Mickey & Friends are getting behind all 32 NFL teams in a new Disney range, alongside merchandise celebrating Super Bowl LXI in Los Angeles. The season-long collection spans clothing, collectibles and accessories.

Announced on 29 October 2026, the range offers fans two ways to show their support: team-themed gear and products celebrating the championship game. Champion, Disney Pinnacle and FOCO each bring a different take.

Team colours and Super Bowl collectibles

  • Disney | Champion: Mickey & Friends Super Bowl LXI T-shirts and crewnecks for adults and young people.
  • Disney Pinnacle by Dapper Labs: Mickey & Friends Super Bowl LXI digital pins.
  • Disney | FOCO: team-themed plush toys, clip-on plush toys, bobbleheads, figurines and clear stadium bags. The collection launches on FOCO.com on 29 October 2026.

For collectors, a launch date does not necessarily mean an item is ready to ship. In its 29 October coverage, Laughing Place reported pre-orders for bags representing individual teams, Mickey Mouse bobbleheads, and Mickey and Minnie plush toys. It is worth checking whether an item is available to order or ready for dispatch.

Selected products will be available through NFLShop.com, Fanatics.com, DisneyStore.com and selected retailers across the US. The range will also expand throughout the season, with further Mickey & Friends releases from Crocs, Just Play, New Era, WinCraft and Champion.

How this differs from Champion’s earlier collection

Champion’s Super Bowl products are separate from an earlier Disney-NFL project launched in 2026. The Disney | Champion NFL Collection debuted at Fanatics Fest NYC with eight team-and-character pairings; all 32 had been revealed by 24 August. That collaboration, involving Fanatics, drew on Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars—not just Mickey & Friends.

The earlier collection paired Woody with the Dallas Cowboys, Baloo with the Chicago Bears and Chewbacca with the Green Bay Packers. The choices went beyond matching names or appearances: Disney said Chewbacca was paired with the Packers because of their loyalty in cold, snowy conditions, drawing a comparison between Hoth and Lambeau.

Every pairing was inspired by the qualities, traditions and fan culture that define each NFL team, as well as the shared personalities, traits and stories that connect these teams with beloved Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars characters.

In a July interview with Laughing Place, Healey also recalled that the offensive linemen nicknamed the “Hogs” inspired the choice of Hamm. The October range takes a different approach: Mickey & Friends appear in team colours, while separate products celebrate Super Bowl LXI.

Part of Disney’s road to the Super Bowl

The merchandise is part of Disney and ESPN’s “We’re Going to the Super Bowl LXI” celebration. Disney’s “Super Bowl What’s Next” campaign marks its 40th anniversary this season. Super Bowl LXI will be shown on ESPN and ABC and streamed on Disney+ for the first time in the US. The range brings the football connection to fans throughout the season, not just on championship weekend.
