I've got these three Dragonball Z figures (Goku, Krillin, and ?)  that I know were domestic releases in the U.S. I got these in Walmart back in the 90's when I'd buy anything anime-related and remember that just these three figures were released, which seemed weird to me because DBZ wasn't a very popular franchise over here at that time. Each of them has an action feature.

 

Does anyone know which series this is from? There are so many DBZ toys that I'm having a hard time slogging through. Searched on eBay and didn't see any of the like turn up, but I'm sure they're just buried in there somewhere.

They are probably limited because those three are not from DBZ but from Dragon Ball itself. It is the series before DBZ and those were probably released when the series was first kicking off. Also the other guy is Yamcha. Best pervert in existence!

...Yamcha. Best pervert in existence!

 

Thanks man, but I have to disagree on this point...

Hahahaha no problem! Also, you may luck out because I only found one yamcha on ebay and he was mislabeled. Maybe they are rare?  I see the series first hit around 85 so it probably came out when they hit the US so my guess is around 95-96. Also, I can assume its by Bandai lol

Also, I looked through a ton of DB ebays and there is a few on there but NO ONE seems to know what series this is from lol oh boy

Those were figures sold in playsets at suncoast for the release of dragonball on cartoon network around 2001.  one set were those figures, one set had the rabbit and goku in blue, one set had bulma and others as well.

hmm perhaps they're similar, but I know that can't be them. I remember buying these individually carded at Walmart in the mid 90's

found this image after exhaustive searching. This is the cardback they came on when I got them, released in US in 1995 apparently. Thanks for the tips guys.
