Kinder Surprise Christmas 2026 toys: 12 baubles, codes and status
The Kinder Surprise Christmas 2026 toys are twelve Christmas tree ornaments: each figure sits inside a bauble folded from a shiny printed strip, with a coloured hook on top. The codes run from VS302 to VS313. As of 11 October 2026 the series is in Kinder's own toy catalogue for the UK and Canada, but none of the collector shops and databases we checked has listed it yet.
All twelve, with pictures and notes, are in our Kinder Surprise Christmas 2026 set, where you can tick off the ones you have. This article covers what is happening with the series right now.
All 12 Kinder egg Christmas toys and their codes

The names are descriptive; Kinder's catalogue gives only codes. It highlights three features: metallised baubles, new figures and glow in the dark.

Where the series is now
We checked five places on 11 October 2026.
| Where we looked | What is there |
|---|---|
| Kinder toy catalogue, UK and Canada | the series is listed with all 12 codes |
| eierlei-shop.de, Germany | no results for code VS302 |
| ue-ei-punkt.de, Germany | sections for Christmas 2024 and Christmas 2025, none for 2026 |
| astrocollection.it, Italy | no results for code VS302 |
| kinders.arnapou.net, France | four series in the 2026/2027 season, no Christmas one |
So the toys are not yet on sale as singles from collectors. That does not prove the eggs are not in shops anywhere — these are simply the places we checked.
When to expect them
There is no confirmed date, and the catalogue listing is not a release date. The only guide is previous years in Germany: according to the collectors' news feed Unser-Sammler-Team, Kinder's Christmas range started arriving in shops on 27 September 2024 and on 25 October 2025. We have no comparable source for the UK.
How it differs from 2024 and 2025
All twelve 2026 toys are new and carry new codes. Last year was different: in the Christmas 2025 series only one toy was new and the other eleven were reissues. If you collected the earlier Christmas toys, there are no repeats this time.
Kinder Surprise Maxi Christmas 2026: snowmen and Youmitik girls
The 100 g Kinder Surprise Maxi Christmas 2026 eggs came out in Germany in October 2026: Unser-Sammler-Team reported them on 10 October, Kinder's German Christmas page shows both eggs with their toys, and the German online shop World of Sweets was selling both on 19 October. The classic Maxi Ei Classic holds four snowmen on a sledge, a snowmobile, a bobsleigh and a snow tube; the pink Maxi Ei Rosa holds four Youmitik girls, each with a hoop. Both series are on ColleX: Kinder Surprise Maxi Christmas 2026: Snowmen and Kinder Surprise Maxi Youmitik Christmas 2026. No codes have been published for these figures yet, and they are not part of the twelve VS302–VS313 baubles.
Kinder Surprise advent calendar 2026
For 2026, the advent calendars with Kinder Surprise eggs we have information on are German and Austrian. Kinder's German website lists the Kinder Überraschung & Friends calendar (370 g): behind its 24 doors are 8 Kinder Surprise eggs, 5 hollow chocolate figures, 6 Kinder Chocolate bars and 10 Kinder Chocolate minis, and it comes with a Santa hat. A review on adventskalender-land.de (15 September 2026) gives the same contents. Kinder does not say which toys are in the eggs, and we have not checked the UK range.
Austria has a different one, the kinder Überraschung Adventskalender with 24 Kinder Surprise eggs (480 g). That is how the Austrian online shop piccantino.at lists it; it was sold out there on 18 October 2026, and the shop gives no year.
On 18 October we also re-checked two of the collector shops above: eierlei-shop.de still returns nothing for VS302, and ue-ei-punkt.de still has no section for Christmas 2026.
Unconfirmed: the Christmas set inside the Austrian calendar
The German collector site eierlei.de reported on 12 October 2026 that Austrian Kinder Surprise advent calendars contain the Christmas 2026 set, with toys in the remaining eggs. Its source is an eBay auction; the report gives no codes, so it does not show whether these are the VS302–VS313 baubles. eierlei also expects the Christmas set to reach Germany, in regular eggs and other seasonal packs. We had found no second source by 18 October 2026.
More Kinder at Christmas
A separate story is the Kinder Pokémon chocolate calendar: what is in it, and why there is no Pokémon card calendar this year. Every series of the year is in Kinder Joy & Kinder Surprise 2026: all collections, and the full catalogue is in the Kinder section.
Frequently asked questions
How many Kinder Surprise Christmas 2026 toys are there?
Twelve, with the codes VS302–VS313: Santa, seven elves, a gingerbread man, a penguin, a reindeer and a snowman. Each is a tree bauble with a hook.
Are the Kinder Christmas 2026 toys in UK shops yet?
We have no confirmation as of 11 October 2026. The series is in Kinder's UK toy catalogue, which shows the toys but not a release date.
When do Kinder Christmas eggs usually come out?
In Germany the Christmas range started arriving on 27 September in 2024 and on 25 October in 2025, according to Unser-Sammler-Team. No date has been given for 2026.
