Treasure Chest 2026: The Ultimate VeeFriends Collecting Experience Returns | What’s Inside & How to Buy
The Most Coveted Vault Opens Once Again
In 2025, VeeFriends debuted the VeeFriends Treasure Chest, which featured four total collectibles per box: 1 Gemstone Pin, 1 NGC graded coin, 1 Super Sticker, and 1 Classic Pin. The 2025 Treasure Chest became a fan-favorite, as it was met with strong demand from collectors and continues to be beloved. Now in 2026, Treasure Chest returns bigger and better than ever, containing as many as seventeen total collectibles.
Treasure Chest 2026 is not just the return of a fan-favorite release. In addition to a significant increase in the quantity of included collectibles, Treasure Chest 2026 introduces a brand-new product format: Holder Exclusive Release Offering (aka H.E.R.O.). The debut of H.E.R.O. introduces an entirely new layer to the VeeFriends collecting ecosystem. It’s a first-of-its-kind product format that brings exclusive collectibles and a premier version of the product to VeeFriends NFT holders.
The H.E.R.O. Treasure Chest comes packed with 17 items, including 3 exclusive Super Stickers and 2 exclusive Pins. The Standard edition of Treasure Chest 2026, which includes 13 collectibles (1 exclusive), will also be made available to select retail, wholesale, and break partners later in 2026.
The H.E.R.O. Treasure Chest will only be available during a preorder on shop.veefriends.com from April 2nd — April 9th. As this is a preorder, Treasure Chest 2026 is expected to be delivered in Q4 2026, with H.E.R.O. being shipped first before the Standard version.
What Is A Holder Exclusive Release Offering (H.E.R.O.)?
We’re rolling out H.E.R.O. for the first time with Treasure Chest 2026. This will be the debut of the H.E.R.O. structure: preorder access, favorable pricing, extra items, holder-exclusive collectibles with some of the rarest rarities, and exclusive surprises, all in one chest. Please note that this is a preorder that will last from April 2nd — April 9th, with delivery expected in Q4 of 2026, with H.E.R.O. shipped first.
How To Buy A VeeFriends NFT So You’re Eligible For H.E.R.O.
The preorder wave for H.E.R.O. will only be available to VeeFriends NFT holders. If you do not own a VeeFriends NFT, you will not be able to purchase the H.E.R.O. Treasure Chest. However, VeeFriends NFTs can be purchased on OpenSea via credit card (through MoonPay), or crypto. If you have any questions, you can set up a 1:1 call for assistance on how to buy an NFT.
