Dragon Ball Fusion World Chase Card Price History (2024-2026)

Fusion World’s chase cards have followed a pretty consistent boom-and-cool cycle since the game launched in February 2024: a sharp price spike right after a set drops (worsened once, badly, by real-world tragedy), followed by a multi-month decline as supply catches up and the next set steals the spotlight. The one outlier is BANDAI’s Manga Booster line, which has held value far better than a normal FB-numbered set. As of August 2026, the single most expensive Fusion World chase card on the secondary market isn’t from the original FB01 launch set at all — it’s a Son Goku alt-art from the June 2025 Manga Booster 01 (SB01).

This isn’t financial advice — card values swing fast, grading adds a huge premium most raw copies never see, and everything below is a snapshot, not a forecast. Treat it as a guide to the pattern, not a price you’re guaranteed to hit if you sell tomorrow.

Quick Terminology Note: Does Fusion World Actually Have “SPR” Cards?

If you’ve been searching for “Fusion World SPR prices,” it’s worth clearing this up first: Fusion World’s official rarity list (confirmed on BANDAI’s own card database) is L (Leader), C (Common), UC (Uncommon), R (Rare), SR (Super Rare), SCR (Secret Rare), and SCR★ (Secret Rare Alt Art) — no SPR tier exists. “SPR” (Special Rare) was a rarity from the original Dragon Ball Super Card Game, the pre-2024 line now rebranded “Masters,” which still runs its own separate Zenkai Series and is not compatible with Fusion World cards. When people say “Fusion World SPR” they almost always mean the SCR and SCR★ (Super Alternate Art) chase cards — those are the cards this article covers.

The Launch Spike: FB01 Awakened Pulse and the Toriyama Tribute Bump

Fusion World launched worldwide on February 16, 2024, with the first booster set, Awakened Pulse (FB01), and five single-color starter decks. FB01 sold out at most retailers within hours, which is the normal first-week story for any hot new TCG set — early secondary-market prices always run hot purely on scarcity.

What made FB01 different is timing: creator Akira Toriyama passed away on March 1, 2024, less than two weeks after the set hit shelves. FB01 was the last major Dragon Ball card product connected to his active involvement, and Son Goku’s alt-art SCR (FB01-139, “Super Alternate Art”) and the alt-art Leader (FB01-001) became de facto tribute cards. Collector-focused price sites reported PSA 10 copies of FB01-139 appreciating sharply in the following weeks — one price-tracking blog put the jump at 40-80% within a month, though that specific figure comes from a single source and should be read as directional, not exact.

What’s verifiable: as of August 2026, TCGplayer lists FB01-139 (Super Alternate Art) at a market price around $10-15 raw, with graded PSA 10 copies having sold closer to $500 on eBay as recently as August 2025. That’s a meaningful step down from the $600-1,200 PSA 10 range some outlets cited near the emotional peak in spring 2024. The caveat here cuts both ways: the tribute narrative gave FB01 real staying power compared to most first sets in a new TCG, but it also means a chunk of that early price was grief-driven sentiment rather than competitive demand — and sentiment-driven spikes are exactly the kind that fade as a set moves further from the news cycle.

FB02 Through FB09: No Single Chase Card Has Repeated FB01’s Run

Since FB01, BANDAI has shipped roughly one new FB-numbered booster set every two to four months: Blazing Aura (FB02, May 2024), Raging Roar (FB03, Aug. 2024), Ultra Limit (FB04, Nov. 2024), New Adventure (FB05, Feb. 2025), Rivals Clash (FB06, May 2025), Wish for Shenron (FB07, Sep. 2025), Saiyan’s Pride (FB08, Dec. 2025), and Dual Evolution (FB09, Mar. 2026). Each set has shipped two SCR chase cards (standard SCR plus an SCR★ Super Alternate Art), and each has followed roughly the same curve: a $50-150 opening-week price for the flashiest pull, settling into the $10-30 range within two or three months as pull-rate math catches up to demand and the next set arrives to redirect collector attention.

Raging Roar’s Son Goku: GT (FB03-140, SCR★) is a good example of a card that’s held up better than most FB01-era cards specifically because it’s tied to a well-liked, harder-to-reprint form (Goku’s GT design) rather than a generic base form. That’s the general downside of chasing any single-set alt-art: unless the card is tied to competitive relevance or a distinctive character design, its price ceiling is set almost entirely by how hyped that particular set was in its first month, and most sets aren’t FB01.

Manga Booster 01 (SB01): The New Price Ceiling

Manga Booster 01 (SB01) released June 27-28, 2025, to mark Dragon Ball’s 40th manga anniversary, and it broke the normal pattern. Every card in the set uses Toriyama’s original hand-drawn manga panel art on a full-foil treatment instead of the anime-style digital art Fusion World normally uses — and because it draws on his manga work specifically, it reads as a more direct piece of his legacy than a standard SCR ever could.

The chase card, Son Goku (SB01-023, Alternate Art), is the priciest single card in the Fusion World line as of August 2026: BGS 9.5 copies have sold in the $600-700 range, and Japanese resale-tracking site SNKRDUNK has reported the rarest numbered/parallel copies fetching prices in the ¥800,000+ range (roughly $5,300-5,500) — an outlier figure for a single top-condition print, not a typical sale, but real enough to make SB01-023 the format’s benchmark chase card. The set-level price backs this up too: a sealed SB01 booster box runs around ¥50,691 (about $340) at Discovery Japan Mall, roughly four to five times what a standard FB-numbered box costs.

The downside worth flagging: SB01’s value is driven almost entirely by nostalgia and a one-time anniversary tie-in, not competitive play — some of the cards aren’t even the strongest tournament options in their color. If BANDAI leans on the Manga Booster format again (which it already has, see below) or if Toriyama-anniversary hype cools, there’s real risk that today’s price gets seen as a peak rather than a floor.

Manga Booster 02 and the Sign of a Cooling Trend

BANDAI followed up with Manga Booster 02 (SB02) in November 2025, using the same all-foil manga-art format. Tellingly, a sealed SB02 box runs around ¥36,952 (about $250) at Discovery Japan Mall as of this writing — noticeably below SB01’s current ¥50,691 price. That’s a fairly normal pattern for a “special/premium” sub-line in any TCG: the first entry captures the novelty and scarcity premium, and the second entry, even with comparable production values, settles for less because collectors know a third one is probably coming.

FB10 Cross Force: Fresh Set, Fresh (and Riskier) Speculation

Cross Force (FB10), Fusion World’s tenth mainline booster set, released June 12-13, 2026 — the newest set on the market as of this article. It introduced three new SCR chase cards (Vegito, Son Gohan: Childhood, and Cell), each with a standard and Super Alt-Art version. Vegito’s SCR★★ has reportedly been listed by at least one Japanese reseller at a deliberately eye-catching ¥777,777 (referencing the classic “shooting star” jackpot number in Japanese slot culture) — that’s an opening-week asking price from a single listing, not an established market rate, and it’s exactly the kind of number that tends to correct hard within a few months once supply from a full print run works through the system. FB10 isn’t yet stocked at Discovery Japan Mall as of this writing, so if you want a piece of this set, your best bet right now is a general Fusion World retailer or waiting for wider distribution.

BANDAI has already confirmed the next mainline set, FB11 (“Brightness of Hope”), for October 2026, which — going by the pattern above — will likely put a ceiling on how much longer FB10’s SCRs stay at launch-week prices.

Price Snapshot Table (as of August 2026)

Prices are approximate, compiled from TCGplayer, PriceCharting, eBay sold listings, and Japanese resale-tracking site SNKRDUNK as of August 2026; grading company (PSA/BGS), specific print run, and individual listing all cause real variance. This table is for pattern-spotting, not a valuation guarantee.

What Actually Moves These Prices

• Launch-week scarcity. Every set sells out fastest in its first two weeks, which is when chase-card prices peak regardless of the card’s long-term merit.
• Real-world events. Toriyama’s death is the clearest example in Fusion World’s short history — an external event, not a game mechanic, drove the single biggest price move the format has seen.
• New-set cannibalization. A new SCR chase card every few months means collector dollars constantly rotate to the newest shiny thing, capping how long an older set’s price can keep climbing.
• Competitive relevance. Cards that stay playable in the current Standard format (rotation matters here — see the FAQ below) hold value better than cards that get power-crept out of relevant decks.
• Reprints and adjacent products. Manga Boosters, tournament promos, and starter-deck reprints of popular characters all add supply that can quietly soften a card’s price months after the fact.

Where to Buy Fusion World Product Safely

If you’re buying sealed booster boxes rather than chasing individual graded singles, Discovery Japan Mall currently stocks real Japanese-print Fusion World product, including Blazing Aura (FB02) Booster Box, Raging Roar (FB03) Booster Box, New Adventure (FB05) Booster Box, Rivals Clash (FB06) Booster Box, Saiyan’s Pride (FB08) Booster Box, Manga Booster 01 (SB01), and Manga Booster 02 (SB02) — note a couple of these are listed under literal machine-translated Japanese titles (“Fiery Fighting Spirit” for FB02, “Looming Threat” for FB06, “Unknown Adventure” for FB05) rather than the official English set names, so double-check the FB-code in the title before buying. FB01, FB04, FB07, FB09, and FB10 aren’t currently in their catalog — for those, a general hobby/TCG retailer that ships internationally is your best option. Whichever route you use for sealed product, buying loose graded singles from unverified marketplace sellers carries real counterfeit and mis-grading risk, so stick to established grading companies (PSA, BGS) and sellers with verifiable sales history.

FAQ

Does Dragon Ball Super Card Game Fusion World have SPR (Special Rare) cards?
No. Fusion World’s official rarities are L, C, UC, R, SR, SCR, and SCR★ (Secret Rare Alt Art). SPR is a rarity from the original, pre-2024 Dragon Ball Super Card Game, now branded “Masters,” which runs as a completely separate, non-compatible product line.

Why did Fusion World card prices spike so hard right after launch in 2024?
Two things stacked on top of each other: normal first-set scarcity (FB01 sold out within hours almost everywhere), and Akira Toriyama’s death on March 1, 2024, less than two weeks after launch, which turned FB01’s Son Goku alt-art cards into tribute collectibles almost overnight.

Is buying Manga Booster 01 (SB01) a good investment?
It’s held value better than any standard FB-numbered set so far, but its price is driven by nostalgia and scarcity around a one-time 40th-anniversary tie-in, not competitive playability. Treat any card purchase as collecting, not investing — prices can and do reverse, especially once a “special” product line gets a sequel (which already happened with SB02 at a lower price point).

Are Fusion World cards subject to a rotation/banlist that could hurt older chase cards’ value?
Fusion World uses a Standard format that periodically rotates out the oldest legal sets, so a chase card’s competitive relevance (and therefore part of its price) can drop once its set rotates out, even if the card itself never gets banned. Always check the current Standard-legal set list on the official BANDAI site before assuming an older SCR is still tournament-usable.

Where can I buy real Japanese Fusion World booster boxes from outside Japan safely?
Stick to retailers that show the actual BANDAI model number (FBxx/SBxx) in the listing and ship sealed product with tracking, such as Discovery Japan Mall for the sets it currently stocks, or a well-reviewed general TCG import shop for sets that aren’t currently listed there.

Takeaway

Fusion World’s price history so far tells a simple story: scarcity plus an emotional news event (Toriyama’s passing) built FB01 into a lasting outlier, the Manga Booster line has replaced it as the format’s real price ceiling on the strength of nostalgia and low print runs, and every standard FB-numbered set in between has followed a predictable spike-then-cool curve as the next set arrives. If you’re buying for the shelf, get what you love. If you’re buying because a card is “up right now,” remember that most of Fusion World’s price history is measured in months, not years — and a lot can still change before this format has its first full rotation cycle behind it.
