Probably the most profitable (if not the most powerful) player in the entire DragonBall Z world, the immense Capsule Corporation makes a staggering array of useful devices, from vehicles to personal electronics and robots. From his mansion headquarters in the Western City, Dr. Briefs, Bulma’s dad controls this vast worldwide manufacturing empire that has managed to stamp its ubiquitous C-in-C logo on almost every technological device in DragonBall Z. Bulma also works in the capsule corporation. Trunks in Gt later become the president of the capsule corporation.

Q. What are Capsules?

A. Capsules are small (about 3" long") cylinders with push-plungers on one end. Depress the plunger and in moments, whatever is in the capsule expands to it's oringinal mass and dimensions (its generally considered a smart move to throw the capsule away from yourself immediatly after pushing the plunger). Push a button on the side of the expanded object and it-bomph!-becomes a capsule again. While in capsule form, an object has virtually no weight, and takes up only the space of the capsule. Capsules are always numbered so that their owners can tell what they're pulling out of their pockets (it's bad form to expand a house in a crowded space). However, capsulization is an expensive process, and very few people can afford more than a couple of capsules of their own. lucky Bulma (whose father, Dr. Briefs owns the Capsule Corp.), actually carries a pocketbook full!

Q. What comes in Capsules?

A. Everything! Besides its own vast array of products, the Capsule Corp also encapsulates other companies' goods; food, clothes, vehicles, mecha, houses, weapons, tools personal electronics, even (much to the delight of Master Roshi), adult magazines. Those with enough money can even have speacial items encapsulated.
