My girlfriend rolled her eyes when it arrived. By day five she was asking me who was in today's drawer. Goku on day one, and by Christmas Eve the whole Z Fighters lineup on my desk.
He grew up with Goku. Now he gets 24 mornings of him.
Saturday mornings, the TV, Goku powering up for three episodes straight. Every Dragon Ball fan remembers it, and every one of them still wants a piece of it.
This is the 40th Anniversary Advent Calendar: 24 numbered drawers, and behind every one a Dragon Ball figure in its own foil pack. Goku on the first morning, then Vegeta, Piccolo, Frieza, Cell, Buu, all the way to Shenron.
One drawer a day. By Christmas Eve the whole lineup is standing on his shelf, and nobody can tell him to stop buying toys.
How the calendar works
Four steps. Nothing to set up.
-
Step 1
Put it where he'll see it
Take the box out, lift the lid and stand it on the desk, the shelf or under the tree.
-
Step 2
One drawer a day
From December 1st he pulls out a numbered drawer and tears open the foil pack.
-
Step 3
The lineup grows
Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Frieza, Cell: a new face from the series every morning.
-
The result
The full lineup by Christmas Eve
24 figures to line up on the shelf, long after the tree comes down.
You know how most anime advent calendars end
Three stickers, a keyring and a chocolate in every other door. By the tenth he has stopped opening it. This one is built the other way round.
Every drawer is a figure. 24 numbered drawers, and in each one a Dragon Ball character in its own foil pack. No sweets and no cardboard to fill the gaps.
The characters he knows. Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Frieza, Cell, Majin Buu, Beerus, Broly, and Shenron in the last drawers.
The box he keeps. The 40th Anniversary lid, Goku and Shenron in gold, Dragon Balls all round. Fans keep it on the shelf after the last drawer is open.
The gift he will actually keep
Most Christmas presents for a grown-up fan end up in a drawer. This one ends up on display.
Every morning in December there is a new figure to stand next to the others. By Christmas the desk, the shelf or the TV unit has the whole lineup on it, and the 40th Anniversary box is still standing behind them in February.
If he grew up on Dragon Ball, this is the one present you never have to explain.
2,140 fans have opened one. 312 came back for a second as a gift.
Our promise to you
We pick every calendar we sell with one question: will it still be on the shelf after Christmas?
This one passed. If it does not do that for you, write to us within 45 days and you get every penny back. No forms, no questions.

What fans say about the Dragon Ball Calendar
Fans and partners say there is a Dragon Ball figure behind every drawer and that opening one with the morning coffee became the best part of December. Grown-up fans who grew up with the series say it took them straight back, partners say it was the easiest present they have ever bought, and the 40th Anniversary box stays on the shelf with the figures in front of it. Many bought a second as a gift. A few admit they opened more than one drawer a day.
I've had anime calendars with chocolate and keyrings before and got bored by the second week. This one is a figure in every drawer. Looked forward to it every morning.
My husband grew up on Dragon Ball Z and still watches it. I gave him this on the 30th of November and he opened the first drawer at 6am like a ten year old.
I was expecting something cheap looking. The box is gorgeous, the 40th Anniversary lid is proper shelf material, and the figures are great little characters.
Saving Shenron for the last drawers was a great touch. The whole crew lined up with the dragon behind them looks brilliant on the shelf.
I never know what to buy him. This was the first present in years that he actually got excited about. He sent a photo of every figure to his group chat.
Great calendar. The hardest part was not opening all 24 drawers on the first night. I managed, just about.
My son is 12 and has just discovered Dragon Ball. Every morning before school he opened a drawer and told me the whole backstory of the character.
Watched DBZ every day after school in the 90s. Opening a drawer with my coffee every morning took me straight back. Worth it.
One for my husband and one for my brother. They compare what they got every morning on WhatsApp. Best money I spent this Christmas.
Vegeta came out on day three and I'm not ashamed to say I was buzzing. Great selection of characters, not just the main five.
It's February and the figures are still lined up on his desk at work. His colleagues all asked where it was from.
As a collector I was sceptical, but the box alone is worth it. I've kept it on the shelf with the figures in front of it.
My partner is impossible to buy for. This sorted it. He even said thank you on Boxing Day again.
Really happy with it. Personally I'd have loved a Super Saiyan Goku as well as the normal one, but every drawer had something good.
He is 10 and counted down every single day. On the 24th he had them all lined up on the windowsill like an army.
Getting the villains was the best bit. Frieza, Cell and Buu all made it in, which is how it should be.
The look on his face when he saw the Dragon Ball box under the tree. Thirty-six years old and grinning like a kid.
No shame. Bought it for myself. Best part of every morning in December.
Got two so my boys (9 and 13) wouldn't fight. They opened their drawers together every morning and traded duplicates of nothing because there weren't any.
The lid with Goku and Shenron in gold looks fantastic. It's staying on my shelf all year.
Worth every penny for the reaction alone. He sent me a photo of each figure every morning while I was at work.
Bought it for myself and my 8 year old claimed half the figures. Will have to buy two next year.
Bought it for my dad who introduced me to Dragon Ball. He's 52 and loved it more than any present I've ever given him.
Wasn't expecting Beerus and Whis in there. The Super characters were a nice surprise next to the classic ones.
We took a photo on Christmas Eve with all 24 figures lined up under the tree. He's made it his phone background.
Not knowing who was next was half the fun. I tried to guess every evening and was wrong most of the time.
My 14 year old is too cool for most things. Not this. He opened it every morning without being asked.
Liked mine so much I bought a second for my best mate's birthday. He's a bigger fan than me.
The calendar is lovely and the figures are great. My husband had no self control and opened five on the first weekend, so that's on him.
Saw other Dragon Ball calendars in the shops that were mostly stickers and sweets. This one is figures behind every drawer.
He named every character before he'd even got the foil open. Fun every single morning.
Piccolo is my favourite character and he turned up on day seven. Made my week.
Bought this for my fiancé. He's 33 and was genuinely more excited about this than anything else he got.
If you know a Dragon Ball fan, just get it. Simple as that.
Coffee, drawer, guess the character. Our little routine every morning before work. Already miss it.
Very happy with it. Some days were bigger characters than others, but there wasn't a morning I didn't look forward to.
My husband and son take turns opening the drawers. Two generations of Dragon Ball fans, one calendar.
Broly on day 18 was the highlight. Great mix of classic and Super characters.
Missed out on an anime calendar last year because they sold out. Ordered early this time and glad I did.
My shelf is now officially a Dragon Ball shrine. No regrets.
He was so happy every morning. A bit of joy every day in a busy December.
Proper nostalgia hit. Krillin, Master Roshi, Yamcha, all the old faces.
Bought for my brother who is impossible to buy for. He said it's the best gift I've ever got him.
The figures are really nicely made and painted. They look great lined up.
Will be buying whatever version comes next year. He loved it.
The box alone is worth it. Gold Shenron on an orange lid, it's beautiful.
Wonderful calendar, my partner loved it and so did our son.

Frequently Asked Questions
24 numbered drawers, and in each one a Dragon Ball figure in its own foil pack: Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Frieza, Cell, Majin Buu, Beerus, Broly, Shenron and more.
No. Take it out of the box, lift the lid and it is ready.
Both. Most of our customers are grown-up fans who grew up with the series, or partners buying for them. It is just as popular with kids from 8 who watch Dragon Ball now. Small parts, so keep it away from children under three.
It is one of the easiest gifts to get right for a Dragon Ball fan. Instead of one present that is opened and put away, it is 24 mornings with the characters he already loves, and a lineup that stays on display.
It is rare, but it happens. Every order is covered by our 45-day money-back guarantee. Write to us and you get your money back in full, with no conditions.
Of course, and many people do. One for him and one for a brother, a son or a friend is the most common combination.

Best purchase in years
I bought it for my grandchildren and ended up ordering one for myself too. Ordering was easy and customer service answered me in under an hour when I had a question.
One of my best buys
Honestly one of the best things I've bought. The kids had it out of the box before they were even dressed.
The whole family loves it
I bought it before December and was pleasantly surprised. No batteries to hunt for, no hassle, just something they actually use.
Perfect Christmas gift
I gave it to my sister for her boy, and she's impossible to buy for. She sent me a video of him on Christmas Day. Thank you.
Well packed and great quality
Arrived well packed, exactly like the photos, and the quality is better than I expected.
