Even though Dragon Ball (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Ball) is 25 years old, it’s still one of the most popular anime and manga series out there. There are tons of Dragon Ball-themed video games and other merchandising stuff all around the world, but Tokyo-based gourmandise (http://www.gourmandise.co.jp/) [JP] today announced what seems to be relatively rare: Dragon Ball-inspired gadgets. Their so-called DRAGONBALL HEADPHONE will be available in two versions.
The “Kame Type” (http://www.chara-ani.com/details.asp?prdid=B09B00141) [JP] model features the Chinese character for turtle (kame in Japanese), while the “Dragon Ball type” (http://www.chara-ani.com/details.asp?prdid=B09B00142) [JP] headphone features four stars, just like on the dragon ball Son-Goku received from his grandfather before his death.

The headphones can only be pre-ordered online and cost $40 each. As they’re Japan-only, contact the usual suspects Japan Trend Shop (http://www.japantrendshop.com/index.php?language=en), Geek Stuff 4 U (http://www.geekstuff4u.com/) or Rinkya (http://www.rinkya.com/) in case you want one shipped outside Japan.

I wonder how good they sound?
