Labubus are coming for your handbag — here's how to buy one
Labubu dolls are taking over. There's no question about it. If you're yet to spot one in the wild, it won't be long until you see a small (slightly creepy-looking) fluffy doll adorning a designer handbag. It's Hong Kong-born illustrator Kasing Lung to thank for the trend. Inspired by Nordic myths, he created the mystical creatures for his story series The Monsters, which were then turned into the plush dolls we know (or loathe) by Chinese toy company Pop Mart. Characterized by their rabbit-like ears, large eyes, and menacing-looking teeth, Labubus are commonly sold in 'blind boxes' meaning the exact design is chosen at random and remains a mystery until it's unwrapped. While bag charms or cuddly toys aren't anything new, it's hard to ignore the influx in popularity of Labubus which have become a fashion statement loved by the likes of Blackpink's Lisa, Rihanna, and Dua Lipa. But the trend has certainly divided opinion. Those in favor of the small, fluffy monsters though will know that the craze has caused demand to skyrocket, making them increasingly hard to come by — the cost of buying one on a resale platform ranges from $350 but can exceed $1,000. Selling out at lightning speed, you'll find all of the details on where to buy one for yourself below. Where to buy Labubus in the US Constant stock demands mean the Labubu resale market is booming but exercise caution as knockoffs (coined Lafufus) are on the rise. Stock is currently sold out online, but The Independent has reached out to Pop Mart for comment on its release date schedule. What intel the company provides is available on its Instagram, where it states that new releases are available in stores at 10 a.m. Eastern time every Friday and online at 10 p.m. ET every Thursday. That said, it appears that daily drops occur at around 10 p.m. ET. You could also try snagging one on Pop Now where drops happen more frequently, but be prepared to act fast. While there is no guarantee they will have stock, it's also worth trying your local Pop Mart. As it stands, the only figure from The Monsters series available online is a member-exclusive, Pop Bean The Monsters ( The mega Labubu 1000% tony tony chopper ($1,259.90, is said to be available to buy at the Pop Mart store in San Diego, but stock is limited.
