you can’t go wrong with this Dragon Ball Z gift.
2. Dragon Ball Z Backpack 4 Piece Set
There ‘ain’t no cooler way to send your kids to school than with this Dragon Ball Z backpack 4 piece set.
Or, in what will be a common theme in this list of Dragon Ball Z gifts, it’s also an awesome gift for a grown adult. Because why limit yourself, right?
If you’re a 40 year old adult who loves Dragon Ball Z (like me), then be proud. Show the world.
But in all seriousness, these kinds of themed sets make for great gifts for children or adults, and is an easy addition to our list.
3. Dragon Ball Z Tournament Stage
If your kids have any of the many Dragon Ball Z action figures out there, we have the absolute best place for those figures to battle it out.
This is the perfect stage for a battle, cause.. well, it’s a stage. And one of the coolest parts is that it has actual battle damage options as well (notice the cracks on the wall).
This tournament stage will literally break apart as your favorite Dragon Ball Z characters punch it out. Then you can rebuild and start it all over again.
These are the kinds of toys we needed when we were kids. Still, at least we can both afford to buy them and play with them now we’re adults!
4. Dragon Ball Z Tankard
If you’re a fan of Dragon Ball Z and a fan of drinking, then why not suck down some fluids in this Dragon Ball Z tankard?
It’s officially licensed, so you can feel confident knowing you’re supporting the real Dragon Ball franchise.
But really, it’s just another super easy gift for any fan of Dragon Ball. Plus, who doesn’t need a good glass for your drink of choice while working or just hanging out at home.
I would happily drink a Coca Cola or 100 out of this cool tankard.
A great Dragon Ball Z gift for just about anybody.
5. Dragon Ball Z Monopoly
We are suckers for a good crossover, and these board game crossovers are always an easy winner with gaming fans.
Take one of the most popular board games of all time (Monopoly) and combine it with one of the most popular animes of all time (Dragon Ball Z) to make Dragon Ball Z Monopoly… that’s a good mix right there.
Knowing what we know about the game of Monopoly and knowing what we know about Dragon Ball Z, it’s hard to imagine how the two will mix.
But it just works!
So if you’re looking for a great Dragon Ball Z gift to send to the Retro Dodo Mansion, then start with this one.
6. Dragon Ball Z Fleece Blanket
If you’re having a nice night at home re-watching some of your favorite episodes of Dragon Ball Z, or maybe having a game of Dragon Ball Z Monopoly with friends, then this comfy Dragon Ball Z Fleece Blanket is one of the best Dragon Ball Z gifts one can give or receive.
It’s a blanket, I don’t think we gotta explain to you how to use it.
Get one!
7. Primitive Dragon Ball Z T-Shirt
Primitive Skateboards have had a number of official Dragon Ball Z products over the years.
Unfortunately, most of the Skateboard decks are sold out on most major platforms. If you can find one, it will cost you a pretty penny! (Take a search for primitive dragon ball z skateboard deck listings on eBay just in case there are some there.)
One of the officially licensed products that you can still find today are the Primitive X Dragon Ball Z tshirts, and these things are sweeeeeeet!
There are a few out there in the wild, but this oversized vintage tie-dye shirt is my personal favorite.
I’d happily wear any one of the Primitive X Dragon Ball Z collabs, so once again… if you’re looking to send me a gift… here’s a good one. 🙂
8. Dragon Ball Z Basketball Jersey
If you are a fan of Dragon Ball Z Basketball Jersey wearables, than look no further than this super sweet basketball jersey.
There’s plenty of Dragon Ball Z merch out there. Some official, some unofficial… but this one is one of the most stylish. Even though.. I don’t think it’s an officially licensed product.
I’ve never been a brand snob anyways. Official or not, I’d wear it.
9. Dragon Ball Z Goku Bathrobe
Are you less inclined to rock your Dragon Ball Z merch outside of the privacy of your home?
Well surely this crazy awesome bathrobe will satisfy your hearts desire to show your Dragon Ball love… without the need for others to see it.
But let’s keep it super real here… this robe would be just as awesome if you wore it out in public.
It’s soft, it’s cool lookin’, it’s got a hood, it’s got pockets!
And you can feel good knowing it’s an officially licensed product.
10. Dragon Ball Z Mens Moccasin Slippers
There’s no better companion to your Dragon Ball Z bathrobe than these comfortable lookin’ Dragon Ball Z Mens Moccasin Slippers.
They got orange fur on the inside. What else do you need to know?
Like the bathrobe, there’s no rules saying you can’t wear these in public on the daily.
11. Dragon Ball Z Camouflage Cap
Okay, one last wearable to round out the perfect Dragon Ball Z outfit – the Dragon Ball Z Camouflage Cap.
If we are being honest, we know that a lot of merch will be kind of loud and obnoxious in the wrong ways. It’s more of a novelty thing to wear them out in public, and might get a laugh.
But these camouflage baseball caps featuring a handful of the best characters from the Dragon Ball Z series are actually some of the most wearable.
I would happily rock one of these caps out in public and feel super confident that I am lookin’ damn good.
I love the subtle pop of color from the inside liner that matches the chosen characters, as well.
Easily one of the best Dragon Ball Z gifts available today, and one that I would love to receive myself.
One size fits all, officially licensed, officially cool.
12. Dragon Ball Z PS4 DualShock Protective Case
We cover a wide range of entertainment topics here at Retro Dodo, but this is a gaming website at the end of the day.
So it’s only right that we share one of the coolest ways to show your Dragon Ball Z love while gaming on your PS4… the Dragon Ball Z PS4 DualShock Protective Case
This silicon protective slip goes over your DualShock controller and gives it a safe and stylish appearance.
And it’s a Dragon Ball gift, so obviously it’s as orange as a… well, an orange.
It’s officially licensed too!
13. Funko POP Dragonball-Z Goku Eating Noodles
We love love loooove our Funko Pop toys when creating any “best gifts” type list.
And we are happy to see that there are a bunch of really awesome Dragon Ball Z Funko Pops out there.
One of our personal favorites is this really cute one of Goku eating some noodles.
It’s great seeing Funko Pops of some of our favorite characters looking stoic, ready for action, or like they are posing for their class photo.
But to see one of the most beloved Dragon Ball Z characters just chilling, suckin’ down some noodles… that’s relatable.
This one is an Amazon exclusive as well, so that’s kind of cool and we don’t have to tell you where you can get it.
14. Funko POP Dragon Ball Z Gold Toy
Of all of the Dragon Ball Z Funko Pop toys out there, this is surely the most extravagant.
It’s freakin gold! Okay, it’s plastic. But like, it looks gold, you know?
This one is a San Diego Comic Con exclusive, and might be a bit tough to get your hands on. But absolutely worth it if you can.
One of the coolest Funko Pop toys you can add to your collection, and one of our favorite Dragon Ball Z gifts in 2022.
15. Dragon Ball Z Goku / Pikachu Statue
Okay, we had to include this one!
It’s Goku… it’s Pikachu.. it’s Goku-chu?!
We can’t imagine that this one is officially endorsed by the Dragon Ball Z franchise or Game Freak, but it does say it was designed by B-O-D studio.
We had to do some research to see who that was, and while they don’t have much of an online presence (their website is currently down too), it seems that they are a Chinese design studio who has done some cool video work in the entertainment industry.
Not entirely sure they even actually had anything to do with this Goku-chu stat-ta-tue.
Official or not, that won’t stop us from putting this gorgeous statue on our bookshelf.
And it’s absolutely one of the best Dragon Ball Z gifts out there.
16. Funko Advent Calendar: Dragon Ball Z Pocket Pop!
What could be better than pulling a different Funko figurine out of this Funko Advent Calendar: Dragon Ball Z Pocket Pop! collection!
All the main faces and more are here for you to collect. We’ve got Master Roshi, Piccolo, Goku, and many more.
21 more in fact – 24 characters in total, one for every day in the run up to Christmas!
As this is a Pocket Pop set, the figures are smaller than the normal Funkos you might have in your games room. At around 2 inches tall, they’ll the perfect desk buddies!
17. Dragon Ball Z Mini Brick Figurines
Still, if you want figurines that are even smaller, then you can always grab these Dragon Ball Z Mini Brick Figurines!
These aren’t Lego figurines, but they will work with Lego sets.
Why not Goku in with Mario’s starter set or have Torankusu squaring off against the Mighty Boswer?
These figures are cheap too, perfect for sticking in a stocking to keep fans occupied on Christmas morning while you wake up!
18. Dragon Ball Z Complete Manga Set
Of course, none of these Dragon Ball Z gifts would even have been possible without the Manga series, which is why this Dragon Ball Z Complete Manga Set is such an important present for the Dragon Ball fan in your life.
