Dragon Ball - Variety Set by Banpresto (1993)

This time I'll start with the tag picture so you can get an idea on what to expect about this set:

Below the logo you can see the name of the collection "Variety Set" That means....

But then, we flip the tag to see the characters and we find....

I mean, what's the point to launch a Dragon Ball (first part of the series) if you throw in a Super Saiyan Gohan and a Kaioh Sama there? What about Yamcha, Bulma Roshi, Krillin?? I mean, like the ones in the front picture.

Not just the characters are from very different parts of the story. The materials in the plushes are also very distinct between them, which looks kind of strange.

Son Goku

First version of kid Goku with Tenkaichi Budokai uniform in plush form. He even has his tail!

Oolong

One of my favorites DB plushes from all series! The expression and the panty over his head are priceless

Puar

Puar looks fine being more plush fabric than poliester like other ones.

Karin

I read that USA fans know him more as Korin but LATAM and original Japan name is Karin

Super Saiyan Son Gohan

This figure looks great but as I was saying... what does he has to do with a (first part DB) set?

Kaioh Sama

No, he also doesn't belong to the picture on tag T_T

Dragon Ball Z - Super Saiyan Set by Banpresto (1993)

The second Dragon Ball set from Banpresto continued the same character design as the first one, but this time had 7 instead of 5 characters including a villain. In this case, the set is from Cell saga.

Again just serious faces, except Cell, who is more confident about being a SD character than the other ones :P

Son Goku

Super Saiyan Son Goku - Freezer saga version in a Cell saga set? Yeah, well, he looks cool at least.

Son Gohan

Fortunately, Gohan has his Cell saga look instead of Freezer one with that Beatles-like hair..

Vegeta

You must love that "don't f*ck with me" face!

Super Saiyan Vegeta

This one has more like a stomach-ache face. I prefer the previous one better.

Trunks looks just ok. He has a little sword on his back which is a great deal compared with the simplicity of the overall set

Super Saiyan Trunks

Not much to say. At least is a better face than his father's Super Saiyan version.

Cell

Yes, I'm perfect... Cell.

Different from the first set, this one has paper tags. This helps a lot to check how many figures completes it. Here's where you can see the set name below DBZ logo.

Captain Tsubasa by Banpresto (1993)

Captain Tsubasa is the quintessential soccer manga. It started in 1982 and as today, the manga is still publishing by the same author, Yoichi Takahashi

Latin American and European countries are known for their love towards soccer, so this anime/manga was and still is one of the most popular among general audience when it aired on TV years ago.

Banpresto launched this plushes set for the series of OVAs "Shin Captain Tsubasa" where Japan played in an U-16 World Cup.

It's a little odd that shorts are made of a different fabric than the rest of the plush but it's also that kind of fabric which really used in sport uniforms back then.

Tsubasa Ohzora - Our main protagonist. He's captain of Japan Jr. Team and he only thinks on soccer, all the time.

His best friend is the soccer ball. No, I mean it, he always says that!

Taro Misaki - He's Tsubasa's best friend (second after the ball, that is) and plays as MF.

Kojiro Hyuga - He's Tsubasa's rival during Elementary School tournament and Japan's best FW.

He's not angry. He's just more serious about soccer than... all other characters.

Karl Heinz Schneider - He's captain of Germany U-16 National Team and plays the final versus Japan.

I really think he's just basically a Super-Saiyan version of Tsubasa.

And now... the Soccer Ball. Well, it is Tsubasa's best friend so, why not?

Finally, the tags:

Allright, you put other characters in the tag but not into plush!

Did you really need to put a picture of the ball?
