Japan's TAITO PRIZE brand is set to release a new Dragon Quest prize figure, the "Dragon Quest AM Man-Eating Tree Planter ~Cultivation Kit with Seeds~." This item transforms the series' familiar monster, the Man-Eating Tree (じんめんじゅ), into an actual cultivable character-themed planter. It's slated to appear as a crane game prize starting late July 2026.
The Man-Eating Tree is a tree-type monster that appears throughout the Dragon Quest series. This product ingeniously combines the monster's iconic face on its trunk with a planter, presented as a "cultivation kit with seeds." The kit includes parsley seeds, allowing collectors to not only display the item but also cultivate it, letting the Man-Eating Tree sprout a lush head of green leaves and seamlessly blending its monster design with practical plant-growing functionality.
According to the official product page, this item measures approximately 11 cm and comes in one design. It is expected to be available in Japanese arcades and other prize channels starting late July 2026. As it's a prize figure, the actual release date may vary by location.
