These four stickers belong to a 1998 Enix collectible set based on Dragon Quest Monsters, each numbered and lettered to mark its place in the series. The character designs come from Akira Toriyama, who drew the monsters for the Dragon Quest franchise throughout its history. The selection here spans the full range of the series — from its most recognizable creature to some of its lesser-seen inhabitants.

Slime — 009 B

Slime 009 B Dragon Quest Monsters Sticker 1998

Number 009 B in the set, this sticker features the Slime — the blue, teardrop-shaped creature first introduced as the opening enemy of the original 1986 Dragon Quest. The Slime has since become the franchise’s mascot and one of the most widely recognized characters in Japanese video game history.

About This Collection

All four stickers were issued by Enix in 1998, the same year Dragon Quest Monsters launched in Japan for Game Boy Color. Seeing the Slime — arguably the face of the entire franchise — sitting alongside less familiar creatures like Tortoceratops and MadPlant is a reminder of just how wide the Dragon Quest bestiary runs, and how consistently Toriyama’s designs give each inhabitant its own character.
