Most Dragon Ball cards are worth under $5 each as of November 2026, whether they are 2000s Score cards, 1990s Japanese Carddass or modern Bandai cards. The exceptions are specific: early 1988-1991 Carddass prisms and popular Super Saiyan prisms sell for about $35-175, complete Score sets for about $115-200, the God Rare Power of Potara from the Dragon Ball Super Card Game for about $1,400-2,400, and the top Fusion World secret rares, such as the FB01-139 Son Goku super alternate art, for roughly $700-1,500.
Dragon Ball has had at least five card games and a long run of Japanese collector cards, each a separate market. Work out which one you have, then look for the handful of rare versions in it.
Quick answer
- Commons and ordinary rares from any era: under $5, most under $1.
- Score Dragon Ball Z CCG (2000-2006): complete base sets about $115-200 on two Mercari sales; the top Ultra Rares about $175-650 ungraded in 2026 sales, a few single cards over $1,000.
- Japanese Carddass prisms from the 1990s: most about $2-15 each, early 1988-1991 and popular Super Saiyan prisms $35-175. A complete 42-card set of one 1990s part about $35-135; the 1988 and 1989 parts far more. Recent Carddass Remix reprints sell for about $5-13.
- Dragon Ball Super Card Game: most cards under $1; the BT7-131 Power of Potara God Rare about $1,400-2,400 near mint, on thin sales.
- Fusion World (from 2024): the FB01-139 Son Goku super alternate art about $780-1,500 in recent sales on PriceCharting and Cardmarket, and about $1,370 in PSA 10.
Which Dragon Ball card game do I have?
Check the logo, the copyright line and the card number.
| Era | Game or line | How to recognize it |
|---|---|---|
| 1988 to 1990s | Bandai Carddass (Japan) | Small vending machine cards with Japanese text, a number on the back, prism or regular fronts |
| 2000-2006 | Score Dragon Ball Z CCG and Dragon Ball GT TCG | Score Entertainment and Funimation credits; saga name such as Saiyan, Frieza, Cell Games or Buu; Personality, Mastery and Combat card types |
| 2008 | Bandai Dragon Ball CCG | Short-lived Bandai game released in July 2008, with a Bandai copyright line |
| 2014-2016 | Panini Dragon Ball Z TCG | Panini credit, a remake of the Score game; numbers such as UR141 |
| 2017 onward | Dragon Ball Super Card Game, now called Masters | Numbers such as BT7-131 or BT29-150, rarities C, UC, R, SR, SPR, SCR, GDR and others |
| 2024 onward | Dragon Ball Super Card Game Fusion World | Numbers beginning FB, such as FB01-139; rarities up to SCR with alternate art versions |
How do I value a Dragon Ball card, step by step?
- Identify the game with the table above. A Score card and a Fusion World card of the same character have nothing in common in price.
- Read the card number and rarity. On Score cards, the rarity is shown by a symbol and the foil; on Bandai cards, by a code such as SR, SCR or GDR next to the number.
- For Score cards, check Limited or Unlimited. Score printed Limited and Unlimited runs. According to Wikipedia's entry on the game, Limited cards carry a dragon symbol in Dragon Ball Z sets, or the GT symbol in GT sets, and they sell for more.
- For Carddass, check the front. A prism card has a holographic, patterned foil surface; a regular card is flat printed. Then check the back for the series name and year: the Remix series, issued from 2024, reprints vintage designs.
- For modern cards, check the version. In both Bandai games, one card number can have a regular print, an alternate art and, at the top, a special version such as a God Rare or super alternate art.
- Judge condition. Score foils and Carddass prisms usually show edge wear and surface scratches, and the prices above assume that. Modern chase card prices assume near mint, so a played copy sells well under them.
- Price from sold results for the exact card and version, not from listings.
What are 2000s Score Dragon Ball Z cards worth?
Most single Score cards are worth $1-5; a played Level 1 Goku from the Trunks Saga sold for about $4 on Mercari in recent months. What carries value:
- Complete base sets. On Mercari, a complete Cell Games Saga base set of 123 cards with 14 foils sold for $115, and a complete Buu Saga base set of 149 cards with 30 foils for $200.
- Rare and Ultra Rare foils. On Mercari, a World Games Saga Goku, the King's Pupil #131 rare foil sold for $95 and a Super Saiyan Level 2 Gotenks Ultra Rare from the Buu Saga for $25. Treat these as single data points.
- The top Ultra Rares. PriceCharting's dated eBay sales put the best-known ones in the hundreds ungraded. The Cell Saga Goku, the All Powerful #160 sold eight times from April to June 2026 for $222-635; the Buu Saga Majin Buu #151 seven times from February to July 2026 for $175-325; and the Fusion Saga Gotenks, Super Saiyan 3 #124 five times from March to May 2026 for $250-470. Mercari sales agree: a Majin Buu #151 sold there for $201 and an Earth's Spirit Bomb Ultra Rare for about $238, while less sought Ultra Rares such as the Buu Saga Master Roshi #153, a Gohan, the Winner foil and Goku's Plan sold for $90-100.
- Prize cards and outliers. A Limited full foil Super Saiyan 3 Goku Ultra Rare sold for $2,000 on Mercari, and a Gohan, the Winner limited foil with a signature for about $1,220. These are single, undated sales; treat them as what a near-perfect copy of the best card can reach, not as a typical price. For scale, the regular Gohan, the Winner #134 sold for $4-10 eleven times from February to October 2026 on PriceCharting, and holo foil copies for $76 and $250 in April and May 2026.
- Sealed product. Unopened Score packs sell well above loose cards; a sealed Cell Saga booster pack sold for about $75 on Mercari.
PriceCharting lists most Score sets with dated sales, but not every card: we found no recorded sales for the World Games Saga Goku, the King's Pupil #131 in raw condition (one PSA 9 sold for $500 at Heritage in October 2026), for the Buu Saga Super Saiyan 3 Goku, or for complete sets and sealed Cell Saga packs. Price those from several recent sold listings on eBay and Mercari.
What are Japanese Carddass prism cards worth?
Most single prism cards from the 1990s sell for a few dollars. On Mercari, a 1994 Carddass #114 Goku versus Vegeta prism sold for $30, a 1993 #618 Bojack prism for $10 and a 1996 GT #6 Son Goku prism for about $10. Yahoo Auctions Japan, where most of these cards change hands, puts the same cards far lower: of 89 single Hondan prisms that closed between October 25 and November 2, 2026, half sold for ¥540 (about $4) or less and three quarters for ¥1,820 (about $12) or less, converted at about 150 yen to the dollar. The #114 Goku versus Vegeta sold there for ¥628 ($4) on October 31, 2026, and a #618 Bojack for ¥610 ($4) on November 1. The cards that sold higher were early and popular ones: a 1989 Part 3 #90 Vegeta at ¥19,800 and ¥26,500 ($132 and $177), a 1991 #374 Trunks at ¥5,044 and ¥11,500 ($34 and $77) and a 1991 #294 Super Saiyan Goku at ¥8,000 ($53). So we put most 1990s prisms at about $2-15 and the early and popular ones at about $35-175. Graded copies do better: a Carddass prism in CGC 10 sold for $350.
PriceCharting does not cover these later series: it tracks only the first 1988 Part 1 set, and has dated sales for almost nothing in it except the #1 Son Goku prism, the grail of the line, which sold ungraded for $1,988 on eBay in August 2026 and in PSA 1 for $1,599 in October 2026.
Complete sets are worth less than Mercari listings suggest. Complete sets for single series, such as Hondan Part 13 (cards 503-544), Super Battle Part 6 or Super Barcode Wars Part 2, sold for about $500-700 each on Mercari, but on Yahoo Auctions Japan complete 42-card first-print sets of single Hondan parts from 1990 to 1995 sold for about ¥5,000-20,000 ($35-135) in about 80 sales from July to September 2026, with a median near ¥10,700 ($71). Part 13 itself sold five times there for ¥8,505-17,000 ($57-113). The six prisms of one part alone sold for about ¥2,000-12,000 ($12-80). The exceptions are the first parts: a complete 1989 Part 2 set sold for ¥99,700 ($665) and a 1988 Part 1 set for ¥298,000 (about $1,990), and all 180 prisms of Parts 1 to 30 together sold for ¥199,800 and ¥249,800 ($1,330 and $1,665) in August and October 2026. The $500-700 Mercari sales have no match on Yahoo, so we price a complete 1990s Hondan part at about $35-135.
The trap is the Carddass Remix series. Bandai has reissued vintage Carddass designs in numbered Remix volumes since 2024, and Remix prisms sell for about $5-13: about 20 single Remix cards sold on Mercari for $5-13 by November 2, 2026, most at about $6. Mercari is our only source for Remix prices. Check the back for the Remix name and a recent year before pricing a prism as vintage. Amada PP cards, a different Japanese maker's cards often mixed into the same collections, are a separate market; single prism PP cards sold for about $15-35 on Mercari.
What are Dragon Ball Super Card Game cards worth?
Most are worth under $1; the Masters market is mostly players, and bulk sells by the thousand. The cards worth money are the special rarities:
| Card | Version | Recent price |
|---|---|---|
| BT7-131 Power of Potara (Vegito, Kefla and Zamasu) | God Rare (GDR) reprint from Fearsome Rivals (B29) | About $1,400 guide; $1,800-2,400 near mint in three February 2026 TCGplayer sales |
| BT29-150 SS Rose Goku Black, Justice Enforcer | Top rarity, Fearsome Rivals | About $275 ungraded; TCGplayer market price about $287 |
| BT29-149 SS Broly, Cutthroat Warfare | Top rarity, Fearsome Rivals | About $250 ungraded; TCGplayer market price about $250 |
| BT29-086 Goku Black | SLR | About $200 ungraded; TCGplayer market price about $187 |
TCGplayer's market prices for the three Fearsome Rivals cards agree with PriceCharting, but TCGplayer recorded no sales of the BT29-150 in the three months to November 2, 2026, and it shows no market price for the Power of Potara God Rare, only listings from about $2,000. No other recent sales turned up, so treat the $1,800-2,400 range as thin.
God Rares are the hardest pulls in the game. The Power of Potara was first printed as a secret rare in the 2019 Assault of the Saiyans set (BT7) and returned as a God Rare with new art and a gold finish in Fearsome Rivals, so check which version you hold: a played copy listed under the same number sold for $400 in July 2026.
What are Fusion World cards worth?
Fusion World, launched by Bandai in February 2024, is a separate game from the Masters game, with card numbers that start FB. Each set has secret rares (SCR) and alternate art versions, and the top version of the main secret rare is what collectors chase. PriceCharting labels it super alternate art; sellers often mark it with two stars.
| Card | Version | Ungraded | PSA 10 |
|---|---|---|---|
| FB01-139 Son Goku | Super alternate art | About $245 guide; recent sales $780-1,500 | About $1,370 |
| FB02-139 Vegito | Super alternate art holo | About $720; near mint sales $645-795 from July to September 2026 | About $1,350 |
| FB01-140 Son Gohan: Childhood | Alternate art | About $128; sales $110-133 in September and October 2026 | About $2,400 |
| FB01-139 Son Goku | Alternate art | About $65; sales $42-75 in September and October 2026 | About $254 |
| FB02-139 Vegito | Alternate art | About $104 | About $260 |
The FB01-139 line shows how easily versions get mixed up. PriceCharting's ungraded figure of about $245 is pulled down by sales of the cheaper alternate art listed under the same name: its record for the super alternate art includes sales of $696-1,500 from April to September 2026, among them $1,500 in July and $1,248 in August, alongside $70-105 sales that match the regular alternate art. Compare your card against the official card images on Bandai's Fusion World site before you price it.
TCGplayer's market prices agree with these figures within about 20 percent as of November 2, 2026: about $722 for the FB02-139 Vegito super alternate art, $147 for the FB01-140 Gohan alternate art, $78 for the FB01-139 Goku alternate art and $105 for the FB02-139 Vegito alternate art. For the FB01-139 Goku super alternate art, TCGplayer shows a market price of about $1,500 and listings from $1,050 but recorded no sales in the last three months. Cardmarket, Europe's largest card market, fills the gap: its 30-day average sale price for the English super alternate art was about €874 (about $975 at the ECB rate of $1.1172) on November 2, 2026, inside the range, though its price trend of about €1,683 (about $1,880) shows recent European sales running toward the top of it. The PSA 10 column is PriceCharting only.
A worked example
Say you find a shoebox from the early 2000s: about 400 Score Dragon Ball Z cards, mostly Saiyan, Frieza and Cell Saga commons, some foils, and a handful of small Japanese cards. The commons are worth about $20-60 as a lot. You pull the foils and look for the dragon Limited symbol and for Ultra Rare and rare foils of Goku, Gohan, Vegeta and Gotenks; each of those is worth checking at $10-100.
The small Japanese cards turn out to be six Carddass prisms. The backs show 1993 to 1995 dates and no Remix name, so they are vintage prisms, but from the later parts, at about $2-15 each, or roughly $15-60 together. If they were the six prisms of one part, sell them as a set, which brought about $12-80 on Yahoo Auctions Japan in 2026; a 1989 Part 3 Vegeta in the pile would be the one card worth pricing alone, at about $130-175.
Common mistakes
- Treating Score cards like vintage Pokemon. The money is in complete sets, top Ultra Rares and sealed product, not singles.
- Pricing a Remix prism as vintage. Check the back for the series name and the year.
- Mixing up Masters and Fusion World cards. Both say Dragon Ball Super Card Game; Fusion World numbers start FB.
- Pricing an alternate art at the super alternate art price, or the reverse. Same number, about ten times apart.
- Splitting a complete set. A full Carddass prism set or a complete Score base set sells better together.
- Grading cheap cards. Grading costs more than most Dragon Ball cards are worth; see our guide to PSA grading cost.
Where should I sell Dragon Ball cards?
| Channel | Cost to you | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| TCGplayer | A marketplace commission plus payment processing on each sale | Masters and Fusion World singles sold to players |
| eBay | A final value fee of 13.25 percent in Collectible Card Games up to $7,500, plus $0.40 per order over $10 | God Rares, super alternate arts, graded cards and Score Ultra Rares |
| Mercari | A seller fee on each sale | Score lots and sets and Carddass prisms; the set and outlier Score prices in this guide come from there |
| Local card shop | The shop's margin; offers sit well below market | Bulk Masters and Fusion World commons |
Ship any card worth more than about $20 in a sleeve and toploader inside a rigid mailer, not loose in an envelope.
How WorthPic reads Dragon Ball card photos
WorthPic runs on the newest and most capable AI model available, tuned for exactly this kind of identification. From photos of the front and back it reads which game or line the card belongs to, the card number, the rarity, the language and the version (regular, foil, prism, alternate art, God Rare or super alternate art), and for Score cards whether the Limited symbol shows, then gives an honest value range from recent sales with a most likely figure. It notes visible wear on edges, corners and foil. What it cannot know from a photo is whether a high-value card is genuine, or what grade a grading company would give. It identifies and estimates. It does not authenticate, grade or appraise. For a God Rare, a super alternate art or a top Score Ultra Rare, a grading service or an experienced card shop settles it.
What to photograph
- The front and back of each card you think is valuable, flat and in daylight, with the number and rarity readable.
- Foil and prism cards at an angle, to show the pattern and any scratches.
- For Score cards, a close photo of the area where the Limited symbol appears.
- For lots, one photo of the whole spread, and separate photos of the foils.
When to get it looked at in person
Commons and ordinary foils do not need an expert. A God Rare, a Fusion World super alternate art, a top Score Ultra Rare or a complete vintage Carddass prism set deserves an in-person look or grading before sale, both to confirm it is genuine and to fix its condition. For Bandai's other big card game, our One Piece cards guide covers manga rares and alt arts, and the Digimon cards guide covers the same split between 1999 cards and the modern game. For how grading, print runs and language affect trading card values across every game, see our category page.
