Two new food items, designed to be enjoyed at baseball stadiums and similar venues, will also be released. The "Baseball Meat Chili Hot Dog" features a sausage, meat chili, and sour cream sauce served in a brioche bun, with grilled vegetables and cheese for added flavor. The "Baseball Popcorn & Pretzel" is a snack combining baseball-shaped butter popcorn and pretzels, packaged in a large container decorated with Bearista. In addition, the package contains 32 different Bearista stickers showing a variety of baseball-themed poses, randomly included for each of the eight KBO teams.


Collaboration merchandise will also be available. The "Can Cooler Tumbler," which functions as both a tumbler and a can cooler, comes with a keychain designed after the team slogan and cheering towel, making it a useful item for watching games in person. Other products include the "Bearista Keychain" featuring Bearista in each of the eight team uniforms, the "Bearista Cap Mug" depicting Bearista in each team's baseball cap, and the "Straw Charm Set" designed with team logos.
