Dragon Ball Z Crane Game with Exclusive Collector Edition Figures

We’ve teamed with Namco Cybertainment Inc., one of the largest amusement game operators in the U.S. and Caribbean, to bring the Z-fighters to more than 780 amusement centers around the country.

You can already find some of these crane games around the country containing figures of the DBZ gang.  Think this is just an antiquated UFO catcher you played as a kid with subpar stuff animals?  Then you’re wrong. The Dragon Ball Z figure crane game will offer an entirely new experience for those who are familiar with the old crane concept. Now you can put your true crane skills to the test.

Instead of directing a crane claw to a random and, hopefully, substantial grip on a desired prize, crane players are able to utilize their skills to line up the claw fingers with one or more of the eight holes in the custom figure packaging for a precise hook on their favorite Dragon Ball Z figures. You can see some examples on the side of the page. Here’s what the containers look like.

There are 8 collectible characters in this first series:

SS Goku
Goku
SS Gohan
SS Vegetto
SS Vegeta
SS Trunks
Cell
Majin-Boo

Of course, it’s a limited quantity so you’d better win your favorite character before someone else does.
And it’s the standard $.50 to $1.00 per play.

These collector edition figure prizes are designed and manufactured by Banpresto Co., Ltd. of Tokyo, Japan and cannot be found in retail stores.  Want one? Then you’ll have to win one.  Find the closest game near you using this locator: http://blipstar.com/namcoarcade.jsp

If you’ve already won one of these awesome figures, I wanna see a picture of it, so post a link to the image in your comment.

    Yeah…

    So a friend of mine knows that I have collected all of Dragonball/Z/GT over the years and wanted to get these for me. He got me to take him to Wal-Mart where he managed to get Gohan after a few tries. Later on today he wanted to go back and somehow manged to get THREE of them in ONE grab. I am serious. And they were all different. His next try he got another and then he ran out of luck. So he won me five of them in one day. He says that he will get the other three soon (I guess he’s going back tomorrow).

    I found this place while I was attempting to find out what these were. I am so happy to hear that this is the only way they can be found.

    Here are the figures I have:

    Vigito
    Majin Vegita
    SSJ 2 Gohan
    SSJ Goku
    Cell

    Here is a picture to show that I’m not full of sh*t.

    The detail is really excellent, but I don’t have good lighting right now to show it off… sorry.

    I dont know if i found this too late, but can we get an update on if these machines are still out? If so what about an updated list of locations? There are only 3 locations in Southern California, 1 listed is at a hotel by Disneyland that changed its name 8 years ago to Paradise Pier, the other is INSIDE Disneyland.
    If we can buy the set that would be nice too. If anyone has found a machine in Cali please let me know. Thanks

    I have a complete set (all 8 figures) new in the box that I need to sell to sincere collectors. I also have a complete set opened, out of the box to sell.
    I also have extras of each (because I was skilled enough to win about 30 of them with a huge cup full of quarters) that I will sell individually.

    The guys at work were showing up with these after their lunch breaks yesterday. Turns out the walmart 2 minutes from work has a machine. I went up on my lunch and after 3 dollars was able to snag a trunks which is the one I wanted the most. I’d really like to get a vegeeta though so i’m hoping i’ll be lucky and snag one of those soon as well. :mrgreen:
