Labubu fever is everywhere
Labubu, the unusual collectable figure from Pop Mart’s “The Monsters” series, has become a worldwide sensation. Both collectors and celebrities love these adorable little monsters for their unique designs and quality construction. Even though there are plenty of genuine Labubus, there is also a significant swath of fakes being sold online that are often characterised as "Lafufu." The Lafufu fakes often resemble Labubu, but the quality, details, and construction usually fall short.
How to Spot a Fake Labubu?
Counterfeiters are getting smarter, but you can still protect yourself by watching out for:
- Check the packaging: Real Labubu figures come in boxes printed with sharp, clear designs. If the box has faded colours, wrong fonts, or spelling mistakes, it’s a red flag.
-
Look at the face and paint: Real Labubus have very neat paint, bright colours, and detailed expressions. Fake Lafufu toys often look messy: the teeth might be uneven, the eyes can be too large or too small, and colours can be dull.
-
Feel the weight and material: Original Labubu toys feel solid but smooth. Fake ones often feel lighter or rougher, and may even have sharp plastic edges.
-
Check for the official mark: The Monsters brand usually adds its logo or the artist’s name somewhere on the toy or packaging. If this mark is missing, unclear, or spelt wrong, it’s likely a fake.
-
Buy from trusted shops: Always buy from official stores, artist booths, or trusted collectors. If the price seems too low to be true, it probably is.
-
Tooth count: A real Labubu has exactly nine teeth. Lafufus often have extra or uneven ones.

Fake toys don’t just hurt your collection, they also have poor quality. A fake "Lafufu" often has rough paint, bad materials, and can even smell like plastic chemicals. Worse, some fake sellers charge the same price as the real ones. If you want to keep your collection special, it’s important to know how to tell the difference.
