Urgent warning issued as dangerous fake Labubu dolls flood markets: How to know if your Labubu doll is original

To verify if your Labubu toy is original, carefully examine the features, quality, and packaging of the box and the doll. Look out for the Pop Mart logo stamp, which will be present on the left foot, and a QR code will also be present on the box. Also, check for consistent colours, crisp printing, and seamless stitching. (Image Credits: Pinterest) A surge of fake Labubu dolls , popular collectibles created by artist Kasing Lung, has prompted a consumer warning in the UK. The Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) has cautioned that these counterfeit toys may pose a serious choking hazard to young children. The legitimate Labubu plushie, sold by Chinese toymaker Pop Mart , has exploded in popularity, making authentic versions scarce. The toy's viral success has led to a market flooded with unsafe fakes -- in both online and offline markets. How to Spot a Fake Labubu Doll To ensure you are purchasing a safe and authentic toy, the CTSI recommends that consumers follow these key tips: Examine the Packaging: Legitimate products sold in the UK will have a UKCA or CE mark on the packaging. The box should also list a UK-based importer or manufacturer and include proper warnings and instructions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo Look for Authenticity Markers: Genuine Pop Mart Labubu dolls have several features to help you verify their authenticity. Check for a holographic sticker and a scannable QR code that links directly to the official Pop Mart website. Newer editions also have a UV stamp on one of the doll's feet. Check the Doll's Appearance: Counterfeit dolls often have tell-tale signs of poor quality. Look for overly vibrant colors, poor stitching, and an incorrect number of teeth. Authentic Labubus have exactly nine teeth. Avoid "Bargains": While the lower price of a fake might be tempting, these dolls often lack proper safety checks and can contain dangerous materials or parts that could easily detach, creating a choking risk. Buy from Reputable Sellers: The safest way to ensure you're getting a genuine product is to purchase from official retailers or well-known stores. Avoid buying from unfamiliar online vendors or unverified third-party sellers on online marketplaces. The warning comes after Pop Mart temporarily suspended UK in-store sales in May due to chaotic crowd surges. The dolls' popularity has also led to theft, including a recent incident in Los Angeles where thieves stole thousands of dollars worth of stock. AI Masterclass for Students.
