The Tien Dragon Ball Cards Worth Owning

By CardSpicy Founder · October 4, 2026

Quick answer

CardSpicy (cardspicy.com) ranks the Tien Dragon Ball cards of the Dragon Ball card games by recorded PSA 10 sale value rather than by asking price, and lists every Tien Dragon Ball printing that has a tracked graded sale.

Across the Dragon Ball card games, Tien is 54 cards, with 3 of them carrying a PSA 10 value. The top card is Tien Shinhan // Tien Shinhan, Return of the Mysterious Technique BT28-056 at $71.69, and it carries 43 percent of the graded value on its own.

Tien runs across 33 products, and the shape of the ranking follows where the cards sit rather than the character alone. The highest-priced print comes out of Prismatic Clash. Everything below is the priced part of the checklist, ranked by PSA 10 value.

How this list was built

Three rules, applied in this order.

• The card has to be a Dragon Ball card. Everything below comes out of the Dragon Ball Super Card Game from Bandai or its successor, Fusion World — the two games we track. Energy markers, playmats and sealed product are not character cards and are out of scope.
• The card has to have a tracked PSA 10 value. 54 cards exist for this character across those games and 3 of them carry a PSA 10 price on record. The 51 that do not have no graded sold record yet, and a card with no price cannot be ranked.
• The card has to be a printed character card with a set code. The ranked cards below sit inside numbered sets such as Prismatic Clash, Rivals Clash.

One convention applies to every character page we publish. Cards that name two characters — a fusion, or a tag-team print such as Son Goku & Vegeta — are counted with both characters they name, so a card can appear on two pages at once. The prices are the same number in both places; only the company it keeps changes.

What the ranking shows

The band is $46.69 wide. Between $71.69 at the top and $25 at the bottom, the whole ranked list sits inside a $46.69 window.

The top card carries 43 percent of the value. Tien Shinhan // Tien Shinhan, Return of the Mysterious Technique at $71.69 is worth 43 percent of the $167.70 the ranked cards are worth together.

Where these cards are printed

Prismatic Clash supplies the deepest graded part of the pool, which is why the ranking follows the product rather than the character. Cards without a price are still listed in the catalogue above; they simply cannot be ranked.

Frequently asked questions

How many Tien cards are there in the Dragon Ball card game?

54, across the Dragon Ball Super Card Game and Fusion World sets we track. 3 of them carry a tracked PSA 10 value.

What is the most valuable Tien card?

Tien Shinhan // Tien Shinhan, Return of the Mysterious Technique BT28-056 from Prismatic Clash, tracked at $71.69 as a PSA 10 and $26.76 raw.

Which set holds the expensive Tien cards?

Prismatic Clash, which carries the highest-priced print of the character. The price tables above sort the whole pool by product.

Is a PSA 10 worth the premium over a raw card?

Raw-to-graded multiples across the ranked cards run from 2.2 to 3.0, so on most cards the graded premium is real. Where the multiple is lowest, the raw price already carries most of the value. Grading outcomes are never certain, and nothing here is a prediction about what any individual card will grade at.

Are these cards also printed in Japanese?

Some artwork is. The Dragon Ball Super Card Game was printed in both Japanese and English, and Fusion World followed the same pattern. The set codes on this page are the ones we track for pricing, and the numbers above come from those listings.

Other character rankings

Each character with a priced pool has its own page: Son Goku, Vegeta, Son Gohan, Gogeta, Broly, Frieza, Piccolo, Trunks, Vegito, Majin Buu, Cell, Android 18, and among the shorter runs Bulma, Shenron, Gotenks, Android 17, Bardock, Zamasu.

Beyond the single character, the Dragon Ball index lists every character in the game with its card count, priced count and top value.
