Today, company officials launched the official website to support a property that continues to make massive strides.
The new website features sections devoted to the basics of game play, product checklists, rules, a store locator, and direct feeds to the Official Panini America Dragon Ball Z Blog and the company’s social media feeds.

Teaser: Panini America Breaks One Box of the New Heroes & Villains
Panini America Dragon Ball Z Brand Manager Aik Tongtharadol surprised me earlier today with one hot-off-the-presses box of the company’s highly anticipated Heroes & Villains Booster box. Almost before he turned around and left the marketing office, I had the box opened and the first few packs ripped.
