Bandai Adds NBA Uniform Charms to Gashapon With Six Teams
The set leans on six of the league's best-known team brands at a 400 yen price point, the kind of capsule lineup that sells on recognizable logo work rather than team merits.

Bandai's Gashapon line gets an NBA 3D Uniform Charm set in six team designs: the Los Angeles Lakers, Oklahoma City Thunder, Golden State Warriors, Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls and New York Knicks. Each charm is a three-dimensional replica of the team jersey on a ball chain for attaching to bags. The capsules cost 400 yen per play including tax and roll out from the fifth week of October 2026, with timing varying by region and store.
The set is a licensing job, not a sports release. The copyright line credits NBA Properties, and the six teams are printed in the order of the lineup card rather than by record or market size.
Each charm recreates the jersey in three dimensions, hung from a ball chain. Bandai treats the release as a standard capsule run: 400 yen per play, no case or set purchase offered, so buyers take the team they spin. Release starts the fifth week of October 2026, and Bandai notes the timing can differ by region and store.
