FB08 Saiyan’s Pride Guide: SCR Alt-Arts & Japanese Box

FB08 Saiyan’s Pride Guide: SCR Alt-Arts & Japanese Box

Bandai’s eighth Fusion World booster went straight for the franchise’s core identity: a Saiyan-themed set with five new Leaders and alt-art treatments spanning Leaders, Super Rares, and Super Combo cards.

BOOSTER PACK -SAIYAN’s PRIDE- [FB08] carries 122 card types, a Super Rare count that stayed at the line’s new high of 15, and — per Bandai’s own product page — a “super Alt-Art version of the SCR card” alongside alt-art treatments across the Leaders, Super Rares, and Super Combo cards. It is also the newest of the four Fusion World sets we’re covering in this round, released a full year after FB04 and carrying the current-generation card pool forward.

This guide sticks to what Bandai has officially published: the exact rarity breakdown, confirmed Japanese and English release dates, where FB08 sits in the FB01–FB10 timeline, and how to order Japanese sealed boxes from our Tokyo warehouse. We do not publish market prices for Fusion World product — every box is quoted individually, because Japanese allocation on named sets like this one moves fast.

Key Takeaway

FB08 Saiyan’s Pride is the eighth main Fusion World booster: 122 card types, 5 new Leaders, 15 Super Rares, 2 Secret Rares, and a “super Alt-Art version of the SCR card” per Bandai’s official page. The Japanese booster box is currently listed (quote on request) — request a quote on the Japanese FB08 booster box here, since allocation moves fast on this set.

The official name is BOOSTER PACK -SAIYAN’s PRIDE- [FB08]. In Japan it released as ブースターパック 誇り高き戦闘民族 [FB08] — “the proud warrior race” — a direct nod to the Saiyans as a people rather than any single fighter.

For the release-date and structure context around every Fusion World set, our Fusion World sets in order article lays out the complete timeline.

What’s Inside: The Full 122-Card Breakdown

Bandai publishes the exact rarity split for FB08, and it looks like this:

Rarity Count Share of set
Leader 5 4%
Common 40 33%
Uncommon 30 25%
Rare 30 25%
Super Rare 15 12%
Secret Rare 2 2%
Total 122 100%

That 15-Super-Rare slot is worth flagging on its own. Every main Fusion World booster from FB01 through FB06 shipped with 12 Super Rares in its official breakdown. FB07 was the first to widen that slot to 15, and FB08 kept the same figure — two data points that suggest a wider SR tier, though later sets’ breakdowns aren’t published in our sources. Unlike FB02–FB04, which each carried a separate “Special Reprints” category on top of the base rarities, FB08’s 122 types come entirely from the six categories above — no reprint slot this time.

Reading the Breakdown

122 types with 15 SRs and no reprint slot is the leanest, most premium-weighted set in the FB07–FB08 pair. Compare that to FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT-, which ran 133 types including 25 alt-art cards and a 3-card reprint slot — a full year earlier in the line. See our FB04 Ultra Limit guide for that breakdown in detail.

The Alt-Art Layer: Leaders, SR, and the SCR Super Alt-Art

FB08’s product page leads with its alt-art coverage rather than treating it as a footnote: “Many Alt-Art cards included!” — spanning Leader Cards, Super Rare cards, and Super Combo cards. Bandai does not publish an exact alt-art count for FB08, so the category list is what collectors have to go on.

The headline chase piece, per Bandai’s own wording, is described as a “super Alt-Art version of the SCR card” — SCR being Fusion World’s Secret Rare tier, the rarest slot in the base rarity list. Bandai does not attach a pull-rate or print-count figure to that card on the fetched official page, so we are not going to invent one; what the official language confirms is that an SCR receives a distinct, elevated “super Alt-Art” treatment on top of the set’s two Secret Rare types.

Alt-art treatments on Leaders, Super Rares, and Super Combo cards sit inside a 122-card set — the smallest base pool of the FB01–FB08 run.

On Exact Counts

Bandai’s FB08 product page does not publish a single combined alt-art count the way FB01’s page did (“23 Alternative-art cards in this product”). We report the categories Bandai names — Leaders, SR, Super Combo, and the SCR super alt-art — without estimating a total.

Where FB08 Sits in the FB01–FB10 Line

Fusion World launched in February 2024 and has run on a roughly quarterly cadence since. Here is the complete main-booster timeline, with FB08 in context:

Set English name JP release EN release Card types
FB01 -AWAKENED PULSE- 2024-02-16 2024-02-23 140
FB02 -BLAZING AURA- 2024-05-10 2024-05-10 144
FB03 -RAGING ROAR- 2024-08-09 2024-08-16 143
FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT- 2024-11-08 2024-11-15 133
FB05 -NEW ADVENTURE- 2025-02-08 2025-02-14 133
FB06 -RIVALS CLASH- 2025-04-26 2025-05-02 123 (breakdown sum; total not stated)
FB07 -WISH FOR SHENRON- 2025-09-13 2025-09-19 125
FB08 -SAIYAN’s PRIDE- 2025-12-13 2025-12-12 122
FB09 -DUAL EVOLUTION- 2026-03-14 2026-03-13 123
FB10 -CROSS FORCE- 2026-06-13 2026-06-12 123

Two patterns define FB08’s place in the line. First, it is the set that locked in the current card-count era: from FB07 onward, every main booster has settled in the 122–125 type range, a clear step down from the 133–144 types the first five sets carried, with the Super Rare count holding at 15 rather than the original 12. FB08 is squarely part of that current generation — the newest of the four sets covered in this round of guides, arriving a full year after FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT- and carrying the Saiyan theme into the line’s leaner, more premium-weighted era.

Second, FB08 is the first set in the FB01–FB10 run where the English release date lands before the Japanese one — December 12 versus December 13, 2025. Every earlier set in the table above released in Japan first, by anywhere from a same-day tie (FB02) to nearly a week (FB03, FB07). FB08 flips that by a single day, per Bandai’s own confirmed dates on both regional product pages.

FB08’s immediate neighbours carried the line forward from here:

  • FB09 -DUAL EVOLUTION- (March 2026) introduced the “[Fusion Evolve]” and “[Ki]” mechanics along with Super Alt-Art versions for all three of its SCRs.
  • FB10 -CROSS FORCE- (June 2026) is the most recent main booster, carrying the Super Alt-Art SCR treatment that runs through the line.

For the complete set-by-set walkthrough of the line, start with our Japanese Fusion World booster box guide — it is the hub for everything Dragon Ball we ship. If you collect the manga-illustration side of the line as well, our Manga Booster guide covers SB01 and SB02, both released either side of FB08 in the same twelve-month window.

Japanese vs English FB08: Release Order and Pack Differences

The packaging and release timing are where FB08 gets genuinely interesting for importers.

Bandai’s English product page states the pack configuration plainly: 12 cards and 1 promotion code for the digital version per pack. Bandai has not published a per-pack figure on the Japanese FB08 product page we checked, so we are not going to guess at it; the only officially verified Japanese pack count anywhere in the line comes from FB01’s launch page, which specifies 6 cards plus 1 digital serial code — half the English pack size. Whether that ratio holds for FB08 specifically is something we confirm at quote time, not something we publish as fact.

Aspect Japanese FB08 English FB08
Release date December 13, 2025 December 12, 2025
Card text Japanese English
Per pack Not officially stated for FB08 (FB01 JP: 6 cards + code) 12 cards + digital code (official)
Packs per box Not stated on official product pages — confirmed when you order
Digital code Included in every pack, both languages

The one-day English-first gap also appears on later sets in our source data (FB09 and FB10 list English dates a day ahead of Japan), while earlier sets released in Japan first or same-day (FB02). Buyers assembling a Japanese Fusion World shelf alongside Japanese Pokemon and One Piece product typically want a single-language collection — that is the main reason the Japanese print gets requested.

Buying Tip

Because Bandai does not publish packs-per-box for Fusion World, listings around the web quote different box configurations for FB08. When you order through us, the exact box contents for the print you’re buying are confirmed on your quote — you are never guessing from a third-party listing.

Building a broader Dragon Ball order? Two more entry points:

  • The Dragon Ball collection holds every Fusion World set we handle — useful if you want FB08 alongside neighbouring sets from the timeline above.
  • Request a quote via Quick Order — one request can cover a mixed order across Dragon Ball, Pokemon, and One Piece.

One honest note on timing: FB08 is the newest of the four sets covered in this round of guides, and its SCR super alt-art and wider Leader alt-art spread are exactly the kind of details that move fast once a set gets attention. We would rather answer a quote request with “here’s what we can do this week” than have you wait for a moment that a named Saiyan set won’t give you.

Frequently Asked Questions

When was FB08 Saiyan’s Pride released?

The English version released first, on December 12, 2025, with the Japanese version following one day later on December 13, 2025 — one of the sets late in the line (alongside FB09 and FB10 in our source data) where the English date lands a day before the Japanese one. The official name is BOOSTER PACK -SAIYAN’s PRIDE- [FB08].

How many cards are in the FB08 set?

122 card types in total, per Bandai’s official breakdown: 5 Leaders, 40 Commons, 30 Uncommons, 30 Rares, 15 Super Rares, and 2 Secret Rares. Alt-Art versions across Leaders, SR, and Super Combo cards are included on top of the listed types.

What is the “super Alt-Art version of the SCR card” in FB08?

That is Bandai’s own official phrasing for the set’s headline alt-art treatment of the Secret Rare (SCR) tier — FB08’s rarest base rarity. Bandai’s page does not attach a print count or pull rate to it, so we don’t publish speculative figures for that card.

How many packs come in a Japanese FB08 booster box?

Bandai does not state packs-per-box on its official Fusion World product pages, so any figure you see online is retailer-reported. When you order from us, the exact box configuration for your print is confirmed on your quote before you pay.

What is the difference between Japanese and English FB08 packs?

English packs officially contain 12 cards plus a digital promotion code. Bandai has not published a per-pack count for Japanese FB08 specifically; the only officially confirmed Japanese figure in the line comes from FB01 (6 cards plus a digital serial code), so we confirm the exact FB08 configuration at quote time.
