These are candy tubes filled with jelly beans and have a novelty stamp as a stopper, with a 2D rubber figure on top. Various IPs have been done, these are the Dragonball ones.
6 different Dragonball Characters have been made; Goku, Piccolo, Gohan, Krillin, Vegeta and Master Roshi.
They are displayed in the shop standing up in a box of 24; 4 rows of 6.
The packaging is yellow and has a Goku and Vegeta in a fighting pose on it. The shop display box is mainly blue, and has artwork of Vegeta, Gohan and Goku. It shows the stamps in the corner.
The tube is simple plastic with a wrapper inside. There are 8 jelly beans inside. The stamp acts as a stopper to the tube.
I got 1.5/6.
Piccolo
For some reason I have the Vegeta stamp with my Piccolo. The 2D rubber figure is a chibi Piccolo standing proudly with a fist up and a smirk on his face. There is branding on its back, which simply reads ©B.S./S.,T.A.
Krillin
The stamp is simply the text “Krillin” in orange. The 2D rubber figure is a chibi Krillin standing proudly with hands in his side and a smile on his face. There is branding on its back, which simply reads ©B.S./S.,T.A.
I like stamps as, unlike stickers, you can keep re-using them. And finding Dragonball ones is practically impossible. So when I saw these candy tubes with stamps, I had to get them.
Various IPs have been done in this style apart from Dragonball, like Pokémon, Mario and Paw Patrol. Items that come with candy are also often quite niche and end up rare later, so I wanted to document them for prosperity.
I mainly bought these for the stamps. There were only 2 left, Krillin and Piccolo, and they were added to the Pokémon box in the shop, so I never saw the example stamps from them. Had I known these were just their names in text I might not have gotten them at all. I don’t like jelly beans, and I can’t say these are better than any others I’ve had. You only get 8 in a tube, which feels quite sad considering. I don’t care much for the rubber figures. They are of that typical Chinese quality. And the stamps are disappointing, especially considering the Pokémon and Paw Patrol ones being their faces, and Mario has their power ups as stamps. I thought these would be their chibi faces from the 2D figures, or even Dragonballs would have been better than this.
And to make matters worst, my Piccolo comes with a Vegeta stamp! I’m guessing the quality control on these isn’t great, so keep that in mind.
If you like Dragonball themed food items, or stamps, you might be interested in these.
If you’re more into other collectables, you’ll give these a miss.
