Japanese “Sand Land” Theatrical Attendee Bonus Items Include Akira Toriyama Illustration Art Board and “Super Dragon Ball Heroes” Card
Published by 29 June 2023, 4:38 PM EDT

Alongside the Sand Land theatrical debut this August in Japan, a special “Akira Toriyama Hyper Assortment” — a special pack of bonus items — will be distributed to attendees, including a special A5-sized art board with an illustration by Toriyama, as well as a Beelzebub card for the arcade game Super Dragon Ball Heroes:

The bonus pack is limited to 600,000 copies and will be allocated based on each individual theater.

Beelzebub’s card — UGMSL-01 (indicating a card from the currently-ongoing “Ultra God Mission” update series for “Sand Land”) — is listed with the ability “Demon’s Fury” (悪魔のブチギレ Akuma no Buchigire).

Collaboration events with other theatrical films are not unheard of for the Dragon Ball Heroes series: 2016’s “God Mission 9” update featured a crossover with One Piece: Film Gold wherein, for a limited time, players could pit Goku and Luffy against the film’s main villain, Gild Tesoro.

Sand Land was originally serialized within the pages of Weekly Shōnen Jump in Japan from May to August 2000 spanning 14 chapters. The series was compiled into a single volume that November. Sand Land went on to act as a debut series within Viz’s Shonen Jump print magazine in America in 2003, both running to completion and receiving its own collected volume later that same year. The new theatrical film is set for release in Japan 18 August 2023 with animation produced by Sunrise, Kamikaze Douga, and Anima.
