Starbucks Joyful Capsule 2026 turns familiar drinks and pastries into collectible plush charms. The surprise capsules launch in Tokyo on August 2, according to the Baltimore Chronicle.
How Much Does Starbucks Joyful Capsule 2026 Cost?
Each Starbucks Joyful Capsule costs ¥880, including tax. Sales begin on August 2, 2026, which marks Starbucks’ 30th anniversary in Japan.
The collection will initially be available at 19 selected Starbucks stores across Tokyo. Participating locations include stores in Shinjuku, Shibuya, Harajuku, Ikebukuro and Ginza.
Starbucks will limit purchases to 2 capsules per transaction during the initial sales period. Stock shortages may occur, while telephone inventory checks will not be accepted.

The charms measure approximately 50 to 80 millimetres, depending on the design. Each model recreates recognisable details, including whipped cream, caramel sauce and Starbucks drinkware.
