UCC Ueshima Coffee Products Turned into Gacha Mascots from November 2026
UCC is licensing its packaged-coffee and cafe iconography into the capsule-toy format, with the early sales window placed inside its own DRIP POD event rather than a general retail launch.

Takara Tomy Arts is releasing five UCC Ueshima Coffee Mejirushi Gacha Mascots at capsule vending machines nationwide in November 2026, priced at 300 yen per play. The lineup is the Ueshima Coffee Shop Copper Mug, GOLD SPECIAL, BLACK Unsweetened, Milk Coffee, and DRIP POD YOUBI & Capsule. Each comes with a silicone ring for attaching to umbrellas and bottles. Advance sales are planned at the UCC Capsule Coffee Shop event at Tokyo Midtown Hibiya from October 9 to 12, 2026.
The five charms run about 25 to 30 millimeters and turn familiar UCC packaging into palm-size reproductions. The BLACK Unsweetened charm copies the gold top and silver bottom of the can, and the Milk Coffee charm keeps the 250g slim can's brown, white, and red design. GOLD SPECIAL reproduces the wrinkles and print of the package bag, while DRIP POD YOUBI & Capsule uses clear parts for the water tank and includes a Honduras & Colombia capsule charm.
The Copper Mug charm paints on the mug's metallic luster and the look of the iced coffee inside, and a tag with the shop logo comes with it. The event runs from October 9 to 12, 2026 at Tokyo Midtown Hibiya, where visitors can try DRIP POD capsules through a coffee gacha format and taste 14 coffee and sweets pairings.
