In anticipation of the 2026 World Cup, Google has introduced a limited-edition ‘Chrome Dino FC’ Android figurine, now available on its merchandise store. This special release is part of a broader football-themed collection celebrating the global tournament.
The ‘Android Figurine x Chrome Dino FC’ is a 3-inch vinyl figure that merges Google’s Android mascot with the iconic Chrome Dino from the offline browser game. The design features a pixelated aesthetic reminiscent of retro football kits, complete with a monochrome T-Rex emblem and a classic 32-panel football accessory. The figurine’s posable arms allow for dynamic displays, though the legs remain fixed.
Accompanying the figurine, Google’s ‘Chrome Dino FC’ collection includes a classic-cut jersey priced at £48, a matching fan scarf for £36, and a size 5 football available for £27. Each item in the collection embraces a vintage football club style, with the Chrome Dino serving as the central mascot and emblem.
Initially, these items were exclusive to the UK Google Merchandise Store, with the figurine priced at £30 (approximately $38 USD). However, the collection has now been made available in the United States, where the figurine is offered at a more affordable $25, providing fans an opportunity to own a piece of World Cup memorabilia ahead of the US Men’s National Team’s upcoming matches.
Google describes the figurine as a blend of the legendary Chrome offline Dino FC and tournament football energy, bringing pixelated retro charm straight to your workspace.
Given the popularity of previous limited-edition releases, it’s anticipated that the ‘Chrome Dino FC’ collection will sell out quickly. Fans and collectors are encouraged to act promptly to secure these unique items.
This initiative highlights Google’s creative approach to engaging with global events, seamlessly integrating its digital icons into tangible products that resonate with both tech enthusiasts and sports fans. As the World Cup approaches, such collaborations between technology and sports culture are likely to enhance fan experiences and foster a sense of community.
