BucketSquad Unveils Limited-Edition My Hero Academia Basketball Collection
BucketSquad has officially announced a brand-new collaboration with My Hero Academia, introducing a limited-edition collection of premium basketballs inspired by some of the anime’s most popular heroes and Quirks.
The new range features four unique indoor basketball designs that combine performance-ready construction with artwork celebrating Class 1-A and several of the series’ most iconic characters.
My Hero Academia follows the story of Izuku Midoriya and his classmates at U.A. High School as they train to become professional heroes in a world where superhuman abilities known as Quirks have become commonplace.
Leading the collection is the “My Hero Academia Class 1A Basketball,” which celebrates the next generation of heroes with artwork featuring Izuku Midoriya, Tsuyu Asui, Ochaco Uraraka, Tenya Iida, Shoto Todoroki, Katsuki Bakugo and Minoru Mineta.
Its vibrant colour palette is inspired directly by the anime and has been designed to make the basketball stand out both on the court and as a display piece for collectors.
The collaboration also includes the “My Hero Academia Explosion Basketball,” which draws inspiration from Katsuki Bakugo’s explosive Quirk through bold graphics and an energetic design created to capture the character’s intense fighting style.
Joining the lineup is the “My Hero Academia One For All Basketball,” which takes its inspiration from Izuku Midoriya and incorporates lightning-themed graphics that reflect the immense power of the One For All Quirk.
Completing the collection is the “My Hero Academia Half-Cold Half-Hot Basketball,” inspired by Shoto Todoroki and featuring a striking split design that combines fiery orange tones with icy blue graphics to represent his dual-element Quirk.
Each basketball has been produced with a premium textured finish and embossed detailing to provide an authentic feel during play while also offering the quality expected from a collectible release.
All four basketballs are intended for indoor use and measure approximately 74.9 cm in circumference, matching official men’s Size 7 specifications.
The collection has been created for anime fans, collectors, and basketball players alike, combining practical performance with eye-catching designs inspired by the world of My Hero Academia.
The My Hero Academia Class 1A Basketball, Explosion Basketball, One For All Basketball, and Half-Cold Half-Hot Basketball are each priced at $85 (approx. ¥12,500 / £63 GBP).
All four My Hero Academia x BucketSquad basketballs are limited-edition releases that will only be available while stocks last through the official BucketSquad online store.
