The history of Dragon ball It is inspired, at least initially, by the novel Journey to the West, a classic of Chinese literature in which Sun Wukong, the king of the apes, plays the leading role. In the Japanese version, this name was adapted with Son Goku, a central figure in the work of the master Akira Toriyama.

L ‘original idea from Goku, a child with a monkey tail, particularly strong and an expert in martial arts, thanks largely to the teachings of his grandfather Gohan, has become much more complicated and unlike what Toriyama had in mind at the beginning. In Dragon Ball Z it is revealed that Goku is actually part of an alien race of warrior warriors who are solely interested in conquering and expanding their domain, the Saiyan.

Goku strongly opposes the principles that guide this society and will always remain the defender of the earth, although the techniques learned, the transformations and the approach to characters that are believed to be divine will end up completely differentiating the character from the origins. There its history and development have been summed up in a magnificent statue by Temple Studio Collectible from the Dragon Ball Memories series, several pictures of which you can find below.

Built on a rather anonymous base, the figure is about 60 centimeters high, but this immediately catches the fans’ eye the two versions of Goku, child and adult, depicted as a perfect Shenron dragon holding the four-star ball in its left paw. The quality of the product is beyond dispute, and anyone who wants to add it to their collection can pre-order or purchase it from the studio’s official website for a total of 650 Australian dollars approx. 415 eurosto get it between December 2021 and March 2022.

Keep in mind that Dragon Ball and other works have hit the auction houses driving revenue, and we’re leaving you with an incredible tattoo that sums up Vegeta’s story.
