Since its release in March 2024, Bonbon Drop stickers have recorded cumulative sales of approximately 20 million units, attracting significant attention in the sticker market where 50,000 units sold annually is considered a hit product. This time, the lineup includes three types: "Player Pin Badge Style Design," which is based on the pin badge style of TEAM26 players; "Player Koala Design," which features player koalas designed in the style of characters from Lotte's "Koala's March" snack, with the team logo and TEAM26 logo scattered throughout; and "Chance-kun Design," which features Chance-kun as the main character, along with Ma-kun, Rin-chan, Zoo-chan, and others.
The "Player Pin Badge Style Design" and "Player Koala Design" will be sold as a membership benefit (paid option) for paid members of the team's official fan club, "TEAM26," for the 2026 season.
