The Dragon Ball Z Car
For fanatics of this legendary, long-running Japanese manga, you may think that what I’m referring to as the Dragon Ball Z Car is the one that looks like a jalopy which almost self destructed when it hit the oblivious Goku. But actually, I’m not referring to that - in fact what I want to share with you is a real car.
I know, I know, this blog is about cartoons with cars or cars in cartoons or whatever. But this car looks awesome that I have to share it with you. But before that, for those who are not familiar with Dragon Ball Z, let me fill you in those important details first.
The story revolves around Goku and his family and friends. He fights to defend the Earth from numerous villains. Since childhood, Goku has fought many battles and through it all, he became the best fighter in the universe. Now that’s a title that not even Chuck Liddell or Floyd Mayweather can attain in their lifetime. But how come the title Dragon Ball, you ask?
The Dragon Balls according to Wikipedia are “seven magical orbs which are scattered across the world. When assembled, they can be used to summon Shenron, the dragon who will grant one wish within its limit. After the wish is granted, the Dragon Balls are scattered again across the world and become inert for one year. In times past, it would take generations to search the world and gather the Dragon Balls.”
Talk about a treasure hunt. Lol.
As for the popularity of this Japanese manga, check this out. There have been thirteen movies made about the manga. Even the Once Upon in China film series only extended to six movies. In comparison, the Star Wars saga has six movies to its credit. This shows the popularity of the Japanese anime.
And now, here’s the car that I want to share with you. Pretty cool, eh? Check out the hood. What I really like about the car is the rear quarter panel with all those Dragon Balls flying out as if their really being thrown at the onlooker by an unseen force.
So, that’s it for now guys. More toons next time.
