Time capsule

Has anyone ever done a time capsule and put anything Dragon Ball in it? Or know of any time capsules with Dragon Ball stuff inside?

Funnily enough, my little brother tried to bury his copy of Pokemon Sapphire and a toy Trunks in a time capsule in our backyard when he was like 8. Unfortunately he didn't bury it very deep... or in a waterproof box and the dog dug it up after it rained some time later. Needless to say, he was bummed to realize the game was toast. Happy to have Trunks back though.

Dang, that sucks! I always wanted to do one but never got around to even trying. I did have a Trunks figure fall behind a bookshelf and years later when we moved the bookshelf Trunks wasnt there :O

More than you realize, because that Sapphire copy had a bunch of rare Pokemon he'd collected through trading with friends and importing Pokemon over from used copies we'd get from Gamestop that no one ever seemed to bother erasing the data for. Even by the time Diamond and Pearl came out, we were still hitting the jackpot with used games coming full of Legendaries and shiny Pokemon. We nearly shit ourselves when we got a copy of Platinum and it had 2 Japanese Mews and a Celebi on it.

Sorry to hear about the Trunks though. Disappearing merch/toys is always a bummer to have to deal with.
